ZANTAZĀ® Inks Partnership with Idea Integration

Leading Systems Integrator Awarded IT Contract for Duval County Public School District, Includes ZANTAZ EAS

PLEASANTON, CA (July 6, 2005) - ZANTAZ, Inc., the global leader in Information Retention and Discovery Management (IRDM) solutions, and Idea Integration, the technology solutions and systems integration unit of MPS Group, Inc. (NYSE:MPS) today announced a strategic partnership agreement that enables Idea Integration to extend the capabilities of ZANTAZ' award-winning email archiving and management product family, ZANTAZ Enterprise Archive Solution (EAS) to its customers. Idea Integration will offer its clients a cost-effective, highly scalable email management solution for storage optimization and message retention as a part of its collaboration suite, which also includes MicrosoftĀ® ExchangeĀ® Messaging System, SharePointĀ® Portal Server, and Live Communications Server. Idea Integration combines best practices, proven processes, and technical knowledge with best-of-breed products, allowing organizations to meet significant IT challenges and realize maximum value.

"Idea Integration is a highly respected and committed integrator with a client list that speaks to its leadership and success. Developing strong relationships with market leaders such as Idea Integration is a key strategy to growing our business," said Ken Edoff, Vice President of Channel Marketing, ZANTAZ. "Idea Integration brings to ZANTAZ a wealth of experience in selling, deploying, integrating and managing complex messaging infrastructures. The combination of Idea Integration's system integration expertise and ZANTAZ EAS brings tremendous value to organizations looking for scalable email archiving and management solutions to optimize their storage systems and manage information-related risk."

Through Idea Integration's expertise with Government and Fortune 1000 customers, ZANTAZ will extend the market reach of its ZANTAZ EAS product in the North American market. As part of this partnership, Idea Integration will offer a comprehensive package to help its customers successfully archive and manage email and other forms of electronic communications.

"Organizations are struggling to manage the operational complexities surrounding email, and our clients are demanding solutions to help them gain control of this business-critical communications tool," said Jim Albert, President, Idea Integration. "With ZANTAZ EAS, we can offer a comprehensive solution that helps them effectively gain control of their messaging infrastructure while scaling for the future."

Under the terms of the agreement, ZANTAZ will also have access to Idea Integration's cutting-edge lab facilities in Jacksonville, Florida for technical testing and integration assistance in further extending its products and solutions offering.

Idea Integration also announced its first ZANTAZ EAS client, Duval County Public School District (DCPS). Idea Integration will replace DCPS' existing collaboration system with a more robust system that will include account automation, archiving, calendaring, messaging, antivirus support, and video teleconferencing. This system will include ZANTAZ EAS. Used by approximately 20,000 users, the new system will have faster connection and response times for teachers, larger storage capacities, and a comprehensive disaster recovery infrastructure. The highly scalable solution will allow data to be more easily and cost-effectively stored, managed, and retrieved.

"Our current electronic communication services do not meet the District's needs for functionality, current employee numbers, projected growth, or archiving requirements," said Craig Honour, Chief Information Officer, Duval County Public Schools. "Idea Integration was the top competitor in an open source competition for this contract because of their vision and expertise in implementing similar solutions for other organizations."
