Symmetry Solutions Receives Prestigious Award

Value-added reseller named one of the best for sales, service and support

Minneapolis, MN - Symmetry Solutions (Minneapolis, MN) today announced that, for the second year in a row, Dassault Systèmes SolidWorks Corp. (DS SolidWorks) has awarded them entry into the prestigious 2009 SolidWorks Elite 190 Club.

The special award is given only to SolidWorks value-added resellers (VARs) who exceed the highest standards for customer retention, subscription renewals
and technical support responsiveness.

'The Elite 190 Club recognizes the best of the best. Symmetry Solutions has earned this distinction for the second year because of its obsession with helping customers develop world-class products with SolidWorks engineering design software,' said Jeff Ray, chief executive officer of DS SolidWorks. 'Those customers have responded in kind with loyalty rates that are the envy of the technology industry. I congratulate everyone at Symmetry Solutions for reaching the pinnacle of customer-driven performance.'

Over 300 VARs competed worldwide for this rare and sought after recognition but only 3 VARs in North America (9 worldwide) reached the requirements to receive the award. Symmetry Solutions, which provides sales, support and training for SolidWorks users in the Midwest, also achieved the SolidWorks Elite 190 Club award in 2008.

'We have worked hard to build an organization that continually strives to improve users' experience with SolidWorks, whether that is matching software tools to solve business challenges, troubleshooting modeling problems, or keeping engineering departments fully trained,' said Paul Rudin, vice president of Symmetry Solutions. 'We are, of course, pleased to be recognized by DS SolidWorks, but keeping our customer's satisfied is the reward in itself. Customer satisfaction has been our focus since we started this business over 10 years ago.'
