For Immediate Release
Introducing An Entirely New Era in Real Time Data Collaboration and Communication

Today, with online communications, we are largely in a back-and-forth, send-and-receive mode. Often multiple copies are distributed and even more copies are created and re-circulated with everyone's input, resulting in unnecessary duplications, multiple versions, security issues, and plenty of room for miscommunication.

But what if you could: View, share, mark-up and manipulate virtually any electronic data in real time instantly with others -- from simple Microsoft Office documents, PDFs and digital photos to complex graphics, CAD and 3D models -- with the same ease, spontaneity and unencumbered interactivity as the telephone?

That's the idea behind eZ (www.ezmeeting.com) developed by New York based Sigma Design. It works on both the Internet (even on 56 modem dial-ups) and corporate networks, including LANs, WANS and VPNs, with or without firewalls.

eZ is a radically different, but amazingly simple new approach to electronic information sharing that fundamentally improves human communication while making data management more efficient and secure. eZ essentially gets us out of the send/receive mode and makes data collaboration instantaneous - no delay, even on a 56K modem. It increases ten-fold the speed, accuracy and effectiveness of phone discussions or instant chat - one-to-one or in groups - by simply adding a powerful visual dimension, giving real meaning to the phrase, "Ah, now I see what you mean!"

With eZ software, share anything on your PC with anyone, anywhere, "live", regardless of whether the application that created the document is on everyone's computer. View. Rotate. Redline. Perhaps, even introduce other data for comparison. Anything that you and others do to the data in an eZ conference is displayed instantly on everyone's computer as it happens.

What makes eZ so fast and secure? A peer-to-peer design coupled with a patented geometric and graphics engine. Users collaborate directly with the computer where the data is stored. People can see and react to the information, but they cannot save or print the documents being shared unless the host of the document allows it. This not only minimizes duplications freeing up precious computing and data management resources, but also protects corporate intellectual property and reduces the spread of viruses.

eZ is also a universal document viewer and shareable file format. It allows you to compile multiple documents types into one document that can be can be shared, viewed, or marked up in real time or offline with other eZ users, regardless of their individual system software.

eZ is currently available for Windows 95, 98, NT, 2000, Me and XP. A fully functional trial version can be downloaded free at www.ezmeeting.com. For more information or to purchase online, visit the website or call toll free, 888-990-0900.
