Cardiff Revamps Its OneSource Channel Partner Program with

New Document Capture Product and Increased Reseller and

System Integrator Support

Cardiff Software Inc., a leading global provider of business process-automation solutions, today announced its updated OneSource Channel Partner Program, featuring improved reseller support and the addition of its forthcoming Web-based document capture and workflow solution, LiquidCapture(TM) 2003.

Effective July 1, 2003, Cardiff's updated channel partner program will provide resellers and system integrators with advanced technical and sales training along with enhanced sales solutions, tools and support.

Cardiff's enhanced worldwide partner program is designed to support Authorized Partners and Certified Partners for the U.S. market in addition to Value Added Distributors for select international markets. By offering these levels of accreditation, Cardiff will be able to align with a wide variety of exceptional partners throughout the industry to ensure that Cardiff customers receive great value for their solutions. Cardiff's OneSource partners will receive an unprecedented level of benefits in terms of sales support, product training and certification, marketing and communications, technical support, and application development consulting.

"5280 Solutions' partnership with Cardiff has been very rewarding, as we have been extremely successful leveraging the incredible support, tools and services offered through the OneSource program," said Mike Randash, vice president of business development at 5280 Solutions. "Cardiff's integrated suite of business process automation products, along with the enhanced resources, online training and accreditation, will further establish the OneSource program as one of the industry's premier channel programs."

In addition to the enhanced sales support, tools, incentives and training, a core element of the new program is training and certification on LiquidCapture 2003, which is scheduled for a June 2003 release date. Cardiff's introduction of LiquidCapture will enable large organizations with distributed business environments to gather, assemble and index critical business documents over the Web.

The release of LiquidCapture represents a significant extension of Cardiff's established suite of BPA solutions. LiquidCapture is a complete paper and electronic capture solution that reduces operating costs and saves time by eliminating the need to mail or ship documents between sites, which eliminates delays, long transaction cycles and lost documents. Distributed Web-based document capture streamlines business operations to improve productivity and reduce costs.

"Cardiff's commitment to resellers and system integrators remains at the heart of its successful sales model," said Emmanuel de Boucaud, Cardiff's vice president of worldwide channels. "By adding LiquidCapture to the OneSource program, Cardiff will provide channel partners with the most comprehensive integrated business process automation product suite available."

The OneSource program capitalizes on Cardiff's integrated suite of business process automation solutions, which includes TELEform(R), LiquidCapture and LiquidOffice(TM), providing excellent opportunities for service revenue and software margins for resellers and integrators. Cardiff's powerful, standards-compliant suite of products enables organizations to realize a rapid return on investment through improved operational efficiencies, reduced manual data entry costs, improved information accuracy, automated routing procedures, and immediate, personalized communications to customers, partners and employees.
