Day Software Named to EContent 100

Day featured as a company that matters most in the digital content industry

Basel, Switzerland and Irvine, California - November 16, 2007

Day Software (SWX: DAYN, OTC: DYIHY), a leading provider of global content management and content infrastructure software, has been named to EContent magazine's 2007 EContent 100 list of companies that matter most in the digital content industry.

The EContent 100 is compiled by the magazine’s editorial staff, its valued contributing editors and colleagues from its publisher, Information Today, Inc. Judges recognized Day for its continued leadership in technology and innovation in content management, including its work with intranets and portals. The list spotlights companies that provide valuable offerings for customers seeking digital content solutions, such as those providing content management, content delivery, digital rights management and knowledge management.

This year, Day released new digital asset management and collaboration solutions, supporting wikis, blogs and other new-media technologies. Day’s flagship product, Communiqué, was the first native JCR (JSR 170) standard-compliant enterprise content management (ECM) suite. Communiqué revolutionizes content management by decoupling the content management application from the underlying repository.

Applications that leverage the industry-standard API can run on any JSR 170-compliant repository. This represents a revolutionary shift in the content management industry. Previously, companies found their content locked away in proprietary, legacy repositories. This new standard, driven by Day, focuses on the customer by allowing access to their most valuable digital information, no matter where it resides. Other companies in support of the standard include FileNet, IBM, Oracle and SAP.

The EContent 100 list is available in the December print issue of the magazine and online at www.econtentmag.com.

"EContent is an influential, informative publication and Day is proud to be considered one of the top 100 companies deserving recognition," said Michael Moppert, CEO and chairman, Day Software. "This honor, along with the fact that Day has made this list previously, reinforces our leadership position in the content management market, as well as our commitment to providing our blue-chip customers with innovative, standards-based solutions to help them thrive in a competitive enterprise environment."
