eQuorum Receives "Up-and-Comer" Recognition from MSI Magazine as Part of Top Vendor Survey

ImageSite Document Management Software is Highlighted

ATLANTA, GEORGIA - JULY 17, 2003 - eQuorum Corporation, a leading provider of Web-based engineering document collaboration and distribution software, announces its selection by MSI magazine as one of the quot;Up-and-Comersquot; of software for manufacturing firms. The list is featured in the July 2003 issue of MSI (formerly known as Manufacturing Systems) and includes software vendors surveyed in preparation for MSI's annual Top 100 Software List.

MSI covers technology used by manufacturers for the automation of plan, source, make, and deliver business and production processes. Their annual survey ranks software vendors who offer products for manufacturing, supply chain, and enterprise commerce based on their total revenues for the previous calendar year.

Commenting on its "Up-and-Comerquot; selection, eQuorum CEO Frank Fortson says, quot;It's an honor for eQuorum and our software to be recognized by the MSI researchers, especially among the caliber of companies represented. Everyone knows that 2002 was a tough year, yet eQuorum was profitable while many companies much larger than us were not.quot;

eQuorum's ImageSite®, a Web-based engineering document management application, lets firms store and manage large volumes of engineering documents online so they are directly accessible throughout an organization. Manufacturers use ImageSite inside the company's firewall as an engineering and technical document management system.

With just a Web browser, users from any department can easily find the documents they need, and view, markup, and hold real-time collaborative meetings. Users can plot to large format printers anywhere on the company's network. Outside a firewall, manufacturers use ImageSite for supply chain collaboration, and can conveniently distribute documents to others.
