Good luck guys!! I know I am going to regret this but have sold the last few as portfolio completely messed up with so many duds lately :((

[euclid5] 13/9/2012 13:39

ok thanks again PONA

[duncandisorderly] 13/9/2012 13:34

Here we go!

[p o n a] 13/9/2012 13:31

The vast majority of CRM providers have inbuilt functionality to send, receive and record e-mail activity, but only a very limited number have similar functionality when it comes to telephone communication, which is where we see the potential in Synety."

[p o n a] 13/9/2012 13:29

There are similar companies.. but only a few that ZEN will be specialising in. See the admissions document and the link

[euclid5] 13/9/2012 13:18

Ok thank you PONA - are there other AIM or private co's already in this field giving direct competition to ZEN?

Is Globo offering something along these line - they do SaaS I belive / GEONG springs to mind also

Here's the admission document of the new company :

[p o n a] 13/9/2012 12:50

The thing I like about the new directors and their near 1/3rd holding of this company is that they voluntarily agreed to an 18 month lock out - so they will not sell their stock for 1.5 years.

The company is a clean outfit now. Cash rich which can be utilised to win orders and create lucrative partnerships. In fact they've hinted that we should expect news on that front in due course.

At the current share price, the cash more than supports the market cap.... the upside is IMO potentially enormous. I was a software engineer in my younger days and I know the margins are mind boggling, if you get the product right. Once you get the clients, the recurring income substantially boosts the cash pile without much effort. The guys running the new company have experience of building value with such software outfits. I am confident they can do the same here.

That's why I am buying up whatever slack stock is available at c3.5p (which has become very hard in the past few weeks).

thanks euclid... i am full out of MOIL now. Made a very healthy profit. Some of the profits went into here (that 100k @ 3.52p is mine). I hold 2.1m of these now (average price 3.4p)

Dont have timeline for the farmouts...however interims are out this month so should get some idea. The latest broker note stated that it was going well...and even suggested a pay back of past costs of around (if I can remember correctly) £8m once farm outs are done.

[euclid5] 13/9/2012 12:31

ok thank you for this - very interesting to be able to access Bullhorn's clients from their database

may look at getting into these just on that basis alone

PONA - well done on MOIL - 33p today - have you a rough idea when LOGP will complete farm out agreements? - thanks

[pjj71] 13/9/2012 12:29

im here and holding firm!

[duncandisorderly] 13/9/2012 12:26

Bullhorn has 100,000 customers and was bought by Vista Equity Partners not so long ago and they are huge.I don't know what their customer base is but you can bet it's substantial.

Since Synety's sales launch earlier this year, Synety has been approached by a number of CRM providers enquiring about integration. One such enquiry came from Bullhorn which is a global leader in recruitment CRM software. Synety has integrated its services into Bullhorn, and will be launching the service to Bullhorn's customers in September 2012. Synety has also integrated with Lunar CRM, a smaller company providing Cloud CRM software for independent financial advisors. The New Board expects to make further announcements on CRM partners in the near future.


under 3.1 Reasons for Acquisition

Bullhorn's integration of Synety's platform and desire to sell the platform to their customer base was a significant factor in the Board's decision. The Board believes that this demonstrates that there is an appetite by sizeable CRM players for Synety's services – Bullhorn's relatively large customer base in the US should allow Synety an opportunity to expand into the US in the near future.

and under "The Business"

CloudCall gives organisations who want to reduce costs while increasing productivity the ability to make, receive and record calls from existing software such as email clients (Outlook, Gmail), web browsers (Internet Explorer, Chrome, Mozilla), smartphones (iPhone,) and CRM/ERP platforms (Bullhorn, Lunar CRM). CloudCall Click does not require a change of phone system but can complement an existing PBX making the service scalable.

[euclid5] 13/9/2012 11:54

can I ask what connection has Bullhorn got to do with ZEN

[duncandisorderly] 13/9/2012 09:30

Agreed,I read on the Synety website that they are opening an office in the States in a couple of weeks,happy days!

[p o n a] 13/9/2012 09:25

I see what you mean. It is an enormous opportunity that has opened for them. I'm very confident that with US offices being established we will get contract news flowing in due course. These guys are proven business creators in the software sector. Very confident in my holding and happy to sit it out as they deliver going forward.

[duncandisorderly] 13/9/2012 09:20

Look at my post 5737 and see what you think.

[p o n a] 13/9/2012 09:01

what do you mean ?

[duncandisorderly] 13/9/2012 08:56

Pona,what did you think about the Vista Equity partners item?

[p o n a] 13/9/2012 08:52

still here dunc. nothing much to say until we get updates on the new company.

[duncandisorderly] 13/9/2012 08:47

Only eight working days left before the new company is up and running.Where has everyone gone or am I the only one left holding the baby.
