“ProductCenter is showing significant strength in the marketplace in fiscal 2015 as a robust, affordable PLM solution,” said Joe Mullaney, SofTech’s CEO. “ProductCenter’s license revenue year-to-date increased approximately 176% as compared to the same period in the prior year and maintenance renewal rates have improved significantly as compared to the last several fiscal years. Consulting revenue has lagged behind due to a delay in several large projects, however, these projects have begun to ramp up in the fourth quarter,” he added.
“The sale of the CADRA product line in 2014 provided the capital and the flexibility for us to make a significant current year investment in the development of a new PLM-based product aimed at the consumer market. The product was created using our employees’ deep PLM expertise and it is currently in beta testing; we expect to be ready for commercial launch this coming summer. We believe this product has the potential to get SofTech on a revenue growth path, an essential element of shareholder value enhancement,” Mullaney concluded.
