BEIJING--18 May--Xinhua-PRNewswire-AsiaNet/InfoQuest According to a report published by IDC recently, UFIDA was ranked as the NO.1 local ERM software vendor in the APEJ Region in 2005, and the market share of its ERP software apparently surpassed that of Microsoft. Another four Chinese software vendors were ranked among the first 20 ERM software vendors within the region. This is the best achievement ERP software vendors in the region have ever made and means China's ERP software industry is rising with the same rapid development as China's economy and playing an increasingly important role in the region. UFIDA surpassed international counterparts in 2002 and has remained the leading software vendor in China since then. It achieved even better development in 2005, when its main business income exceeded RMB1 billion, up 37.87%, and net profit increased by 42.33%. Chairman and President of UFIDA Wang Wenjing said: 'UFIDA will strengthen business with its partners,accelerate construction of the ERP industrial chain, further improve the service network for users, popularize the successful ERP application patternstressing ??standard, industry specific and customized' and increase our marketcoverage and occupancy rate continuously. There is good reason to believe that UFIDA will achieve greater development in 2006." The above data on ERM software in the APEJ Region comes from IDCAsia/Pacific Semiannual Enterprise Application Tracker, 2H2005. The report points out that the rapid rise of Chinese ERP software companies is attributable to the rapid development in application of ERP software by small and medium-sized enterprises in the Asia-Pacific Region and popularization of information applications in China. IDC compiled the report based on investigations made in Australia, India, South Korea, Malaysia, New Zealand,China, Singapore and Thailand. The development of ERP software is closely connected with the overall development of China's enterprises, and the rising demand for ERP software with the development of China's economy, will inevitably give birth to one or many world-class ERP software suppliers. With the expansion of the market share of Chinese ERP software companies in the Asia-Pacific Region, the issue of internationalization has attracted general attention and UFIDA ERP software has been sold to many countries and places in Asia.
