Metafile Announces MetaViewer Enterprise 6.0


The next generation of web-enabled, report, content and workflow
management software

San Francisco, CA - March 15, 2002 - Building on over twenty years of software excellence, Metafile today unveiled its new standard for managing enterprise content. MetaViewer Enterprise 6.0 combines the traditional technologies of COLD, workflow and document imaging with content management, web-access, and content distribution into a customizable package for the entire extended enterprise.

"Rather than trying to reinvent our company and products to please the investor community, we have built on our 23 years of experience and listened closely to what our customers have been asking for. Enterprise 6.0 along with our supporting internet access product, MF.net and report / content distribution product MVR Content Distribution Server are the result," Metafile VP of Marketing, Nick Sprau explains. "

At the core of this new technology is Metafile's high performance full-text indexing engine. Enterprise 6.0 is able to index content using both traditional fields and by every word and at speeds that Metafile feels outperforms anything on the market today regardless of platform.

Metafile challenges any other solution in the world to process or
retrieve content faster than MetaViewer Enterprise, on any machine, PC, Midrange or Mainframe.

The following test using one report containing one million pages was conducted on a single PC with two 800 MHz processors, RAID storage and lGb memory:

Capture, Organize, Full text Index:
400 pages per second
20,000 lines of text per second
150,000 words per second
One million pages full-text indexed in less than 42 minutes.

Adding significant value in many instances to the Enterprise 6.0
implementation will be the MVR Content Distribution Server. This
technology is designed to 'Push' specific content to remote users in addtion to traditional retrieval. With the Content Distribution Server, MetaViewer Enterprise 6.0 can proactively send information to users based on what pages they need to see, in the medium of their choice, automatically.

This makes it possible for customers to receive a copy of their invoice and/or statement by fax or email. Payroll stubs can be distributed to your employees by email. Month-end reports can be burst according to territory and emailed to the appropriate manager in remote offices. The possibilities are endless, as can be the savings in postage, printing, and labor costs.

Content Distribution can send information via file copy, FTP, printer, MAPI compliant email, Microsoft Outlook email, Lotus Notes email, WinFax PRO, and RightFAX. The file copy, email, and FTP modules allow packaging information into either formatted text files or PDF. With the versatility provided by MVR Content Distribution Server, you have complete control of delivery and packaging.

Also complimenting Enterprise 6.0, is Metafile's web access product, MF.net. MF.net is compatible with all J2EE web servers and facilitates the personalized access to content through portals integrated with existing websites. Page-level security, specific web-interface, etc. can all be personalized according to existing web security log on name and password databases. If a new customer is added to the corporate website, MF.net knows it and allows access to their statement and only their statement, without any additional configuration of the Metafile system.
