Business Wire, May 11, 2006

RESTON, Va. -- CorasWorks Corporation, the leading provider of workplace application software on the Microsoft(R) SharePoint(R) collaboration platform, today announced its product release schedule for continued support for SharePoint 2003 and the upcoming next generation platform - Microsoft Office SharePoint 2007.

Released in the fall of 2003, SharePoint 2003 represents the current generation of the SharePoint platform which includes Windows SharePoint Services 2003 and SharePoint Portal Server 2003. Since the launch of SharePoint 2003, CorasWorks has had 7 major releases of its flagship product - the CorasWorks Workplace Suite(TM) offering a complete system to design, create, and manage a workplace of inter-connected business applications without requiring custom programming.

Microsoft's next generation collaboration platform of Windows SharePoint Services 2007 and Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 (MOSS 2007), are due to be released by the end of 2006. With more than 600 customers in 23 countries and 400,000 deployed CorasWorks users currently on the 2003 platform, CorasWorks plans to continue innovation on the 2003 platform throughout the next year while releasing a clear roadmap for its customers to migrate to and leverage the next generation platform.

"Our investments to leverage the new capabilities of the Office SharePoint 2007 platform will provide CorasWorks customers' with a whole new level of business application functionality that rivals leading commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) applications that are not on the platform. By continuing to innovate for the 2003 platform and announcing our support schedule for SharePoint 2007, our customers can be assured of consistent delivery of new business value to their workplaces, today, tomorrow and into the SharePoint 2007 era," said William Rogers, CEO of CorasWorks.
