FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

REPRISE SOFTWARE, INC. LICENSES THE REPRISE LICENSE MANAGER TO STREAMSIM
 

San Jose, CA – Dec 28, 2006 – Reprise Software Inc. is pleased to announce that a leading software company in the streamline-based flow simulation industry, Streamsim, has adopted Reprise Software’s Reprise License Manager (RLM). Streamsim will rely on RLM to enforce its software licensing policies so that it can package and price its software in ways that its customers prefer.

Available since May, 2006, the Reprise License Manager ^TM (RLM) offers innovative licensing technology to the ISV community while better addressing the needs of end-users. Although RLM resembles popular licensing systems in architecture and administration, its advantages are apparent in its simplicity, transparency and value; three under-served areas in the marketplace today.

Streamsim founder Marco Thiele said, “For Streamsim, Reprise had the right product at the right time - at the right price. We examined other licensing products, but the value of RLM was at a level that others could not match. RLM has what we need today, and we are confident that based on Reprise Software’s pedigree, they will continue to innovate to address areas that are important to us as we grow.”

“We are pleased to welcome Streamsim as a valued new RLM customer,” said Matt Christiano, Reprise Software’s founder and president. “We are particularly sensitive to the software licensing requirements of small, growing companies in terms of product functionality as well as pricing. Streamsim is exactly the kind of company that can benefit from RLM now while relying on RLM’s scalability to address their needs as they grow.”

RLM supports a core set of license types with license policy removed from the software and placed into the license key - in order to make integration and support easier for Independent Software Vendors, and to make the meaning of the license more transparent to the end-user community. Perhaps most important to end users, Reprise Software is committed to fully documenting the usage data format and partnering with third party report writer vendors to support it in order to expand the available sources of end user reporting tools.
