Press Release Summary: Avidian Technologies, the leading provider of the easiest CRM
solution for Microsoft Outlook, was named one of the fastest-growing private
companies by the Puget Sound Business Journal. Avidian earned this distinction
through the success of its flagship product, Prophet 5. As the easiest CRM solution
for Outlook, Prophet 5 provides powerful sales automation functionality.

Press Release Body: "It is an honor to be recognized by the Puget Sound Business
Journal, and we are happy so many companies have found tangible benefits from
Prophet 5," said Tim Nguyen, president and co-founder of Avidian. "Our customers
continue to use our offerings to grow their businesses and find its integration with
Outlook essential to the success of their sales processes."

Unlike traditional big iron CRM or sales management software, Prophet is built into
Outlook, eliminating the need to manage multiple contact databases or toggle between
separate applications. Built on the .NET 2.0 platform, Prophet works entirely inside
Outlook and easily integrates with other critical business capabilities. As a
result, Prophet turns Outlook data into the building blocks of an effective sales
management solution.

The Fastest-Growing Private Companies program was launched 14 years ago by the Puget
Sound Business Journal to identify and recognize companies speeding to the top of
their industries. To be eligible, companies must: be privately held and
headquartered in Washington; have at least $500,000 in net revenue in 2005; show an
overall growth from 2005 to 2007 fiscal years; and agree to have their CPA confirm
their net operating revenues with Puget Sound Business Journal and accounting
partner Grant Thornton.

The 100 Fastest-Growing Private Companies program is presented by the Puget Sound
Business Journal; co-presented by Grant Thornton; and sponsored by KeyBank, Lane
Powell, Microsoft, Mortenson Construction and Robert Half International.
