Organisation Description

Grow Live Limited is a business established to exploit the significant opportunities in the fast growing data capture and mobile workforce market using “Intelligent” reporting software that allows smart informed decision making.
Now in its fourth year of development our lead product is Captua (www.captua.com) Captua is fully market ready and has already started to make inroads capturing new customers across it’s various applications including NBC Universal, Statesman Travel, Totes, Whats On Publication’s and Planet Energy to name a few and is undertaking a number of strategic case studies with Paisley Grammar School, Breadalbane Tourist Exchange and Broomhill Sports Club. In addition Captua CRM has beaten off competition from Salesforce.com; Netsuite and Microsoft to win a prestigious contract with a leading privately owned Communications company.
Captua is a SaaS (Software as a Service) data capture platform which utilises leading edge wireless and mobile technology to gather information live from field based operatives across a wide range of industries via mobile phones and smart phones, desktop applications and laptops – in short Captua applications can be utilised in a multitude of ways and have been carefully built to “future proof” our business so we can develop as technology progresses.
Captua has undergone extensive trialing including a 6 month test with Heineken UK and 12 months intensive testing with Matador Intelligence which have allowed Captua to road-test and debug ready for market launch. Captuaâ„¢ underwent a major rebranding from October 2008 to April 2009 working with Fennon and Macrae a specialist marketing and branding agency which led to a new look and feel for the product and the website and a clearer sales and marketing strategy. The product has been realigned with the Captua platform forming the core of the product and the different applications cleverly stripped out so they can be sold individually or as a bundle and snapped in as per the requirements of individual companies. Our clear objective is to make the Captua experience as easy and painless for the end user as possible. A major development on the website is the introduction of e-commerce and the ability for customers to sign up online. The development of the product portfolio, now initially split into 4 applications will allow the company to appeal to multiple customer needs.
Captuaâ„¢ is a platform allowing the return data to be as complex (Captuaâ„¢ Mobile) or as simple (Captuaâ„¢ Vote) as required.

Captuaâ„¢ creates an enhanced and rapid return on investment to its customers on field based tasks. The customer does not have to invest in expensive servers or any other backend hardware meaning Captuaâ„¢ is perfectly positioned to appeal to small and medium sized businesses as well as larger enterprises. The product is delivered as four modules currently, each requiring a Captuaâ„¢ CRM account to operate and control, they are Captua Mobile, Captua Survey, Captua Lynk and Captua Vote. The uses for the Captuaâ„¢ software are wide and varied.

Captua is hosted at a Tier 1 Datacentre.
