Bothell, WA — May 1, 2008 — Winshuttle Inc., the leading provider of user-empowered data shuttling software for use with SAP® Business Suite applications, today announced its SHUTTLEpro Partner Program. The program enables selected partners to deliver Winshuttle's industry-leading solutions to their customers worldwide. Companies that have already joined the Winshuttle SHUTTLEpro Partner Program include Aquire, Capgemini, Configurable Management and Utopia. Winshuttle will be demonstrating its software at SAPPHIRE in Orlando, May 4-7, at booth # 264.

By participating in the SHUTTLEpro Partner Program, companies can also grow their businesses by developing Winshuttle–based practices including implementation, data migration and data management services. Over 350 Global 2000 companies are already using Winshuttle solutions including Canada Post, Apotek Inc., Medtronic, Hubbell Inc., Warner Bros., Cutter & Buck Inc. and Coca Cola Bottling Company Consolidated.

"We are deeply committed to improving data management processes for our enterprise customers worldwide and recognize that working with the right partners is a critical step in helping our customers excel," said Lewis Carpenter, president of Winshuttle. "To ensure our partners' success in delivering Winshuttle solutions, we have developed a comprehensive program that enables them to grow their own revenue while providing significant value to our mutual clients."

"Our customers have shown a strong positive response to Winshuttle technology," said Steven Branch, president of Configurable Management. "Winshuttle has been a great partner in that they provide our organization with all the necessary tools and support to enable us to strengthen and grow with their solutions, ultimately making it possible for us to help our customers optimize their businesses."

Inaccurate or incomplete data entry can create significant problems for companies running today's business software applications. Winshuttle products make accurate data entry safe, easy and fast. Companies that use SAP software to run their business can use Winshuttle products to empower business users – not just IT or programmers – to enter data quickly and accurately using Excel or Access as a front-end data entry tool. This streamlines data entry tasks for everyone involved and frees up users to focus on more productive activities.
