DAY SOFTWARE REPORTS 80% LICENSE REVENUE GROWTH IN Q1 2010

Day Software Holding AG (SIX: DAYN, OTCQX: DYIHY), a leading provider of Web 2.0
content management and content infrastructure software, today announced
financial results for Q1 2010. Day`s results were positively impacted by
expanded sales and marketing efforts in Q1 with stronger-than-expected traction
in the United States, U.K. and with global channel partners, including OEM
partner HP.

For the quarter, Day reported total (unaudited) license growth of 80% and total
revenue growth of 48%. License growth came from both major new customer wins and
installed base demand for expanded deployments and new product modules following
Day`s latest release of its CQ5 platform in Q1. Day also reported strong
customer renewals with recurring maintenance revenue growing 37%. Income before
tax for Q1 2010 rose to 18%.

Day`s expanded go-to-market programs strengthened not only operations in the
U.S. and U.K. but also Day`s presence in four of its primary vertical markets.
In Media / Communications, Day added new customers Skype in the U.K., Il Sole 24
in Italy, and BET and New York Media in the United States. In Financial
Services, Day added Scottrade in the United States, HUK Coburg in Germany, and
saw major reorders from existing customers Royal Bank of Scotland (RBS) in the
U.K. and Groupe Mutuel in France. In the Research / Higher Education vertical,
Day expanded its customer community in the United States with the addition of
Radford University and Kentucky University, and in Automotive, Day secured
expanded deployments at General Motors (GM), Daimler, and Audi.

In Q1 Day also saw accelerated momentum in its Channel and OEM programs. In the
first quarter, Day added two new major interactive agency partners in the United
States, Molecular and Ironworks, continuing Day`s momentum building an ecosystem
of solution providers around its CQ5 platform. In addition, Day saw new revenue
growth from its OEM program, with major OEM customer HP reporting their first
seven customer wins and OEM royalties for their embedded use of Day`s open,
standards-based ECM platform, CRX.

CEO Erik Hansen commented on Day`s results, "We continue to aggressively take
market share with CQ5 as customers worldwide look to invest in new solutions to
strengthen their global brand, improve online customer experience and
engagement, and drive new sources of revenue from the Web and mobile channels.
Our 2009 investments in sales, marketing, and product led to break-out results
in the U.S. and U.K. and better-than-expected results for Q1. We are also
exceptionally pleased to see the early success our partner HP has enjoyed with
their CRX-based solution."

Hansen concluded, "We have started off 2010 even better than we closed off 2009,
and will continue investments to further grow our business, with a focus on
bottom-line results. We are looking forward to continued momentum with our new
product releases and sales and marketing programs in 2010."

Day Software will be hosting its Q1 earnings call tomorrow, April 21st, at 9am
Eastern Daylight Time (EDT) / 3pm Central European Summer Time (CEST) today.
