    --  Visualization Collaboration Tools - Astea's cutting-edge HTML5 mobile

        solution has been leveraged by global organizations to increase engineer

        productivity, reduce costs and improve customer satisfaction. This

        release continues to build on that philosophy with optimized user

        navigation; the ability for a mobile user to work from multiple devices

        with complete synchronizations between devices; visualization tools to

        easily support self-dispatch; live chat connecting the field engineer

        with the back office; centralized parts order status view; and full

        bi-directional Microsoft Outlook synchronization. Astea's mobile

        solution provides the level of flexibility necessary that makes it easy

        for organizations to modify and adapt the solution, for different user

        profiles or businesses, without requiring development skillsets or

        adding additional costs.



    --  Your Service Platform, Your Way - A couple of years ago, Astea

        introduced an innovative customization tool that gives organizations the

        control they needed, without requiring coding, while still being able to

        take advantage of the latest and greatest Astea Alliance feature

        updates. With Astea Alliance 12.0, there are added capabilities to give

        non-technical users even more "do it yourself" tools, while Astea's

        framework actively governs these customizations making it easy to see

        what is custom and what is standard.



    --  Drive Proactive Support and Continuous Process Improvement - With Astea

        Alliance 12.0, there are more decision making visualization tools

        accessible from any device, to easily and quickly leverage insightful

        information for optimal process improvements, productivity and customer

        satisfaction.



    --  Easily Manage and Support a Company's Entire Service Ecosystem - When it

        comes to optimizing a company's service ecosystem, visibility and

        control become mission critical requirements to manage and track all of

        the people, internal and external to the organization, and processes

        that have an impact on the overall service experience for the customer.

        Astea has added a new customer satisfaction tracking capability to make

        it easy to collect as well review customer feedback at any time.

        Additionally, Astea continues to add enhancements to its scheduling

        optimization solution, leveraging the latest Microsoft technologies, to

        ensure optimal operational performance. Further enhancements have also

        been made in the area of Astea's Third Party Vendor Management,

        Contracts, Logistics, and Professional Services Automation (Projects).
