Bricsnet Positioned in the Leaders Quadrant for Integrated Workplace Management Systems Magic Quadrant 2005

SAN FRANCISCO—(BUSINESS WIRE)—Jan. 18, 2006— Bricsnet, a global leader of Real Estate Lifecycle Management positions, today announced it has been positioned by Gartner, Inc., in the leaders quadrant in the "Magic Quadrant for Integrated Workplace Management Systems, 2005" report (source: Magic Quadrant for Integrated Workplace Management Systems, 2005; by Michael A. Bell; December 20, 2005).

According to Gartner, "leaders" are vendors who are performing well today, have a clear vision of market direction, and are actively building competencies to sustain their leadership position in the market.

"We are pleased the top analyst firm positions Bricsnet in the leader quadrant for Integrated Workplace Management Systems," said Farid Jinian, CEO of Bricsnet. "We're proud of our heritage as pioneers in this industry, and our technological excellence and vision has been unmatched in this space. We feel this confirms our success in becoming a highly service-oriented company and in our constant commitment to elevate our platform to the very best in enterprise applications and Internet technology. Our customers are taking advantage of the value that enterprise-wide integration around corporate real estate operations offers, and the much greater control BuildingCenter provides them in making better business decisions."

Over the last year, Bricsnet has put in place a new management team that has rapidly transformed the technology and service capabilities of the company. In October, the company announced the Sierra release 3.8 of its flagship product, BuildingCenter(TM), a web-based Integrated Real Estate Lifecycle Management solution that gives companies greater control over their real estate assets and operations. BuildingCenter 3.8 marks an industry shift to a new web-based platform architecture of leading-edge technologies such as Java and AJAX that dramatically improves the user interface, user configurability, and the speed and flexibility of the user experience.

Real estate assets and operations comprise the second-largest expense for most companies. Bricsnet believes the IWMS market is slated for strong growth over the next several years, due in part to its own leadership role in advancing the industry away from proprietary point solutions to an integrated, web-based, 24/7 global view of real estate assets and operations.
