CDC Software Announces Expansion of c360 Product Line

CDC Software, a wholly owned subsidiary of CDC Corporation and a global provider of industry-specific enterprise software applications and consulting services, today announced that it has expanded its c360 product line of add-on applications for Microsoft Dynamics CRM with the addition of four new products.

These new products expand the c360 product line to enhance its position as the premiere set of add-on resource tools for Microsoft Dynamics CRM. The new products include:

- Import Manager, a CRM specific tool to import data from multiple data sources

- Report Authoring, a CRM end-user report design tool

- Email Marketing to allow preparation, execution, tracking and analysis of HTML email marketing campaigns

- Mobile CRM, a mobile CRM application for field sales and services people to access CRM via wireless handheld devices on the Windows Mobile platform; and

- Computer Telephony Integration which enables integration between telephone systems and Microsoft CRM and detects incoming phone calls, automatically produces activities for incoming and outgoing calls and displays customized call information.

Since CDC Software's acquisition of c360 in April, 2006, the number of customers using the products has increased more than 45 percent. This rapidly accelerating market growth and the addition of key new products, during the first year as part of CDC Software, further illustrates the company's commitment to the sustained growth of its acquisitions. This is in stark contrast to typical consolidators that take the slash-and-burn approach by cutting operating costs and product investments to maximize short-term profits on maintenance revenue.

"c360 is a strong business partner that continues to leverage the Microsoft Dynamics CRM platform to provide high value solutions to our customers and partners," said Brad Wilson, general manager for Microsoft Dynamics CRM. "Microsoft Dynamics CRM is committed to enabling our Independent Software Vendors to develop innovative new products and vertical solutions for our platform."

"Since the acquisition by CDC Software last April, we have continued to build and enhance our products and we've augmented our business model so that we are now the one-stop-shop for all things Microsoft CRM," said John Gravely general manager for the c360 product line. "The addition of these new products highlights the strength of our partnership with Microsoft as we grow our base of channel partners and sales both domestically and internationally and penetrate new markets together" - CDC.
