Encore solution |

|
| NEW YORK, New York — May 21,
2002 — Whitney Group has selected the Cluen Corporation's Encore
Search Management software as part of their ongoing strategy of leveraging
their data into knowledge and maintaining their vast relationships in multiple
industries. Encore, along with Cluen's Slingshot — a wireless solution
that allows recruiting teams to collaborate in real-time while on the move
— will allow the company to fully control the depth of market intelligence
and knowledge it has assembled during the last decade. |
|
| "Encore should enable our consulting
staff to be more effective in terms of probing the information that is in our
database," said Jeff Sussman, Chief Operating Officer of the Whitney Group.
"The ability to leverage things like 'Relativity' and use Encore's Full Text
Search capabilities will help them crystallize their understanding of the
different relationships people have. After all, this is a relationship business
and making better use of the information we have at our fingertips can be
invaluable." |
|
| In pursuit of the ideal application,
the Whitney Group considered creating their own customized solution before
looking at the Encore Search Management software, but discovered that
developing custom software carries amazingly high costs and leads to problems
in development schedules, bug testing and emergency technical
support. |
|
| "Cluen's technology is an ideal fit
for the Whitney Group's highly evolved approach to organizing and sharing
information," said Andrew Shapiro, President of Cluen. "Whitney shares our
vision that information about experience and relationships is a vital asset to
any executive search firm. Those recruiting organizations that can properly
leverage the data that comes across their desks have a great competitive
advantage. Cluen is proud to supply the tools that help them to do what they do
best." |
