Update: Mondo had declared itself bankrupt late 2009, but appears to have merged with another Danish MSCRM consulting company called KeyZone. Here’s the Google translation link.

A new accelerator for Microsoft Dynamics CRM was released today, and you could say it’s a unique one. If you go to the CodePlex site, you’ll only be able to download a whitepaper from this page; that’s because this sales methodology is proprietary. There’s a separate registration page for the actual download. So, if your firm or client subscribes to the Sales Performance International (SPI) Solution Selling sales methodology, then this one is right up your alley. Oops, I almost forgot the ®.
What I like about this accelerator is that it incorporates other Microsoft technologies like Silverlight and Windows Workflow Foundation to add value to Microsoft Dynamics CRM. What is not so nice is that it requires a pricey subscription, in comparison to the other free Accelerators.
One option is to deploy it On-Premise. It’s free for 3 users or less, but as a proprietary sales methodology, you’ll have to start paying to get more users. This accelerator will be available for On-Demand (hosted by Mondo from Denmark).
Subscription options for this sales methodology:
1. Hosted by Mondo (on-demand), customers pay a license subscription fee per user per month which includes a Mondo hosted subscription to Microsoft Dynamics CRM.
2. On-premise customers may download and install the accelerator on their own servers. On-premise customers have two solution options: the basic and professional editions. The Basic edition can be downloaded and deployed at no cost. The Professional edition requires a license to be purchased for each user; this license fee includes a 2-year software assurance (support) package.
To download the free copy of the basic edition, as well as the installation guide and user manual, go to this Mondo.dk link and register.
The SPI "Pain Chain". Ouch!
