Press Release Summary: Collanos Lays the Foundations for Team Workplace of the
future. Collanos Workplace has been thoroughly optimized and the teamwork functions
have been largely extended.

Press Release Body: The foundation of Collanos Workplace has been thoroughly
optimized and the teamwork functions have been largely extended. Collanos now
includes a Team Instant Messenger environment. In addition, Collanos Workplace 1.3
sets standards as to a comprehensive user task management. Team members can work
with their own Windows, Mac or Linux systems, and the results will be available to
the other team members on the internet –as simply and fast as using a server-based
solution.

Collanos has boosted the technology behind its p2p (peer to peer) platform. Any
online team member can ensure that all other team members, even if online only for a
short period, have access to the most up-to-date workspace content.

The most noticeable improvement from a user´s perspective is the new task management
function which is now accessible from all across Workplace. In an overview window,
the user can view, track and maintain all the tasks across all his workspaces. In
addition, a new Collanos Instant Messenger has been integrated into the teamwork
environment. It allows team members to conduct dialogs, discuss issues and work out
creative solutions by using the chatting function.

The extensions of version 1.3 will allow Collanos to develop and offer new features
in the upcoming months. “The extensions of the peer-to-peer technology allow
Collanos partners and service providers to offer value-added services”, explains
Franco Dal Molin, president and CTO of Collanos Software. “These offerings include
persistent, secure and reliable data storage, permanent team synchronization and the
possibility to access workspace content from the browser. Messaging is planned to be
augmented with team messaging and voice/video functionality. As in task management,
other relevant team work tasks will be supported Workplace-wide, for example, in the
form of team calendars and other tools for planning and change management.”

Workplace 1.3 is seen as the turning point for Collanos to establish itself clearly
as the leading cross-company teamwork environment on the internet. Peter
Helfenstein, CEO of Collanos Software, is convinced: “The solid foundation to
support ad-hoc teamwork has been established. Teamwork has always been of great
importance. In our globally networked world, effective teamwork has become the
crucial factor of success. With Collanos Workplace 1.3, the required platform and
tools are now available to everybody.”

The free software can be downloaded from Collanos\' website.
