SofterWare Celebrates 25 Years
|
|
| Vice President Jon Biedermann provides an entertaining review of SofterWare’s first 25 years. |
CEO Doug Schoenberg and President Nathan Relles enjoy the festivities along with staff and guests. |
In March of 2006, SofterWare gathered to celebrate 25 years of providing software and support to the nonprofit, childcare, camp and education markets. As we reminisced, we also looked forward to a bright future based on long-lasting client relationships, technological advancements and product innovations. We feel strongly that our success is due to continually striving towards exceptional quality, anticipating and listening to client needs, and satisfying our customers through products and services that provide proven value. |
Doug Schoenberg, CEO of SofterWare, congratulated everyone for their contributions, saying, “As we begin our next quarter century, I’m truly excited by the upcoming enhancements in our products and services. We’ve never been, and never will be, content to simply rest on our laurels. Though we can be proud of our achievements, we must also recognize that our continued success relies on the success of our clients.” |
Dr. Relles added, “Part of the reason clients enjoy success with our software – besides the fact that these are excellent products – is that our staff truly enjoys the work we do. We have many employees who’ve been with us well over a decade, which makes us well-tuned to the needs of our clients. Client satisfaction with our services and support staff have had a direct relational impact on the long-lasting, stable relationships we’ve enjoyed with our clients.”

SofterWare Inc. Acquires Computer Resources Inc.
| SofterWare
Inc. and Computer Resources Inc. have signed
an agreement to combine their businesses.
SofterWare is a leading provider of administrative
software for child care centers (EZ-CARE2
and KidsCare), camps (EZ-CAMP2) and non-profit
fundraising management (DonorPerfect), and
Computer Resources is a leading provider
of administrative software for public and
private schools (MMS For Schools).
|
According
to Douglas Schoenberg, CEO of SofterWare, "Computer
Resources is tremendously compatible with
SofterWare since they share our long-standing
commitment to providing high quality products
and services to the field that they serve."
|
Computer

continue under the leadership of its founders,
Ray Perreault and Steven Blain. They will
remain headquartered at their current location

SofterWare Named as one of Top 100 PC Software Companies
| The most recent issue of industry newsletter, Soft*Letter, includes their annual ranking of the Top 100 PC software companies and SofterWare was ranked as #91. Although our chance of displacing any of the Top Ten (Microsoft, Adobe, Novell, Intuit, Autodesk, Symantec, Network Assoc., Citrix, Macromedia and Great Plains) is
questionable, we are quite proud to be included on this list.
|
The
newsletter notes that to be eligible, a company
must be an independent, U.S. based company
(subsidiaries do not qualify) that generates
at least 50% of its revenues from personal
computer software. Because of the particular
definition of personal computer software,
some fairly large software companies (like
Oracle) are not included.
|
The
ranking is based on fiscal year 2000 revenues
and if our recent merger with Computer Resources
had been completed earlier, our proforma
2000 revenues would have placed us at #86
in the rankings.
|
This
achievement is unquestionably the result
of the hard work and dedication of everyone
on the SofterWare team. We take pride in
having reached this milestone, and the excellence
in products and services that it represents
for our clients.
|
SofterWare recognized
as Corporate Champion in Child Care
| The National
Association of Child Care Professionals announced
that SofterWare has been honored with their Corporate
Champions in Child Care Award. Corporate
Champions in Child Care is given annually
to companies that "recognize the importance
of child care and have implemented national
initiatives that substantially support
directors in the quest of increasing quality
child care." SofterWare was recognized
for our 15 years of service to the industry,
as well as for our annual sponsorship of
the NACCP National Director of the Year
Award. The award was presented at the
