Santa Cruz County implements Xenos infoWEB™ Software

TORONTO, Ontario, March 18 2003. Xenos (TSX: XNS), the data to e-content company™, today announced that Santa Cruz County has implemented Xenos infoWEB software in order to improve operational and communications efficiencies of the organization, by streamlining the delivery of information to its employees and constituents.

Santa Cruz County was seeking a way to eliminate paper reports, such as payroll reports, human resources reports, financial reports, telecom bills, benefits statement and case data reports. Paper reports are expensive and some end users needed to analyze the data in the reports they were receiving.

With implementation of Xenos' infoWEB software solution, Santa Cruz now has fast, reliable online access to mission critical reports, the ability to extract data from online reports into spreadsheets, enhanced security for confidential information and greatly reduced paper storage and printing cost.

Santa Cruz County chose infoWEB based on its advanced distribution and viewing capabilities, rapid implementation, ease of use and the no per client costs pricing model.

"With infoWEB, we have an easy to use product with advanced functionality at an affordable price," said Karen Gillette of Santa Cruz. "Based on the benefits we are already achieving, we plan to use infoWEB to deliver all of our reports which do not need to be in paper format. In addition, Xenos implemented infoWEB with minimal assistance, conducted excellent training classes leaving our staff confident that they can administer the product on an ongoing basis."

"Like most businesses, Municipal Governments are looking for ways to improve their operations and achieve rapid returns," said Jim Farmer, President and COO of Xenos. "Our infoWEB software helps organizations reduce costs associated with printing reports and provides online report recipients with added functionality."
