Business Wire, Jan 19, 2006

MARKHAM, Ontario -- Cybermation, the largest and fastest growing vendor focused primarily on Enterprise Job Scheduling, today announced the impressive results of their annual customer enthusiasm survey. Up three percent from last year, Cybermation has reported its highest rating yet, with 99 percent for overall customer enthusiasm, proving Cybermation's commitment to customer service and satisfaction is one of the strongest in the industry.

The annual survey was independently-conducted by IDC, the premier global provider of market intelligence, to obtain an objective assessment. The survey questioned Cybermation's customers on areas such as professional services, products, customer support and commitment. The results of the survey enable Cybermation to identify areas of achievement as well as recommendations for improvement.

"Having an outside research firm conduct the survey demonstrates the accuracy and credibility of the survey results," said Richelle Edwards, Site Supervisor, State of Delaware. "Cybermation's proactive effort to find out their own customer satisfaction ratings is what makes them a leading competitor in job scheduling software, and subsequently demonstrates their commitment and value to their customers and business."

Some key highlights of the 2005 survey include:

--86 percent of customers increased ROI on IT systems involvement.

--94 percent of customers would recommend Cybermation.

--The professional services staff achieved an overall rating of 8.39 out of 10 in the areas of professionalism and knowledge.

--Overall satisfaction of customer support was rated at 8.1 out of 10 in the areas of accessibility, timely responsiveness and follow-through on commitments.

--81 percent of customers surveyed rated Cybermation ahead of competitors.

"Cybermation's customers continue to show strong enthusiasm for its products, services and customer support," said Tim Grieser, Program Vice President, IDC Enterprise System Management. "Cybermation is one of the few companies in the IT industry that can claim to have consistent overall satisfaction rankings higher than 80 percent. The strength of these ratings reflects a very healthy relationship between Cybermation and its client user base."

"At Cybermation, we strive to not only offer the best products and services, but also establish and maintain customer support and enthusiasm," said Ray Nissan, CEO of Cybermation. "We are delighted with the overwhelmingly positive response to this survey, and it only motivates us to continue to improve our services and products for our customers. This survey solidifies the fact that Cybermation is dedicated to being a global leader in enterprise job scheduling solutions."
