Our faithful readers may have realized we’ve been rather quiet on this blog for, well, too long! In our defense, we’ve been very busy with some news that just became public yesterday: Specific Software has been acquired by Zywave, Inc., a leading provider of software-as-a-service (SaaS) enterprise solutions for insurance brokerages.
You can read the official press release on Zywave’s corporate news page (pdf format) or on the Specific Software site.
If you’re not familiar with Zywave, get to know more about the company at zywave.com, on Twitter, on Facebook, and on LinkedIn.
On a personal note, I’m pleased to report that Zywave is welcoming all former Specific Software employees into its family, and we’ll still be operating out of the Nashville area. Since Zywave is based in Milwaukee, my transition priorities include acclimating the staff to my Southern accent and expressions and introducing everyone I can to the finer points of sweet iced tea, the fuel of choice for at least a few of us here in the Nashville office. I’m sure the staff in Milwaukee will have some recommendations for us, too – perhaps starting with our acquisition of some real winter coats for our trips to the home office.
As always, we encourage our clients to let us know any questions.
