Announcing new software and solution range to be available through local partner, Computrade Technology International (CTI), in Indonesia

Four Seasons Hotel Jakarta, INDONESIA, Jakarta, 26 Mei 2009 - Micro Focus® (Micro Focus; LSE: MCRO.L), the leading enterprise management and modernization application solution developer in the world, today announces the launch of its newest line of products to enable companies to increase their enterprise applications significantly in the continuous growing corporate market in Indonesia. Further, Software Dynamic Sdn Bhd representing Micro Focus in Malaysia, Indonesia, Singapore, Thailand, and Philippines, continue to extend partnership with Computrade Technology International (CTI), one of the largest information technology distributors in Indonesia.

For the first time in Indonesia, Micro Focus offers Micro Focus Enterprise Application Modernization and Management software solutions enabling companies to response rapidly towards the change of market and to cut costs and risks through network development and partnership with CTI in several large cities, such as: Jakarta, Surabaya, Medan, and Kalimantan

Micro Focus will start to offer Application Modernization, a solution that enables customers to reduce annual operating cost by more than 50%, increase productivity and bring greater agility to your business systems by reducing customers' time to market. This solutions are meant to extend and modernize customers' application running on IBM z/OS, COBOL-based applications running on Linux, UNIX or Windows, migrate and consolidate applications from Mainframe and mid-range environments to run on Linux, UNIX, z/OS or Windows, or migrate from proprietary languages or databases to rationalize customers' software stack on an existing platform.

The other solution that Micro Focus provides, include Modernization Workbench, to deliver business intelligence on the applications that guides management decisions, deliver deep technical insights about the applications' architecture and behavior to improve quality and time to market.

Last but not least, Micro Focus delivers solution to mask production data from across the enterprise for testing and development process. The resulting data is both compliant with privacy requirements and optimized in size with typical reductions of 95% from production data. Imagine if customers' development team (could be internal or external/outsourced team) have access to confidential data such as credit card's holder personal information.

"This is one of the important initiatives for Micro Focus and it is a milestone for us to serve our corporate clients in Indonesia that may have not been exposed to alternative solutions to Mainframes," said Ling KK, Executive Director of Software Dynamics. "Just like other companies oversee, Indonesian companies also need a guarantee that their IT systems can function in a maximum capacity to increase organization's productivity and at the same time reducing costs, especially in an uncertain economic condition today. We will use more than 30 years experience to further support our efforts in Indonesia."

"Computrade Technology International (CTI) has a long experience in marketing several information technology products and solutions from global IT players, such as: IBM, Oracle, Red Hat, Fortinet, Double-Take, Riverbed, KBOX, and today we will expand our IT solution offerings from Micro Focus," said Harry Surjanto, President Director of CTI. "We are proud to be the a chosen partner for Micro Focus to introduce its products in Indonesia. We are certain that Micro Focus' newest products will be the choice of Indonesian companies that desire management applications to increase the value of applications used as well as minimizing the risks and become more efficient."

"This strategic partnership between Software Dynamics and Micro Focus which started in 2003 will strengthen and increase our service qualities to our customer channels," added Harry Surjanto.
