Delano Powers Macromedia Next-Generation Personalization Solution

TORONTO--Aug. 2, 2000--Delano Technology Corporation (NASDAQ:DTEC), a leading provider of interaction-based e-business solutions for the enterprise, today announced that Macromedia LikeMinds(TM) eMail, Macromedia, Inc.'s (NASDAQ:MACR) recently released e-mail campaign management application, is a Delano-powered product. LikeMinds eMail extends Macromedia's LikeMinds patented real-time personalization technology to enable marketers to interact more intuitively and effectively with customers.

``Macromedia is the acknowledged leader in comprehensive Web Content Lifecycle Solutions for the Web. As a result of our partnership formed earlier this year, Delano has played a critical role in helping Macromedia extend its technology to enable interaction management around its customers' online communities,'' said John Foresi, president and CEO of Delano. ``In addition to validating the strategic value of the Delano platform as a key enabling technology for software developers, Macromedia's confidence in our solution is further demonstrated with an internal site license for our products.''

Under the terms of the agreement, Macromedia licensed key components of the Delano(TM) e-Business Interaction Suite(TM), an e-business platform for developing and deploying interaction-based applications; and Delano Customer Velocity(TM), a fully integrated suite of e-marketing and e-service applications. Delano's open-architecture and event-driven solution was seamlessly integrated with Macromedia LikeMinds eMail to deliver automated personalized e-mail campaigns.

``Macromedia's vision is to provide integrated solutions that address every stage of the dynamic Web Content Lifecycle, from content design to production, delivery, personalization and analysis,'' said Stephen Elop, Senior Vice President and General Manager for Macromedia. ``Delano's technology enabled us to augment our product suite with solutions that extend personalized interactions between our customers and their target audiences.''
