CIMCON Software Ranked # 1 for Spreadsheet Compliance Products in Operational Risk & Regulation Magazine’s Annual Compliance Software Survey

June 24, 2010, Boston and London. CIMCON Software, the Pioneering Market Leader in Spreadsheet Governance, Risk and Compliance (GRC) today announced that it has been rated as the top vendor for ‘Spreadsheet Compliance Products’ by the readers of Operational Risk & Regulation magazine, a leading publication dedicated to helping risk and compliance professionals think strategically about the key risk and regulatory compliance issues that their organisations face, and helping them implement cutting-edge solutions that focus on best practices.

Operational Risk & Regulations global readership, which includes Chief Risk Officers, Chief Compliance Officers, executives and managers of Operational Risk, Audit and / or Compliance, places CIMCON Software at Number One in the category of ‘Spreadsheet Compliance Products’ in the magazine’s recently completed 4th Annual Compliance Software Products Survey. Readers were specifically asked to rank their top 5 companies for eight survey categories in the areas of Functionality, Usability, Performance, Return on Investment, and Reliability in the April 2010 survey.

“We are honored to receive this recognition from the readers of Operational Risk & Regulations especially since it has been received directly from those responsible for protecting their organizations from risk and non-compliance”, said Anil Agrawal, Director. “The top ranking is a testimonial to our product functionality, usability, performance, return on investment, and reliability, all factors used in this survey, and reaffirms CIMCON’s Market Leadership in End User Computing by all stakeholders in the risk chain including end-users, risk and compliance managers, analysts, auditors and consultants. It is also another indicator of the significant growth that we are currently experiencing as we continue to add some of the world’s largest companies in financial services and other industries to our client portfolio.”

CIMCON Software ranked third in the ‘Sarbanes-Oxley Products’ category behind IBM and Oracle, and 7th overall in the Top 20 Compliance Software vendors, well ahead of the other two spreadsheet vendors that made the list.

CIMCON’s SOX-XL suite of products provide the industry’s most comprehensive spreadsheet lifecycle solutions from discovery, risk assessment, analysis, and controls to archiving and record retention.
