SYNERCARD DEBUTS ASURE ID® SOFTWARE IN FRENCH, GERMAN AND SPANISH

New Language Availability Marks Synercard’s Entrance Into European and Latin American Markets  

Paris, France, November 7, 2006 – Synercard, developer of the critically acclaimed Asure ID® suite of photo ID and ID card application control software , today announced multiple language support for the popular product. Showcasing at the Cartes Exhibition in Paris, November 7-10, 2006 at the HID Global booth number 4J056, the software’s new capabilities enable the company to expand the distribution of its products and services into selected parts of Europe and Latin America.

Synercard’s Asure ID software provides the perfect ID card application control solution for organizations that need to collaborate and share data or need their smart photo ID cards to work with other enterprise systems. Building on the phenomenal success of the software’s entrance into the UK this past summer, Synercard now plans to expand the availability of Asure ID into Europe and Latin America.

“Synercard is acknowledged as an industry leader in North America, and is quickly gaining recognition in the UK as well,” said Bruce Bianco, President, Synercard. “In order to properly service the needs of customers in Europe and Latin America, multiple-language capabilities was a must.”

Now all Asure ID software and related marketing materials and manuals will be available in English, French, German and Spanish.

Synercard’s entrance into Europe, specifically France and Germany is a first step in its wider strategy to build market share throughout the European Union and the Americas. “Once we’ve established ourselves as a trusted software provider in these countries we will look to establish distribution into other parts of Europe and Latin America as well,” said Bianco.

At the HID Global booth at the Cartes exhibition, representatives will be available to provide demonstrations about Asure ID as well as answer questions.
