GOLD 2020 Stevie® Award Winner – Our First Award!

[TORONTO, ONTARIO] – May 18, 2020 – GROUNDHOGG™ INC was named the winner of a GOLD Stevie® Award in the TECH START UP OF THE YEAR – SOFTWARE category in The 18th Annual American Business Awards® today.

“I feel this is a hugely important win for WordPress developers as a whole. It clearly demonstrates recognition for innovation in the open source sector. It’s a win for our community!”

Adrian Tobey, CEO Groundhogg Inc.

Groundhogg™ offers a new approach to CRM & Marketing automation for WordPress users. The new solution makes CRM and Marketing Automation tools easily accessible for small to large businesses who prefer an integrated approach to marketing and CRM. With fewer moving parts, easy adoption and competitive pricing, it has many advantages over legacy SaaS providers – for both marketers and users – that translate into reduced complexity, enhanced reliability and big savings.

More than 3,600 nominations from organizations of all sizes and in virtually every industry were submitted this year for consideration in a wide range of categories, including Startup of the Year, Executive of the Year, Best New Product or Service of the Year, Marketing Campaign of the Year, Live Event of the Year, and App of the Year, among others.  GROUNDHOGG™ INC was nominated in the TECH START UP OF THE YEAR – SOFTWARE category. 

Nancy Houle, Partner Manager for Groundhogg™ Inc. could barely contain her excitement. “It’s been amazing”, she declared. “We started with zero customers just over 18 months ago, and now Groundhogg™ has over 1000 installations and is used in 30 countries.  We compete with many of the largest players in the CRM and marketing automation industry and the response to our software and service has been overwhelmingly positive. The message I am hearing is very clear; Groundhogg™ is doing something very innovative with clear advantages that can support new innovation. As a young company, this is invaluable feedback.”

They work so hard to find and bring our attention to the continued progress they need and want. They guide us on how to create better user experiences and the product improvements they require to succeed. Without our community, it would be impossible to grow.
