Delaware Firm Chooses Omega Legal as New Time,

Billing & Accounting System

Firm Lauds Software as Easy to Use, Cost-Effective, Accurate

PHOENIX— Dec. 21, 2005—Omega today announced that Barros, McNamara, Malkiewicz & Taylor, P.A. of Dover, Delaware, has chosen Omega Legal as its new time, billing and accounting software. After evaluating several other options, including PC Law, the firm concluded that Omega Legal was easier to use, offered more meaningful and accurate information in its reports and was more cost effective. The firm expects to go live in February.

The firm’s previous financial software provider had been acquired and they were no longer getting the support they needed. Patricia L. Keen, the firm’s bookkeeper, said the firm originally planned to move to an application service provider model but it preferred that the data be stored onsite — and the ASP wasn’t cost–effective either.

“We were able to test several offerings online and Omega Legal truly proved itself as the most user friendly and most cost–effective offering that would give us the meaningful reports we need,” Keen said. “We then surveyed other firms in Delaware that were using the software and they all highly endorsed it. That’s a strong recommendation.”

“With Omega Legal, we can now easily check for conflicts as well as run profitability reports from one software,” she added. “There were less expensive products out there but we feel this one is definitely worth it for us.”

Omega Legal is an integrated financial and practice management software system that enables instant access to a firm’s most up—to—the—minute financial, statistical and historical information from a single server. Based on the powerful and scalable InterSystems Caché™ post—relational database, there are no performance issues, even when generating month—end bills or detailed financial reports. This enables Omega Legal to meet the demanding data storage and day—to—day performance requirements of a growing firm. Some Omega clients, like The Cavanagh Law Firm, have been using Omega Legal for nearly 30 years and still only require a single server. Cache has more than 4 million users worldwide and supports SQL reporting, but does not require a dedicated system administrator to manage or maintain.
