Launched, Hosted Collaboration Service

San Francisco, CA – January 18, 2005– Actify Inc., the worldwide leader in client-server design visualization and collaboration solutions for the high technology, automotive, aerospace, industrial automation and discrete manufacturing industries, announced that ENGINEERING.com (TSXV: EGN) has selected and implemented Actify's SpinFire Professional 2004v2 as their visualization component of choice for its new hosted collaboration service. The ENGINEERING.com Collaboration Suite is a hosted solution designed for manufacturers to help them manage new product introductions across distributed design and manufacturing teams. The suite includes file viewing, web conferencing, project management and document management tools.

SpinFire Professional 2004v2 is designed to enable easy and secure access, communication and distribution of multiple 2D/3D CAD file formats, and related design documents, throughout global enterprises and worldwide supply chains, without requiring access to native CAD systems. This allows for paperless distribution of complex design data so companies will realize cost savings and productivity gains in product design, procurement, quoting and estimation, manufacturing, sales, marketing and support.

"For our new Collaboration Suite, we needed a robust visualization technology that truly allowed product management teams to easily share crucial design data," said John Hayes, president of ENGINEERING.com. "After a thorough evaluation of the 2D and 3D CAD visualization tools available on the market, we felt Actify's offerings would best meet our clients needs."

"We are convinced that no other visualization solution comes close to Actify in providing such a rich set of features that can be called 'true' digital design communication," said Randy Ochs, President and CEO of Actify. "We are pleased to partner with ENGINEERING.com to offer our industry-leading design communication technology on a subscription basis so that product management teams can more readily share their critical design data with suppliers, customers, and internal users."
