CGI, Intuit and LoanPerformance Recognized for Innovative Use of Integration

AUSTIN, TEXAS – November 14, 2007 – Pervasive Software® Inc. (NASDAQ: PVSW), a global value leader in agile, embeddable data management and integration software, announced the winners of the inaugural InnovatioNEXT Integration Solutions Awards at the company's annual user conference, IntegratioNEXT. After considering more than 100 nominees, a panel of Pervasive executives named CGI Group Inc., Intuit, and LoanPerformance as the three winners.

"Pervasive customers are making remarkable strides in advancing their businesses with innovative integration solutions and pioneering new ways to fully utilize the breadth of capabilities our tools offer," said Pervasive CTO and Integration Products General Manager Mike Hoskins. "We are proud to recognize their achievements through the creation of the InnovatioNEXT awards and give them an opportunity to share those best practices with others facing similar challenges. Pervasive works closely with our customers to find the best solution for their integration challenges and to learn from their experiences. We look forward to another year of seeing our customers and partners apply their creative technical expertise to advance their business initiatives based on Pervasive tools."

CGI Group Inc., one of the largest independent IT services firms in the world, has embedded Pervasive Data Integrator™ in its AMS Advantage® application to extend the value and life of their customers' existing ERP applications. Using scalable, platform-independent integration, the company gives customers data extractions, migrations, integrations and exchange capabilities that are easy to use and provide low TCO. CGI leverages Pervasive's "buy once, use many" offering to rapidly deliver integration for its customers.

Intuit, a leading provider of business and financial management solutions, succeeded in creating "one-click migration" using Pervasive software. The company has built an automated conversion for new QuickBooks customers wanting to migrate data from competitive accounting suites, and in the process has created strategic value including an enhanced customer experience, better ability to attract customers from competitive products, and extension of the existing maps and processes to tackle new competitive migrations. Intuit's customer-focused innovation has resulted in more than 46,000 competitive migrations to date.

LoanPerformance , a leader in residential mortgage data and analytics, is implementing Pervasive Data Integrator along with Pervasive Data Profiler™ to assess, profile, extract, transform and load large data volumes into a back-end SQL Server database, including files of up to 16 million records, while cutting deployment times to a quarter of what they once were. Upfront data profiling helps the team better identify problems or changes in the incoming data before it's processed. If there are issues, LoanPerformance passes the information back to clients so they can fix problems in the source systems producing the data. LoanPerformance made creative use of Pervasive Map Designer to write business rules that validate new data sets against prior data sets across different data periods, even dating back to the origination of a loan, providing a lifetime view of the asset.
