PITTSBURGH and SAN JOSE, Calif., March 26 /PRNewswire/ -- Landslide Technologies and on-demand collaboration applications leader WebEx, now part of Cisco (Nasdaq: CSCO), today announced, Landslide Victory, a new sales application based on the WebEx Connect platform designed to help salespeople stay focused on moving deals through their pipeline and improving sales production.

"Businesses now have a highly collaborative sales platform deserving of their commitment to world-class selling. Today's announcement takes Landslide to the next level by extending the solution to the WebEx Connect community to connect sales with buyers around the globe and across technological and organizational boundaries."

"There is no better way to help our WebEx Connect customers grow their business than by closing more deals," said Shankar Iyer, vice president, WebEx Connect Ecosystem, Cisco WebEx. "Landslide's solution keeps salespeople focused on moving deals through their pipeline at a more consistent rate and providing great value in allowing our customers to connect and collaborate real-time with sales."

Landslide Victory is one of the many applications users will be able to access through WebEx Connect.
