PALO ALTO, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--June 1, 2004

Copernic, a leading provider of cutting-edge information management solutions, today announced that more than 1500 organizations have installed Copernic Enterprise Search, a simple, powerful and secure search technology solution designed to meet the distinct needs of the Small-to-Medium-sized Enterprise (SME) and departments of larger enterprises. Already well-known to the 30 million users of its consumer product, Copernic Agent, Copernic has achieved significant industry traction in less than six months, with Copernic Enterprise Search.

Of the more than 1500 organizations worldwide to deploy Copernic Enterprise Search, many are focused in the financial services and healthcare industries, which require the uncompromised security and flexibility that Copernic Enterprise Search provides.

"We designed Copernic Enterprise Search to meet the unique requirements of the SME--powerful enough to handle the most data-intensive searches, yet simple to deploy and operate," said Martin Bouchard, President and CEO of Copernic. "Reaching more than 1500 deployments in less than six months is a testament that enterprises of all sizes, and in all industries are looking for a search solution that meet these requirements, and proof that Copernic Enterprise Search meets a need that has not yet been fulfilled by existing solutions."

This milestone comes on the heels of a recent agreement with InfoSpace, Inc., to offer Copernic's Enterprise Search indexing technology for site search through InfoSpace's network of search distribution partners. Copernic also recently announced the opening of its United States operations in Palo Alto, with future offices set to open across the United States and Europe.
