Press Release Summary: Software pioneer Orbis has gone global.

Press Release Body: The Poole-based company is experiencing massive success in
Belgium, the Netherlands, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa and the USA.

Their software takes away the legwork of manual processes by automating everyday
business tasks. With packages such as TaskCentre in place computers take over the
monitoring of accounts and services and action the automatic release of information
through email, text or letters.

"Within the past year Orbis has gone global on a really big scale. We've achieved
50 per cent growth this year," said Matt Lidster, sales director of Orbis.

He added: "We're particularly proud of our success in the States. It's very hard for
a UK company to go into the US and for a local company such as Orbis with just 18
employees it's a real achievement."

TaskCentre was the result of a research and development project by Orbis that began
in 1997. Staff put the company's overseas success down to finding good distributors
and resellers to take the product on. They now have 29 such distributors in the USA.

Paul Cannon, president of Fisher Technology, the firm overseeing Orbis' success in
the USA, explained why TaskCentre is proving so popular: "It's a good strong product
which meets a need within consumer relationship and financial management.

"The majority of business people in the States are aware of a need to automate
things to free up their time to focus on sales and customer service. TaskCentre
meets that niche."

The firm's USA success centres around Florida and the East Coast but moves are afoot
to expand its reach further.
