SYSPRO Named “Software Company of the Year”
COSTA MESA, Calif. – February 9, 2004 -- SYSPRO, a leading producer of enterprise software, has announced the company’s selection as “Software Company of the Year” by the Software Council of Southern California (SCSC). SYSPRO was one of three finalists chosen from several hundred nominations for the award, one of the most prestigious awards in the industry. This top recognition was given to SYSPRO based on the company’s attainment of the highest aggregate ratings in numerous categories, including: Product innovation: Sales/revenue growth; Team building; Positive effect on the technology industry within the region; and Legislative activities pertinent to the Software Industry.
Rick Sharga, CEO of CJ Patrick Company, presented the honor to SYSPRO USA officers, President Brian Stein and Vice President Joey Benadretti, at a formal awards banquet, “A Night of Shining Stars,” on February 5, 2004, at the historic Millennium Biltmore Hotel in Los Angeles. SCSC President Hoshi Printer presided over the ceremony, which was attended by more than 350 key industry people.
In the acceptance speeches, Stein acknowledged that SYSPRO had emerged from the recessionary economy of 2003 as a stronger, more focused company. “We kept the SYSPRO team intact with not one layoff,” he said. “We listened to the marketplace and developed and introduced new software solutions that enable the small to medium-size manufacturer and distributor to successfully compete with companies of all sizes.”
Benadretti said of the honor, “It doesn’t get any better than this. This acknowledgement from our peers reflects the stature and respect that SYSPRO has gained over the years. The award confirms SYSPRO’s place at the top of the list of great software companies.” He also acknowledged the hard work of every SYSPRO employee and indicated the award was not being accepted for what SYSPRO had accomplished, but to be held as a standard against which the company would measure future efforts.
This is the second time in the past three years that the Software Council has honored SYSPRO. In 2002, SYSPRO was runner-up for Software Developer of the Year.
The Software Council of Southern California is a non-profit group. The association annually recognizes outstanding contributions in five categories: Software Company of the Year; Software Developer of the Year; Software Services Company of the Year; Software CEO of the Year; and Software Entrepreneur of the Year.
