Business Editors/Technology Writers

SAN DIEGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Feb. 26, 2001

Symitar Systems, Inc., the premier provider of data processing solutions for the credit union industry, announced that it has introduced a service in which visitors may arrange for a live online Symitar for Windows or Conductor system demonstration via its website's WebEx Meeting Center service, from WebEx Communications, Inc., the leader in communications infrastructure for Web meetings. These platforms are the company's two core solutions. WebEx's services enable end-users to share content and applications spontaneously in a seamless environment with integrated audio, voice, and video. With its modular framework and standards-based APIs, WebEx's real-time communications platform is the "dial-tone" for meetings on the Web.

At www.symitar.com, the "Schedule a Live Demo" link (in the drop-down "Products" category) lets prospective clients submit a request form. At a mutually agreed upon time, a Symitar Product Specialist and a Sales Executive responsible for the interested credit union perform a one-hour system demonstration.

Symitar's WebEx Meeting Center merges digital visual media and voice, allowing for easy online sharing of information on the Web. Participants interact dynamically at anytime, and from anywhere; users need only a standard Web browser and a telephone to join the online forum. WebEx quickly checks new viewers' computer configurations to ensure compatibility.

"The WebEx Meeting Center gives us a fantastic way to whet the appetites of interested prospects," said Kathy Hooker, Symitar National Sales Manager. "It's teleconferencing taken to a whole new level. Our sales staff won't just lecture; they can instantly respond to viewers' comments and even 'draw' on the screen to highlight system features. Not only does this service save time and travel costs, but it maintains effective communication in a spontaneous and convenient environment."
