KMWorld Magazine Recognizes ISYS:desktop as a 2004 Trend-Setting Product

ISYS Search Software's Industry-Leading Desktop Search Tool for Business and Government Acknowledged for Its Usability, Flexibility and Market Penetration

DENVER - Sept. 20, 2004 - ISYS Search Software (www.isys-search.com), a global supplier of enterprise search solutions for business and government, today announced KMWorld Magazine has recognized its ISYS:desktop product as one of the "Trend-Setting Products of 2004."

As in previous years, KMWorld Magazine compiled its list of products by enlisting the help of editorial colleagues, market analysts and end-users - from C-level executives to entry-level knowledge workers. Among the criteria considered were usability, flexibility, total cost of ownership and adoption rate.

"The demand for desktop search tools has been on the rise, thanks in part to companies like Microsoft and Google announcing their intentions to release consumer-focused desktop search products," said Hugh McKellar, editor-in-chief of KMWorld Magazine. "With a long history of providing desktop and network search software to businesses and government bodies, ISYS:desktop has already penetrated this portion of the market and is among those trend-setting products that shows continued promise in the business-to-business segment of desktop search."

As a sixth-generation product with more than 15 years of success, ISYS:desktop is the only software solution to completely address the desktop and network search needs of businesses and government organizations of all sizes. More than 10,000 organizations are ISYS:desktop customers, including the US Department of Homeland Security, the Australian Stock Exchange, Greenpeace International, BBC Technology, the USDA and dozens of law enforcement agencies worldwide.
