ISYS Search Software Celebrates 15 Years of Success and Technological Achievement in Information Retrieval

DENVER - July 15, 2003 - ISYS Search Software Inc., a global supplier of search software for business and government, today announced it is celebrating its 15th anniversary as a company. Founded in July 1988, ISYS has been supplying a broad range of industries with information retrieval tools that have set the standard for enterprise search over 15 years of technological innovation.

Launched initially as a text retrieval solution for systems running on DOS, the ISYS product suite evolved to focus on Windows-based search solutions for workgroups, enterprises and developers. With the introduction of the World Wide Web in 1993, ISYS soon issued complementary imaging, publishing and spidering technology. These tools enabled users to not only index and search external Web sites, but also to turn printed documents into instantly searchable and Web-ready electronic files.

"Witnessing the progression of technology over the last 15 years has been nothing short of spectacular," said Ian Davies, founder and managing director of ISYS. "Without question, we take great pride in knowing we've helped shaped the evolution of search technology, which is increasingly becoming a critical tool for the Fortune 1000. As this market matures rapidly, we look forward to capitalizing on our history and securing an enduring role for the future."

In its current sixth-generation release, ISYS searches across 30 languages and 125 file formats, including PDF, XML, email, attachments, WordPerfect, Office, .swf files, databases and OEM-defined formats. Over the course of its history, ISYS has secured installations with thousands of organizations operating in industries that include government, legal, law enforcement, financial services, recruitment and more. Today, these organizations use ISYS on their networks, corporate intranets, portals and Web sites to provide a single interface for searching across disparate data sources and file types.
