Surado Expands Partnership with Microsoft
Partnership enables Surado to offer greater back-office integration to Microsoft Great Plains

Riverside, CA, September 5, 2003 - In keeping with its commitment to providing powerful, versatile and sensible solutions that help companies know their customers and keep them for life, Surado Solutions, the emerging innovator in Customer Relationship Management (CRM) software, today announced that it has been named a Microsoft® Business Solutions Gold Certified ISV partner. Surado, a Microsoft Certified Partner since 1999, will provide solutions that integrate with Microsoft Great Plains developed by Microsoft Business Solutions, a leading provider of business applications designed to help small and mid-market businesses become more connected to customers, employees, partners and suppliers.

"Surado's decision to more tightly integrate with Microsoft Business Solutions is consistent with our strategic integration goals of providing more seamless connectivity to back-office ERP, SCM, manufacturing, financial and other corporate applications for a true 360 degree view," said Sundip R. Doshi, CEO of Surado. "Our partnership with Microsoft Business Solutions will enable Surado to further enhance the Surado Integration Module by providing an 'Adapter' to Microsoft Great Plains. This will benefit our existing client base as well as Microsoft Great Plains clients looking for an Integrated CRM Solution."

One of Surado's first clients to benefit from this partnership is Inland Empire Components, a leading worldwide independent stocking distributor of electronic components. "With complex business requirements and aggressive growth plans, we wanted a proven solution that integrated tightly with our Great Plains financial system,” said Dana Jiron, COO of Inland Empire Components, “Surado quickly earned our confidence through their professional demonstrations, responsive and personalized service and excellent references from satisfied customers.

"We are pleased to have Surado join the ranks of Microsoft Business Solutions ISV partners," said Don Nelson, general manager of channel development for Microsoft Business Solutions. Surado's extensive experience in CRM Solutions and Services will provide our joint customers with increased functionality and will maximize the return on their investment."
