Driver Awards 2024

Congrats to this year's winners!

2024 Driver awards

The Driver Awards celebrate the amazing achievements of RevOps teams, and showcase the innovation and accomplishments of these people and companies taking a data-driven approach to RevOps using Openprise.

The categories

The driver awards are comprised of seven categories:

Driving Evolution

New for Open24, this category recognizes teams that have pivoted based on changing business needs or environments. While initial implementations of Openprise may solve specific data challenges, this award looks at companies that have realized gains from utilizing Openprise, then quickly evolved to address additional processes or make improvements to existing processes. The winner must be using Openprise to not only solve data and process challenges, but also make adjustments as needed to quickly adapt to new circumstances.

Driving Business Impact

This category recognizes RevOps teams that use Openprise to dramatically improve business processes, resulting in a direct impact on business performance. The winner must demonstrate a significant impact on business outcomes in any or all of these areas: increased revenue, improved operational efficiency, or reduced costs.

Driving Data and Funnel Visibility

This category recognizes RevOps teams that excelled at integrating data from multiple sources into a solid foundation using Openprise. The winner must have created order from chaos by combining data sets to enable multiple teams to have a shared vision of their data and funnel.

Driving Efficiency

This category recognizes RevOps teams that transformed the Ops function from a helpdesk to a strategic team with a critical impact on the business’s top line. The winner must demonstrate the ability to crank up the RevOps engine for maximum output and achieve more with fewer resources.

Driving Stack Optimization

This category recognizes RevOps teams that have a holistic vision in creating the most efficient RevOps tech stack. The winner must demonstrate the ability to anticipate future RevOps use cases and think strategically when planning and building the most optimal process and technology stack.

Driving Creativity

This category recognizes RevOps teams that use Openprise in an unconventional way. The winner must demonstrate a unique business need that required creating entirely new business cases that bring data together and use it to drive business and deliver information to teams in a novel way.

Rookie of the Year

This category recognizes RevOps teams that have started using Openprise in the last year, and are doing amazing, fun RevOps projects using the platform. A winner will be selected from qualified companies that submit for other categories.

Teledyne LeCroy, a leading manufacturer of advanced oscilloscopes, protocol analyzers, and other test instruments, quickly validates performance and debugs complex electronic systems. Their RevOps team previously relied on a fragile point solution to sync contract data—sell dates, warranties, and serial numbers—from its ERP to the CRM, taking three to four days. Now, with automation, this process takes 45 minutes. In just one year, Teledyne LeCroy scaled its operations for creating new records in Salesforce, delivering a 567% increase in efficiency.

What once required extensive effort can now be completed in an average of just five minutes per list, regardless of the number of records.

Additionally, Rimini Street’s marketing teams can now load attendee lists directly from the event floor.

Society of Petroleum Engineers (SPE) is the largest individual-member organization serving engineers, scientists, managers, and other professionals in the upstream segment of the oil and gas industry. SPE successfully transitioned its persona management from Marketo to Openprise, streamlining operations and alleviating the need for troubleshooting. This shift empowered SPE staff to concentrate on utilizing these personas more effectively, enhancing their strategies in key areas such as acquisition, engagement, and conversions. The team has streamlined their operations to just a few minor checks, making the process nearly maintenance-free and freeing them from the time-consuming task of resolving campaign issues. As a result, SPE achieved a significant increase in open rates for their Distinguished Lecturer campaign by focusing on a specific persona rather than a broader audience, allowing the campaign to be more tailored and personalized.
