CPA Global's Inprotech IP Practice Management Software Offers Law Firms Ultimate Flexibility With Full Web Access

Latest Release Designed to Help Law Firms Increase Efficiency While Enhancing Ability to Manage Clients' IP Portfolios

ALEXANDRIA, Virginia, July 12, 2011/PRNewswire/ --

    CPA Global, the world's leading intellectual property (IP) management
specialist and IP software solutions provider, announced today the
availability of Inprotech 7.0, offering law firms ultimate flexibility in
managing their clients' IP portfolios, as well as their own IP practice.

    This major new release is the latest in a series of product innovations
to come from CPA Global's ongoing investment in its market-leading software
solutions. Inprotech 7.0 provides a host of improvements, making it an
important tool both for practice management and decision-support. It is
designed to help law firms access better quality information more quickly,
thus increasing efficiency and saving valuable time; while offering even
greater flexibility through full web access. A key new feature is Prior Art
functionality, which enables law firms to provide the comprehensive
Information Disclosure reporting (IDS) now being requested by many national
IP offices.

    Inprotech IP practice management software is already installed in over
130 law firms across four continents. Release 7.0 has been developed using
Microsoft Silverlight web application technology, which allows users to
navigate and manipulate data more efficiently and makes sorting, grouping
and drilling down into details of cases easier than ever before. Inprotech
7.0 is also fully integrated with the Microsoft SQL Server Reporting
Services tool to ensure greater flexibility in reporting to clients.

    Other significant enhancements in Inprotech 7.0 include:

   
    - A sophisticated case data import and export solution,
      ideally suited to transferring case details between firms and agents;
    - 'Keep on Top Notes' that can be used as a constant reminder of
      important details about clients or procedural matters;
    - Data validation rules, which can be tailored to suit each firm,
      preventing errors and misunderstanding;
    - Improved and expanded Document Management System integration;
    - New file tracking in the web version of Inprotech 7.0, which
      allows paper files to be tracked, requested and monitored; and a more
      flexible billing system which provides more options for margins and
      discounts.

    Mark Wylde, CPA Global's Technology Services Director, said: "Inprotech
7.0 represents one of the most significant and innovative advances in IP
management software technology anywhere in the market today, and underlines
CPA Global's ongoing commitment to work with our software clients to
continue to improve the solutions we provide.

    "This latest release is designed to empower users by automating more
tasks; by offering simplified access via the web and a configurable user
interface; and by making real-time data more readily available. Users have
the ultimate flexibility to manage their clients' IP portfolios and practice
administration remotely, whether from home, other offices or even while
traveling. This, together with the more comprehensive information on cases
and greater flexibility in reporting that is available through Inprotech
7.0, enables users to respond on a timelier basis to requests and add
further value to the service they provide to their clients. Client service
is further enhanced by allowing clients to instruct online and by making
reports and case information available online to clients."

    The development of Inprotech 7.0 emphasises the importance of CPA
Global's ongoing dialogue with clients through its advisory council meetings
and annual software user conferences. CPA Global has separate Software
Advisory Councils (SACs) for each of its three market-leading software
solutions: FoundationIP, Memotech and Inprotech.
