Greater Resources Equal Superior Customer Experiences

Irvine, Calif. - June 19, 2006 - Sage Software announced today the addition of seven new national business partners to the company’s North American National Partner program: Atlantic Software Alliance; Automated Accounting Solutions (K & R Consulting/M&M Sales); BCS-Prosoft; Delphia Consulting; Dynamic Software Solutions; JMT Consulting Group; and NFP Consultants. National Partners offer superior support to small and mid-sized business customers by providing more resources and experience with a wider variety of Sage Software products and services.

“Sage Software is acutely aware that our success ultimately relies on the success of our 2.6 million customers in North America,” said Taylor Macdonald, Sage Software executive vice president of channel and sales operations. “National Partners are strategically important, because they have a greater pool of experts that know how Sage Software can improve productivity for our mutual customers.”

Sage Software National Partners have a minimum of three offices with sales, consulting and support personnel in each location. By having these deep resources, National Partners ensure superior customer experiences, because end users have access to a greater number of software consultants and service professionals with extensive experience across more Sage Software product lines.

The seven new National Partners collectively carry Sage MAS 90; Sage MAS 200; Sage MAS 500; Sage Accpac; Sage BusinessWorks; Sage CRM Saleslogix; Sage Abra; Sage FAS; Sage Timberline and Sage MIP products. The group also has expertise across a diverse spectrum of industries, including extensive experience with Sage Software implementations in distribution; manufacturing; government; construction; and multiple types of non profit and fundraising companies.

“The Sage National Partner program has provided invaluable access to resources that have helped NexTec achieve greater success in our drive to increase our footprint with Sage solutions,” said Eric Frank, president of the Nextec Group, a current Sage National Partner.

Sage Software supports National Partners in serving customers with additional marketing and sales resources, education and training courses on business growth, premium leads and consolidation of tier benefits from multiple product sales. The seven new firms join existing National Partners BDO Seidman LLP; Blytheco; Clifton Gunderson LLP; RSM McGladrey; and The Nextec Group.

“Sage Software’s commitment to our business partner channel is unmatched in the industry and offers business partners of every size, shape and focus the opportunity and tools to grow their businesses,” said Lee Hagen, Sage Software vice president sales, national partners. “The National Partner program is another example of a tailored program designed to assist business partners with specific, national needs.
