CoCreate Named to Forbes "Best of the Web" Directory for 2nd Consecutive Year

OneSpace.net Recognized in Collaboration Software Category

FORT COLLINS, Colo., and SINDELFINGEN, Germany - October 22, 2004 - CoCreate Software, Inc., a leading provider of 3D CAD and collaboration software, today announced that Forbes has again included CoCreate Software in its annual "Best of the Web" business-to-business guide. Forbes recognized CoCreate's OneSpace.net software as one of only seven companies in the diverse and highly competitive collaboration software category.

Companies were judged on several criteria, including strategy, execution, financial staying power, and Web site. CoCreate was selected in large part due to its support for intra-company and inter-company business processes, as well as its focus on the unique collaboration needs of engineering and product development teams. Forbes praised OneSpace.net's ability to synchronize files among enterprise systems, saying it "relieves the headaches that firewalls sometimes cause when trying to share data across networks."

Technologies such as XML and web services enable OneSpace.net to synchronize data controlled in enterprise platform products such as PLM, PDM, and ERP with the OneSpace.net project workspace. As a result, enterprises can couple OneSpace.net to their own data and process management systems as well as to those of their suppliers, allowing team members anywhere to access the right version of project data.

"OneSpace.net debuted in 2003. Our second consecutive appointment to the Forbes Best of the Web guide marks the second year of excellence for OneSpace.net, as well," said William M. Gascoigne, CoCreate CEO. "We are grateful for the continued recognition of CoCreate's commitment to provide collaboration software that plays an important part in enterprise project lifecycle management strategies."

OneSpace.net is designed specifically for product development teams and their contributors. It includes a secure project workspace, an integrated meeting center for web-based meetings, application sharing, instant messaging, decision and task tracking, and a 3D model explorer for evaluating product designs. It is available as either a hosted service for $120 per user per month or as a licensed product for $995 per user.
