MSP Sales Automation: Cloud Startup Zomentum Raises $4.1 Million

Share

Zomentum, a startup cloud software company focused on MSP sales tools, has raised $4.1 million in seed funding from Accel and SAIF Partners.  Zomentum is led by Co-founders Shruti GhatgeRahil Shah. Plus, Get Channeled's Ted Roller -- the well-known virtual channel chief -- is advising the company on partner strategy.

Ghatge and Roller provide more details about the business in this ChannelE2E Video Interview:

Among the key takeaways: Zomentum is an "all-in-one" solution built for IT channel partners to drive sales motions, create proposals, automate repetitive tasks, and grow revenue, the company says.

Instead of fitting into any one MSP software category -- CRM, sales automation and proposals, etc. -- Zomentum is striving to define its own category while integrating with familiar PSA (professional services automation) software like ConnectWise Manage, Datto Autotask PSA, Kaseya BMS and Synchro.
