Allegria's "JumpStart" Program
Offers Full Support to Resellers Via the Internet
Special Introductory Offer: Buy 10 Copies and Get 5 More for Free


Laguna Hills, CA (April 12, 1996). Allegria Software has announced JumpStart, an aggressive new reseller program which provides full marketing and sales support via the Internet for Allegria's family of ForReview software products. Using Allegria's JumpStart program, a reseller can evaluate the opportunity; establish a relationship; obtain not-for-resale & downloadable evaluation products; and/or download full product & marketing documentation; all via Allegria's Internet website. In addition, those new resellers who sign up for the JumpStart program by July 4th, 1996, and order an initial inventory of 10 copies of any ForReview product, will receive an additional 5 copies for free.

According to Robert Bruns, Allegria Chief Operating Officer, "The newest versions of our ForReview view and mark-up products are already image-enabling the way corporations and individuals communicate over the Internet. With the rapidly expanding demand for these products, it made sense for us to also support-enable the Internet for our growing reseller base."

Allegria's ForReview software products give corporations, SOHOs and individuals a cost-effective method for viewing and marking-up sophisticated drawings and documents without the heavy investment of installing and running the CAD or drawing software packages that originally created them. For instance, members of a geographically dispersed design team can all quickly view and mark-up a shared CGM, HPGL or DXF drawing or a TIF, GIF or JPEG raster image. They can then easily e-mail their mark-ups to each other and overlay them for viewing on the original drawing or image; all without incurring the network traffic of transmitting the original drawing or the desktop overhead required to run a CAD package. It's a perfect vehicle for conducting geographically dispersed concurrent-engineering sessions, sharing documentation and design information between corporate partners or even communicating between ad agencies and publications over Wide Area Networks and the Internet.

Allegria's JumpStart program allows resellers to become part of the program at a minimal cost, consisting of a $295 Enrollment Fee and a $195 Annual Renewal Fee, and then empowers them with all the materials, training and support required to sell and deliver the entire ForReview family of products.
