Misys Sees Increase in Number of Go-Lives as Customers Seek Solutions to Optimise Risk, Reduce Costs and Improve Efficiency


LONDON, February 25 /PRNewswire/ --     Misys plc (FTSE: MSY.L), the global application software and services
company, today announces that more customers are benefiting from the advanced
solutions from its Banking and Treasury & Capital Markets businesses.

There were 174 customer go-lives during the first half of its financial
year (ended 30 November 2008). There have been many more since then, for
example the recently announced implementation at Bank of Hawaii, which is now
getting value from Misys Trade Portal, the award-winning online trade
services solution.

The go-live projects were carried out in close collaboration with Misys
customers in every region of the world. They ranged from new implementations,
upgrades that take advantage of the latest features of Misys solutions and
projects to enhance the risk management and compliance capabilities of its
clients.

In the current economic climate, financial institutions are increasingly
looking to existing partners to help them maximise the investment they have
made in technology solutions that will drive their business forward. The
increased level of successful projects undertaken by Misys in today's
difficult conditions reinforces Misys' position as a key strategic partner
for its growing global customer base.

Core to this achievement is the strength of the global team of
professional services experts, as Eileen McPartland, Executive Vice President
of Global Sales and Services, Misys points out. "The combination of our
skilled team of experts and the rigorous, standardised processes we have in
place at Misys makes sure that we deliver results for our clients as quickly
as possible every time. More customers are getting better value from our
solutions in a timeframe that meets their business objectives. We look
forward to continuing this service and enhancing our customers' experience of
us and our solutions still further."

Misys has built its customer base in more than 120 countries across the
world over the last 30 years and now has over 1,200 clients. This experience
makes it the best placed solutions provider focused on the financial services
market to help each customer to meet their individual business challenges.
