FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE.

Maintenance Connection Announces Smart Client Technology

Davis, CA – April 25, 2005 - Maintenance Connection, Inc., a Northern California developer of web-based maintenance management software, today announced its Smart Client Technology available to a select few clients prior to its general release.

The award-winning Maintenance Connection platform is based on web technologies that can be easily deployed at the Customer's site (or hosted over the Internet), and then accessed by a number of different client technologies.  These client technologies now include:

1) Thin Client (Web Browser such as Internet Explorer)
2) Smart Client (Small, Intelligent, Self-updating Application that resides on the User's Computer)
2) Pocket PC
3) Palm Pilot
4) BlackBerry
5) Cell Phones

Because Maintenance Connection has been web-architected from it's inception, it allows each of it's customer to choose the best client technologies that suite their unique business needs.  Customers can choose a single client technology or several client technologies together - all on the same platform.

"Many Vendors that supply Facility Maintenance and Asset Management Software have chosen to bypass the Thin Client (or Web Browser) client technology and only provide their customers with Smart Clients.  Maintenance Connection provides both Thin Client and Smart Client technologies - in addition to mobile client technologies such as the Pocket PC, Palm Pilots, the BlackBerry, and Cell Phones." says Brad Squires, Maintenance Connection's Manager of Business Development.
