Walled Lake, Michigan, March 31, 2010 ― Paramount Technologies, the leading global developer of web-based procurement, project, time and expense solutions for midmarket organizations, announced today that its WorkPlace solution suite is now Certified for Microsoft Dynamics.  WorkPlace was tested with Microsoft Dynamics GP 2010 which is scheduled for general availability in May 2010.  WorkPlace is the only procurement, project, time and expense solution Certified for Microsoft Dynamics GP and the first solution to be Certified for Microsoft Dynamics GP 2010.

Certified for Microsoft Dynamics signifies that WorkPlace has met Microsoft Corporation’s highest standard for partner-developed software.  Solutions that are Certified for Microsoft Dynamics have demonstrated development quality and compatibility with the Microsoft Dynamics product on which it runs by passing rigorous VeriTest software solution testing for Microsoft Dynamics.  In addition, the Microsoft Dynamics partner must have customers who are successfully using the certified solution and are willing to recommend it, and be a Gold Certified Partner in the Microsoft Partner Program.

For customers, Certified for Microsoft Dynamics helps identify Microsoft Dynamics solutions that have been tested for compatibility, meet high quality standards, and are successfully used by existing customers.  This certification represents a significant step in elevating the standard for partner-developed software solutions for industry-specific business applications.  By highlighting these solutions, Microsoft also creates new opportunities for partners to expand their reseller channel and to better promote their packaged Microsoft Dynamics solution for customers.

“By requiring both the software solution and the partner to meet our highest standards, Microsoft is assuring customers that these certified solutions work with their investments in Microsoft Dynamics,” said Doug Kennedy, vice president, Microsoft Dynamics Partners.  “Microsoft congratulates Paramount Technologies on achieving the Certified for Microsoft Dynamics status for WorkPlace by demonstrating its success and commitment in delivering a leading Microsoft Dynamics solution.”

“Paramount Technologies has always been committed to software and service excellence; achieving the Certified for Microsoft Dynamics designation for WorkPlace is a reflection of that commitment,” said Salim Khalife, President and CEO, Paramount Technologies.  “This accreditation showcases our dedication and adherence to meet the highest quality standard set by Microsoft as well as successful deployment and usage of WorkPlace by our customers.”
