SmartSimple and Parallelspace Partner for Worldwide Launch of SmartSimple Dynamic Business Solutions

SmartSimple Software Inc. and Parallelspace Corporation announce partnership to provide worldwide marketing, sales and customer support for SmartSimple™ dynamic business solutions™.

TORONTO, CANADA – March 24, 2003 – SmartSimple Software Inc. and Parallelspace Corporation, leading worldwide providers of collaborative business solutions and services, today announce their partnership to provide marketing, sales and customer support for SmartSimple dynamic business solutions.

“SmartSimple is a powerful set of shared business applications that are needed every day to run a business” said Mike Reid, CEO of SmartSimple Software Inc. “A customer only needs a browser and an Internet connection to use SmartSimple's dynamic business solutions.”

SmartSimple is family of Internet-based dynamic business solutions that are built around a common, user extensible database; securely accessed through a browser.  SmartSimple is organized around 3 key themes: people, activities and measurements.

Full and part-time employees, contract help, consultants, professionals, customers and partners are each identified by their email address and represented in a common organization chart as if everyone belonged to the same organization.  Secure access to shared business applications is enabled by email address and password and the roles assigned to each user.  SmartSimple is ideal for companies, partnerships, associations, or virtual organizations.

SmartSimple shared business applications are dynamic because new fields can be added anywhere they are needed and at any time.  New fields automatically appear in all of the appropriate forms and in the common, extensible database.  In addition, a group of fields can have a workflow process assigned to it to automate the building and running of powerful business applications.

SmartSimple includes 15 shared business applications including Sales Force Automation, Email Broadcast, Expenses Approval, Time and Attendance Tracking, Vacation Approval, Employee Suggestion Program, Training Requests, Business Card Request, Requests for Credit Approval, Check Requisition, Smart Folders, Office Supplies Requisition, Literature Request, Request for Issuance of Return Goods Authorization and Procedure Amendment plus an unlimited number of workflow-enabled custom applications.

 "SmartSimple makes it a lot easier to keep all our teams on the same page.  We use it globally to support both development and sales teams, and have saved a lot of time by having everyone access the same information instantly" said Rob Moffat, President of Wallace Wireless Inc.

As a hosted solution, SmartSimple can eliminate the need for server hardware and software while supporting the highest levels reliability, manageability and secure access.  Customers also have the option of purchasing pre-configured SmartSimple Servers that are ready-to-run in their organizations.

“At Parallelspace, we've learned that our customers' solution needs are truly diverse - both in terms of the variety of applications they need and use and the types of secure shared access they require but also, the efficiencies and cost effectiveness needed in the total solution” said Michael Herman, Founder and CEO of Parallelspace Corporation. “SmartSimple is unique in its approach to building shared business applications and providing high-value, dynamic business solutions for companies, partnerships and associations.”
