Sand Technology Featured in Andersen-Sponsored Project

Sand Technology Inc announces that its Nucleus Exploration suite of products is featured in a Web-based study sponsored by Andersen Consulting. The project, performed by Montgomery Research, highlights Sand Technology's Nucleus products as part of a select group of solutions in the fast-exploding Customer Relationship Management (CRM) arena.

CRM systems enable enterprises to understand all aspects of their relationships with their customers, from buying patterns to credit worthiness, thereby optimizing marketing approaches and return on investment. Nucleus's unique data storage approach allows for rapid implementation of such systems and provides for extensive analytic capability of customer-related information at a much higher speed and a fraction of the resource costs of traditional methods.

The CRM project, entitled "Defying the Limits -- Reaching New Heights in Customer Relationship Management" is available from Montgomery Research in hard copy publication or via the Web at: www.crmproject.com/crm/solutions.html.
