Thomas Honoré, ColumbusColumbus turned in 12.7-percent revenue growth for the first quarter ended March 31. And its North American revenue was up by 14.8 percent despite the fact chargeable hours for its SMB business in United States declined to 55 percent from 58 percent in last year's corresponding period.

Total revenue for the Denmark-based reseller and software developer increased to about $45.4 million. The overall tale was that of the software industry generally with subscriptions rising and licenses decreasing.
