Visioneer Further Distinguishes Itself by Earning a Microsoft
Competency in OEM Hardware Solutions
PLEASANTON, Calif.--(Business Wire)--Visioneer(R), Inc., a leader in intelligent imaging solutions,
today announced it has attained Gold Certified Partner status in the
Microsoft Partner Program with a competency in OEM Hardware Solutions,
recognizing Visioneer's expertise and impact in the technology
marketplace. As a Gold Certified Partner, Visioneer has demonstrated
expertise with Microsoft technologies and proven ability to meet
customers' needs. Microsoft Gold Certified Partners receive a rich set
of benefits, including access, training and support, giving them a
competitive advantage in the channel.

Visioneer, a Xerox-licensing partner, is a world-class developer
of document imaging solutions. Visioneer OneTouch(R) technology,
bundled with both Visioneer and Xerox DocuMate brands, provides a
faster and easier way to capture documents with the single touch of a
button. Visioneer OneTouch Links then deliver documents to popular
Windows applications or workflows such as Microsoft SharePoint,
EMC/Captiva QuickScan Pro, Kofax Ascent Capture, Laserfiche Enterprise
and Intuition, Xerox DocuShare, and Westbrook Fortis.

"We are extremely pleased to have attained Gold Certified Partner
status in the Microsoft Partner Program. This allows us to clearly
promote our expertise and relationship with Microsoft to our
customers," said John C. Dexter, vice president of Business
Development at Visioneer. "The benefits provided through our Gold
Certified Partner status will allow us to continue to enhance the
offerings that we provide for customers."

"Customers are looking for partner companies that can bridge the
gap between their business demands and technology capabilities," said
Allison Watson, vice president of the Worldwide Partner Sales and
Marketing Group at Microsoft Corp. "They need to trust in a company
that can act as an expert adviser for their long-term strategic
technology plans. Microsoft Gold Certified Partners, which have
certified expertise and direct training and support from Microsoft,
can build a positive customer experience with our technologies. Today,
Microsoft recognizes Visioneer as a new Gold Certified Partner for
demonstrating its expertise providing customer satisfaction using
Microsoft products and technology."

As one of the requirements for attaining Gold Certified Partner
status, Visioneer had to declare a Microsoft Competency. Microsoft
Competencies are designed to help differentiate a partner's
capabilities with specific Microsoft technologies to customers looking
for a particular type of solution. Each competency has a unique set of
requirements and benefits, formulated to accurately represent the
specific skills and services that partners bring to the technology
industry.

The OEM Hardware Solutions Competency is intended for partners
that build and deliver desktop or server hardware systems, and those
that design and manufacture hardware devices used as computer parts,
peripherals or accessories. Partners that attain the OEM Hardware
Solutions Competency are recognized for their expertise in delivering
high-quality hardware solutions and are provided with information and
tools needed to expand their market opportunities and maintain a
competitive advantage in the industry. Specializations within the
competency include System Building and Device Manufacturing.

"Partners that acquire the OEM Hardware Solutions Competency have
demonstrated expertise and have a track record of building
high-quality hardware solutions that are designed and configured with
Microsoft technologies according to customer needs and supported to
ensure customer satisfaction," said Kurt Kolb, vice president of
Worldwide System Builder Channel and License Compliance at Microsoft.
"These partners are able to closely engage with Microsoft and have
access to specialized resources to help them meet and even surpass
customer expectations."

The Microsoft Partner Program was launched in October 2003 and
represents Microsoft's ongoing commitment to the success of partners
worldwide. The program offers a single, integrated partnering
framework that recognizes partner expertise, rewards the total impact
that partners have in the technology marketplace, and delivers more
value to help partners' businesses be successful.
