CHEETAH SOFTWARE RECOGNIZED AS TOP 100 LOGISTICS IT PROVIDER 

Software Offers Proactive Solution to Combat High Cost of Transport

Cheetah Software Systems has once again taken top honors as an Inbound Logistics Top 100 Logistics IT (Information Technology) Provider for 2008. Selected for its real-time logistics solutions for the transportation industry, Cheetah is recognized for its ability to help carriers of all sizes improve their visibility, optimization, and responsiveness in today's increasingly difficult market conditions.

Solutions providers such as Cheetah Software empower logistics and supply chain management, continuing to offer innovative and practical solutions in the face of fast-changing challenges. During 2008, Cheetah Software consistently provided the kinds of technology solutions Inbound Logistics readers need to successfully manage their global enterprises. As shippers, carriers, and 3PLs increase their use of logistics IT, Cheetah Software continues to be flexible and responsive, anticipating customers' evolving needs. That's why Inbound Logistics editors have recognized Cheetah Software as one of 2008's Top 100 Logistics IT providers.

Most notably, Cheetah has helped its customers overcome economic adversity by reducing labor costs, miles driven, and fuel usage-all while increasing profitability, improving customer satisfaction, and enhancing competitiveness. With fuel prices over $4/gallon and a record $135 billion fuel spend predicted for 2008 (an 18% increase over 2007), carriers are increasingly aware of the importance of implementing smart, automated logistics technology to replace costly manual processes.

Large and small, carriers are benefiting from Cheetah's industry-leading time to return on investment. Ward Trucking, for example, almost immediately increased its number of stops by 10%, even while reducing miles driven by 6%. By intelligently optimizing routes and responding quickly and effectively to in-route events, Ward paid for its investment in Cheetah within the first six months.

According to Greg Confer, Vice President of Asset Management for Ward, "The decrease in miles driven alone has saved us over a million dollars per year in fuel savings."

"Competition in the transportation industry is tighter than ever and is compounded by soaring overhead costs", said Stephan Karczag, Vice President for Cheetah Software. "Cheetah is recognized by the transportation industry as a proven solution to help address these problems while increasing margins for the short- and long-term."
