Epicor Software Corporation (NASDAQ: EPIC), a leading provider of enterprise business software solutions for the midmarket and divisions of Global 1000 companies, today announced that its next-generation enterprise resource planning (ERP) solution Epicor 9 has garnered recent industry award honors in Germany and Poland.

The Center for Enterprise Research (CER) and ERP Management magazine in Germany named Epicor 9 "ERP System of the Year." Award entries were judged by a committee comprised of impartial consultants and representatives from science and the trade press; under the chairmanship of Professor Norbert Gronau, judges chose the winners after a two-stage selection process. Epicor 9 was deemed particularly innovative, as according to Gronau, "of the 27 companies participating in the competition, the judges considered Epicor's solutions to be the most promising in terms of ergonomics, integration capabilities and system architecture."

The Business Forum, sponsored by the Ministry of Regional Development and the FIRE Innovation Center in Poland named Epicor 9 as "Innovation of the Year" for 2009. The goal of the "Innovation of the Year" competition -- a nation-wide program aimed at promoting and encouraging the development of innovative technologies -- is to award projects, solutions, products and technologies that are unique and demonstrate innovation.

"We are truly honored to be recognized by these two prestigious award programs," said George Klaus, chairman, president and CEO for Epicor. "Being named 'Innovation of the Year' and 'ERP System of the Year' is testament to our innovative approach and delivery of a truly collaborative and dynamic enterprise business application experience to our customers."
