New ConceptDraw Office Release From CS Odessa Takes an Innovative Approach to Managing and Representing Information Within Organizations

Odessa, Ukraine, May 6, 2008 - CS Odessa announces the upcoming release of ConceptDraw Office, scheduled for general availability in mid-June 2008. The brand new business productivity software suite targeted at assisting knowledge workers and project managers in successfully completing extensive sets of tasks in any businesses of any size. ConceptDraw Office addresses the needs of modern managers in a single software solution by covering all aspects of project management including: creativity, productivity, team management, project planning, information management, tracking, resource allocation, and reporting results to stockholders and executives.

The key innovation behind ConceptDraw Office is that for any particular project scenario there is an appropriate visual representation for the respective information. Sample usage scenarios include brainstorming project ideas using a whiteboard-like view, organizing results into highly informative mind maps, and transforming data into detailed project plans and Gantt charts.

ConceptDraw Office reflects the entire collective CS Odessa expertise in developing leading market business applications, data visualization technologies and project management tools. With CS Odessa's revolutionary InGyre Technology, the business productivity applications ConceptDraw MINDMAP, ConceptDraw PROJECT, and ConceptDraw PRO are securely and seamlessly integrated into a single software solution. Depending on the tasks that need to be resolved at a particular moment, the three different applications within the suite can be used while all project data is kept consistent.

The InGyre Technology introduces the capability to work with a single data file when using CS Odessa's project management tool ConceptDraw PROJECT, along with visual mapping software ConceptDraw MINDMAP. Depending on the tasks that need to be resolved, users can decide which application within the suite is most appropriate to accomplish their needs. Any changes to project data in one application are automatically integrated in the others.

The simple creation of visual documentation reflecting actual work progress is a major task that InGyre Technology supports. It easily assists in the creation of visual dashboards and reports that represent key indicators of work progress from either project files or a set of selected tasks. InGyre Technology enables to transform task outlines into professional looking WBS charts. All these documents are editable with ConceptDraw PRO.

Gregory Zhukov, Chief Executive Officer of CS Odessa states, "Never before has a company integrated three visual software solutions into one suite. We place workplace capability into the hands of knowledge workers. We have broken down many of the barriers of true productivity. ConceptDraw Office is all about accomplishing goals and not accepting technical barriers that exist within many other solutions in the market. We have raised the bar, changed the workplace dynamic, and designed our products to utilize the way people think, work, communicate and most importantly:achieve. It's all about accomplishment rather than workarounds that get in the way of real productivity. ConceptDraw Office is for those who want to do."
