It required a robust solution that could manage the compensation of sales personnel at their retail stores, and empower its partners and resellers to improve the transparency of commissions for B2B resellers. Tasked with keeping up with customer demands, and in an effort to maintain market share, Orange wanted a solution that would face the challenges of motivating and securing the loyalty of their sales force.
