Transpara And CIMSoft Corporation Sign Reseller Agreement To Expand Visual KPI to Canadian Market

Online, June 20, 2010 (Newswire.com) - (Pleasanton, Calif) -- Transpara Corporation, a leading provider of mobile business intelligence (BI) software, today announced that it has signed a reseller agreement with CIMSoft to deliver Visual KPI to the Canadian market. Visual KPI is the only solution purpose-built for delivering data to users on any mobile device or PC without any additional programming or changes to existing security requirements. Visual KPI offers CIMSoft customers a near real-time corporate data experience regardless of employees' location or device.

"Over the many years we have been involved in helping our customers capture and expose data to their organization, we have never had such a secure, universal delivery mechanism available as we do with Visual KPI," said Robert Carney, President of CIMSoft. "Whether we are helping customers to deliver industrial process data or corporate financial data, Visual KPI delivers a sophistication and ease of use that has not been available previously. When compared against competitive offerings, it's almost irresistible."

With Visual KPI, employees can access key business indicators, regardless of location, to determine how well their business is performing, and what actions they need to take to improve it. Through this partnership, Visual KPI will help CIMSoft customers better respond to their ever-changing business environments, delivering competitive advantage with:
- Ease of use - Visual KPI uses a Microsoft Excel-based tool for configuration and set-up, delivering a solution that does not require programming or significant training.
- Data consistency - Whether corporate data and history is stored in regular or streaming databases, data historians, web services or external sources, it is easily captured and presented consistently on more than 400 smart phones or browsers.
- Cost-effectiveness - Since Visual KPI is installed on an existing server or virtual machine and requires only simple configuration to access existing data sources and devices, the IT department does not have to make any changes to their security model or maintain multiple versions for each of their devices (Blackberry, iPhone, iPad, Windows Phone, Android, etc.).
- Speed of Implementation - Visual KPI can be deployed within one to two days - and often, only hours - eliminating both the time and expense of traditional data or business intelligence projects.

"With the addition of CIMSoft to our reseller partner program, we continue to rapidly grow our channel with new geographies," said Michael Saucier, founder and CEO, Transpara. "CIMSoft's experience with customers across an array of industries, from commercial and industrial, to financial, medical and service- based, make them an ideal partner to bring Transpara's mobile BI offering to a broader set of automation companies in Canada."

Visual KPI aggregates operations, financial and infrastructure information from multiple, existing data sources and delivers actionable key performance indicators (KPIs) and alerts to users via the desktop, laptop, and virtually all smart phones and PDAs, including: Blackberry, iPhone/iPad, Windows Mobile, Android and others. The web-based software enables users to easily create and customize KPIs, scorecards and trends for an instant snapshot of role-based operations data.
