Leading Healthcare Solution Receives High Marks for Customer Satisfaction, Commitment to Innovation and Accountability in the KLAS "Top 20: Mid-Year Report Card"

ANDOVER, Mass. - September 5, 2006 - Demonstrating its commitment to delivering exceptional products and unparalleled customer support, Sentillion today announced that it is the only single sign-on (SSO) vendor to be recognized by KLAS™ Enterprises and the first vendor of its kind to be included in the firm's annual and highly respected report on healthcare IT vendors. Sentillion's Vergence® solution, which includes user provisioning, single sign-on and context management products, scored an above average 88.3 percent customer-performance rating in this report.

KLAS Enterprises is a research firm specializing in monitoring and reporting the performance of healthcare IT vendors. The data used in the "Top 20" report is derived from surveys of more than 4,500 hospitals and more than 2,500 clinics, representing nearly 75 percent of U.S. hospitals.

"We are delighted with our performance in the KLAS report because it is an unbiased reflection of the value customers feel they receive when purchasing our technology," said Nancy Ham, president of Sentillion. "We are deeply committed and go to great strides to implement our solutions on-time and within budget, to deliver innovative new products and features and to be the best, most responsive technology partner that we can be. We are glad to see that we are not only meeting, but exceeding, our customers' expectations in these critical areas."

The KLAS scoring is based upon a thorough 40-question survey completed by a customer executive, followed by an in-depth interview of the executive by KLAS. The process is designed to not only provide actual vendor scoring, but also to identify the key questions which should be asked by organizations when evaluating any healthcare IT product. Topics addressed by executives include depth and breadth of functionality and product and service quality and reliability. Also measured are customers' experiences with the vendor's executives and support teams and performance of projects against original cost expectations, including the initial project and ongoing actual internal support costs, which can be overlooked during the selection process. The final survey results are available in the KLAS database.

With over 174,000 caregivers live on Vergence, Sentillion leads the industry with successful deployments of user provisioning, strong authentication, single sign-on, clinical context management and privacy auditing. Sentillion's products are in use across North America including nationally recognized institutions such as Christiana Care Health System, Newton-Wellesley Hospital, Pepin Heart Hospital, Sharp HealthCare, Sisters of Mercy Health System, Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre, University of Pittsburgh Medical Center and all 163 Veterans' Affairs Medical Centers.
