FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Mortgage Software Group Selects Pixion’s
Picturetalk Web Conferencing Solution

PictureTalk Helps Mortgage Software Group Boost Sales
by 30 Percent in Less Than Two Months

PLEASANTON, Calif. – Jan. 28, 2003 – Pixion, Inc., the leader in cross-platform Web conferencing solutions, announced today that Mortgage Software Group, Inc., a sales distributor for Calyx Software, the market leader in front-end mortgage processing software, has implemented Pixion’s PictureTalk™ Enterprise Conference Server (ECS) Web conferencing solution as its primary online communications platform.

Mortgage Software Group tried several Web conferencing solutions, including PlaceWare and WebEx, before implementing PixtureTalk ECS. Installed on Mortgage Software Group’s server and behind its network firewall, PictureTalk provided the company increased control, consistent performance and the ability to fully tailor the product for its business communication needs. PictureTalk ECS has enabled Mortgage Software Group to collaborate in real-time for internal business conferencing, customer sales presentations and training programs for customers and staff.

“Within the first six-to-eight weeks of using PictureTalk, our sales increased by more than 30 percent and we saw a significant ROI,” said Robert Madsen, president, Mortgage Software Group. “With PictureTalk our sales teams are able to conduct a series of sales meetings with multiple companies in one day, when previously, a single sales meeting required several days of travel and in-person time.”

PictureTalk’s intuitive, easy-to-use interface enables staff across Mortgage Software Group’s remote offices to communicate in real-time and conduct meetings instantly and without lengthy integration or training. Staff members can also adjust the speed of presentations to compensate for recipient system and bandwidth differences because of Pixion’s unique Capture Frame® technology, which notifies the presenter when the conference participants have received the shared information on individual desktops.

“Mortgage Software Group is a great example of how companies can use PictureTalk to help increase revenue while simultaneously diminishing costs and significantly enhancing customer satisfaction and communication,” said William Dorman, president and CEO, Pixion. “PictureTalk is the perfect tool for real-time interactive sales demonstrations and training.”
