Epicor Software Corporation (NASDAQ: EPIC), a leading provider of
enterprise business software solutions for the midmarket and
divisions of Global 1000 companies, today announced that Epicor
Chairman, President and CEO George Klaus has been named a 2010
Channel Chief by the Everything Channel's CRN magazine. Channel
Chiefs are leaders in creating effective channel programs for
solution providers as they consistently defend, promote and execute
effective channel partner programs and strategies.
"I am honored to be named a 2010 Channel Chief," said Klaus.
"Epicor is proud to work closely with our global channel partners
to deliver unmatched value to our customers worldwide. With the
extension of our three-tiered channel partner incentive program and
the exceptional momentum our next-generation solution Epicor 9 is
achieving in the market place, Epicor continues to deliver
significant opportunities for our channel partners to grow their
businesses in today's highly competitive, dynamic marketplace."
Epicor channel partners have increased revenue contributions by
more than 80% over the past 4 years; through an industry-specific
approach in 2010, Epicor will continue to work on expanding the
channel footprint and revenue contribution.
Building on the success of Epicor's three-tiered channel partner
incentive program launched in the Americas in 2008, Epicor has
extended its incentive program to Professional Services. Epicor's
Professional Services Incentive Program rewards its partners
focused on implementing new business solutions, and supporting and
servicing their Epicor customer base. Furthermore, customer
adoption of Epicor 9 continues to be a huge success for the
company, with shipments to more than 1,000 customers and partners
worldwide, approximately 120 customers running their businesses on
Epicor's latest enterprise resource planning (ERP) solution and
over 34,000 user seats shipped worldwide. Manufacturers,
distributors, financial institutions, service firms and retailers
worldwide have selected Epicor 9 for its ease of use, ability to
adapt to business and industry-specific requirements, and
ultimately for the fact it can easily scale as an organization
expands or changes. With the right solutions, advanced technology,
a clear market strategy and a global footprint, Epicor is well
positioned for continued growth.
"Being named a Channel Chief is one of the most prestigious
honors in the IT industry. This year's Channel Chiefs offers
tremendous insight into the who's who of the Channel," said Kelley
Damore, vice president, editorial director for Everything Channel.
"Top channel executives consistently ensure that the Channel's
voice is heard when strategic decisions are being made and
continually nurture mutually profitable relationships. We applaud
the 2010 Channel Chiefs for their successful partner programs and
strategies."
For the eighth consecutive year, the Channel Chiefs were chosen
based by Everything Channel editorial on criteria including policy
and program innovations made during the past year, the amount of
revenue their company generates through partners, their willingness
to speak out publicly on behalf of the channel, and the number of
years they have dedicated to channel activities. For additional
