eBusiness Application Capability

Story 1409 (PSWT, VIGN)

AUSTIN, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--April 12, 2000--PSW Technologies, Inc.
(Nasdaq:PSWT), today announced that is has been chosen by Vignette Corporation
(Nasdaq:VIGN) to develop an application that demonstrates the power of combining
Vignette, with its recently announced breakthrough V/5 eBusiness application
platform, and Microsoft products to build e-business solutions.

PSW has developed a comprehensive e-commerce application written entirely in
Microsoft's Active Server Pages (ASP) that utilizes the new Vignette V/5
eBusiness platform COM interfaces for content management, lifecycle
personalization, and cache management.

In keeping with PSW's early-to-market, build and deploy business model, this
solution is the first and only working application of its kind. The application
demonstrates ASP applications running under the Vignette environment. This
application demonstrates how companies can leverage their existing ASP
development skills and applications to capitalize on the power of the Vignette
V/5 eBusiness application platform.

For the first time, ASP templates can directly access Vignette's industry leading
lifecycle personalization, content management, and page caching services through
COM interfaces. The result is a high performing, manageable site that delivers a
more powerful user experience.


"PSW has a proven track record in helping to maximize and integrate products that
provide high quality e-business solutions to our customers," said Bill Daniel,
Senior Vice President, Products, Vignette Corporation. "The development of this
new application is another demonstration how both companies provide leadership
and value to customers in the e-business market."


"Vignette is a strategic partner and we are pleased that they chose us to further
expand the Vignette economy. Together, we are first-to-market with an application
that fully illustrates the combined power of Microsoft and Vignette products. As
a result, we are in a position to provide companies with the critical insights
they need to be the first to realize these benefits," said Timothy D. Webb,
President and CEO of PSW Technologies. "This ground-breaking application sets a
new standard e-business solutions."
