Venture Capital CFOs First to Benefit From Windows Server 2008 Certified Software
Liquid Scenarios Server® 2008 ES First Financial Software Worldwide to Achieve Certification for Windows Server 2008
BOULDER, Colorado, DEC. 5 -- bpCentral today announced that its Liquid Scenarios Server 2008 is the first financial industry solution to earn Windows Server 2008 software certification, giving venture capitalists even greater power, security and efficiencies that translate into better portfolio management with lower overhead.
bpCentral's Liquid Scenarios software helps venture capital firms improve accuracy, increase productivity and create competitive advantages by automating complex financial analysis of various investment scenarios. By complying with best practices for computing on Windows Server 2008, the solution allows a firm's often disparate and remote stakeholders to perform financial analysis rapidly and even more securely.
“We are excited to see bpCentral's confidence in the benefits Windows Server 2008 brings to the financial industry,” said Tony de Freitas, director of Windows Server marketing division at Microsoft. “Liquid Scenarios is exactly the kind of innovative solution we like to see from partners who are committed to helping our mutual customers succeed.”
”Windows Server 2008 delivers a number of advancements that benefit Liquid Scenarios, including Active Directory and IIS, that make our solution even easier for CFOs and knowledge workers to administer and manage,” said Lorenzo Carver, chief knowledge architect for bpCentral. “After more than six months of extensive testing on pre-release versions of the new platform, we're impressed with the stability, security, and power of Windows Server 2008. We strongly believe the financial industry will soon reach the same conclusions, and we're proud to deliver the industry's first application certified to be technically superior for the platform.”
Windows Server 2008 software certification comprises approximately 100 test cases that independently confirm an application's compliance with best practices for compatibility, security, reliability, and availability on the new platform, while ensuring the software performs in a 64-bit environment. The certification identifies top-performing technologies that are ready to deploy in mission-critical environments. As a participant in the Microsoft Early Access Program (EAP) for Windows Server 2008 Software Certification, bpCentral's Liquid Scenarios Server 2008 is one of more than 300 applications that are eligible for certification on a pre-release version of the new platform.
The only financial analysis solution to operate seamlessly across desktops, servers, handheld devices and Smartphones, Liquid Scenarios Server 2008 is available immediately in two editions, a Standard 20 license package for firms with more than $500MM under management and a special five package Early Stage (ES), version for firms focused on seed and early stage deals.
