San Mateo, CA and Richmond, VA - Aug. 3, 2010 - Aria Systems, Inc. (http://www.AriaSystems.com), the leading provider of cloud billing and subscription management solutions, today announced that Lionbridge (NASD: LIOX), a leading provider of translation, development, and testing solutions, has deployed Aria Platform Enterprise Edition. Dominion Digital, an Aria Certified Systems Integrator Partner delivered the implementation which provides automated self-service and self-activation for Lionbridge clients in more than 100 countries around the world.

Lionbridge Technologies, Inc. provides translation, development and testing solutions. Lionbridge combines global resources with proven program management methodologies to serve as an outsource partner throughout a client's product and content lifecycle - from development to translation, testing and maintenance. Global organizations rely on Lionbridge services to increase international market share, speed adoption of global products and content, and enhance their return on enterprise applications and IT system investments. Lionbridge reported revenues of $389 million in 2009.

Aria Platform Enterprise Edition was selected to power Lionbridge's GeoWorkz.com, ecommerce site featuring access to the company's first on-demand commercial software application, Translation Workspace. The Aria-based commerce solution automates client registration and activation, fee calculation, invoicing and collections in more than 100 countries, fully compliant with all local tax, VAT, and statutory reporting requirements. The Aria Platform serves as the cloud-based automation center, automating revenues while integrating with a wide variety of systems including the European Commission's VAT Information Exchange System ("V.I.E.S."), a campaign management system, an incident management system, Chase Paymentech and PayPal for payment processing, and ISTWatch for Patriot Act compliance. After evaluating multiple alternatives, Lionbridge selected Aria based on Aria's pure SaaS architecture, economically scalable pricing model, and ability to enable market agility with rapid promotions and adjustments to respond to market feedback.

Dominion Digital, an Aria Certified Systems Integrator Partner managed the implementation. "We are excited to be working with Aria Systems and helping businesses to leverage cloud-based platforms," said Anthony Wenzel, senior vice president for technology solutions at Dominion Digital.
