ADERANT Partners with MDY; Introduces Integrated, Enterprise-Wide Records Management Solution.

ATLANTA -- ADERANT, a global provider of business and financial management software for professional services organizations, today announced that the company has formed a strategic relationship with MDY, the leading provider of records management software and services. Under the terms of the agreement, ADERANT will resell MDY's powerful MDY FileSurf(R) records management solution to legal, accounting, consulting, and other professional services firms as part of the company's integrated practice management suite, ADERANT Expert.

ADERANT will market MDY FileSurf as Expert Records Manager, Powered by MDY. The solution integrates all physical, electronic, and email files regardless of media type, source of origin, or storage location into a single, scalable, and extensible enterprise-wide solution. It ensures that all content is managed according to organizational policies by providing tight integration with various content repositories, including email and document management systems, and provides a server-based rules engine, flexible schedule creation tools, and powerful discovery and disposition hold capabilities.

An integration between MDY's records management solution and ADERANT's practice management system has already been completed and is being used by several prominent professional services organizations.

"MDY has a strong commitment to the legal and professional services markets. By partnering with ADERANT, we strengthen our ability to bring added value to our clients," said Galina Datskovsky, Ph.D., CRM, and Chief Executive Officer of MDY. "This combined solution solves a growing need to improve how information is managed and accessed, whether it is a physical record, email, electronic document, inquiry, or report."

"The explosive growth of electronic information, communications, and documents has required professional services organizations -- especially law firms -- to re-think how they manage content," said Geoffrey Joynt, Interim Chief Executive Officer of ADERANT. "Partnering with an acknowledged market leader such as MDY will allow us to provide our clients with a more comprehensive solution offering that meets their pressing records management needs."

A Clear Path to the Future

Expert Records Manager, Powered by MDY will be made available as an upgrade to ADERANT clients who have already purchased the company's existing solution for managing physical records.

Continued Joynt, "Our overriding strategy is simple: to provide our clients with the most capable solutions that address their business needs while protecting their investments. We now have a new enterprise-wide application that addresses firms' physical, electronic, and email records management business requirements. As such, we will work closely with our existing records management clients to ensure they can quickly benefit from our new offering."
