Pixion, Inc.'s 'PictureTalk' Software Used by Clarify Inc. for Internal Sales Training Applications

PLEASANTON, CA, June 16, 1999 – Pixion, Inc. (formerly PictureTalk), the leading supplier of Internet-based visual communication solutions, announced today that Clarify Inc. (Nasdaq: CLFY) is now using its PictureTalk software for internal sales training applications.

Acknowledged as the world's second largest front office software provider, Clarify is using PictureTalk's award-winning, Web-based presentation software to provide virtual online training to its sales representatives nationwide. PictureTalk is currently installed on all PCs used by Clarify's corporate and field sales organizations, and PictureTalk-based training sessions are being conducted on a bi-weekly basis.

"We selected PictureTalk because it is the only product of its kind that allows you to capture an application and present it in real-time to any kind of audience," said Michael Yallech, Sales Operation Analyst for Clarify Inc. "We truly believe it's the best technology out there today."

Prior to adopting PictureTalk for internal training use, Clarify has been using the product for a year-and-a-half in support of other applications. In particular, PictureTalk has been used to facilitate ŒWebseminars' showcasing the popular Clarify eFrontOffice product, and other products as well. Additionally, the software has been used for new product launches, for remote real-time product demonstrations, and as a virtual technical support tool for diagnosing and resolving problems with the PCs used by Clarify's field sales representatives.

"PictureTalk allows us to reach customers, prospects and salespeople economically, without sacrificing the quality of the information being presented," added Michael Yallech. "Thanks to PictureTalk, we've been able to save thousands of dollars in travel expenses."

Pixion's critically acclaimed PictureTalk software enables sales and marketing organi-zations to deliver live presentations effectively and profitably over the Internet. With PictureTalk, companies can present software demonstrations, slide shows, text files and spreadsheets live over the Internet to prospects, customers, partners and internal staff at remote locations. A powerful and versatile solution, PictureTalk can be used to generate sales leads, shorten sales cycles, train customers, resellers and partners, increase productivity and reduce travel expenses.

Clarify eFrontOffice takes the front office to the next level by integrating, consolidating, and routing information from every customer interaction&Mac247;whether it's Web-based, via e-mail, over the phone, or face-to-face. It uniquely combines customer relationship management, Internet relationship management and
e-business capabilities in a single solution that allows companies to quickly deploy e-business sales and service initiatives.
