SYNNEX' State-of-the-Art SaaS Portal Supports Multiple SaaS Applications by Aggregation into a Single, Managed Console, Offering VARs a Dynamic, Real-Time Mode to Provision the End User Environment

GREENVILLE, S.C.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- SYNNEX Corporation (NYSE: SNX), a leading business process services company, today launched the SYNNEX software-as-a-service (SaaS) portal to support the adoption of SaaS applications throughout the reseller community. The SYNNEX SaaS portal offers resellers the ability to provision the usage of software as a hosted offering for their end customers and provides the flexibility to manage all aspects of the procurement cycle in a dynamic, real-time environment.

During its National Sales Conference, taking place in Greenville, South Carolina during October 7-9, 2009, SYNNEX will host breakout sessions outlining the capabilities of the new SYNNEX SaaS portal and will offer live demonstrations illustrating the ease-of-use and flexibility of the web tool.

Capabilities available through the SYNNEX SaaS portal are:

    --  Quote on Demand - Offering VARs an automatically generated web-quote of
        the MSRP and associated cost with a transaction.
    --  Contract Creation and Customization in a centralized online environment
        - Allowing VARs to adapt their end user's environment in real-time.
    --  Aggregation point for more than 10 hosted software-plus-service
        solutions.
    --  Multiple "bill to" options with automated capture of end user usage.

SYNNEX continues to make significant investments in strategic initiatives, such as the development of robust tools to support the adoption of SaaS, which clearly differentiates the Company from its competition and enables its resellers to pursue incremental opportunities. SYNNEX offers a one-stop management console, with the development of the SYNNEX SaaS portal, to support the evolution of SaaS. With a dedicated SaaS team, SYNNEX is well equipped to assist resellers through the entire SaaS adoption and procurement process.

"We view SaaS as a strategic opportunity for meaningful, incremental sales for our VAR community as the environment for how we procure software shifts from a traditional on-premise offering to a Cloud environment," stated Peter Larocque, President of U.S. Distribution at SYNNEX Corporation. "When we developed the SYNNEX SaaS portal, our goal was to make it as easy as possible for our solutions providers to buy all of their SaaS applications from one source and be able to provide one consolidated bill to their end customers. We accomplished this goal with this tool."
