ALISO VIEJO, Calif., March 30, 2005 -- DATAllegro, supplier of the premier price/performance data warehouse appliance, today announced the launch of BIEN (Business Intelligence Experts Network). BIEN comprises a select group of well-respected data warehouse industry leaders brought together by DATAllegro to offer its customers independent, high-quality data warehouse expertise.

In addition to helping companies design, build and manage thriving data warehouses, BIEN will also relay customer needs to DATAllegro. Bringing together such a broad range of independent expertise, BIEN reflects DATAllegro's commitment to its customers' success and is viewed by the company as an integral part of its offering.

BIEN founding members include:

-- Jill Dyche & Evan Levy, Baseline Consulting

-- Colin White, BI Research

-- Richard Hackathorn, Bolder Technology

-- Dan Merriman, Chapin Consulting Group Inc.

-- Joyce Norris-Montanari, DBTech Solutions

-- John Ladley, KI Solutions

-- Sid Adelman, Sid Adelman & Associates

-- William McKnight, McKnight Associates Inc.

-- Richard Winter, Wintercorp

"DATAllegro's BIEN program will help the company keep its ear to the ground for evolving business needs and industry trends," said Jill Dyche of Baseline Consulting. "Many vendors assemble industry advisory teams haphazardly and reactively. DATAllegro should be commended for nimbly collecting the best and the brightest thought leaders to illuminate its journey toward market leadership."

"DATAllegro has assembled a highly collaborative group of the most recognized and credentialed DW and BI minds and I am just excited to be a part of BIEN," said William McKnight of McKnight Associates. "DW and BI continue to maintain a growing sense of interest in the marketplace and for good reason - bottom-line business benefit from the most recognized source of modern value - company data. With BIEN and their offering, DATAllegro is positioning themselves to command a leadership position in the industry for years to come."

"BIEN is central to DATAllegro's strategy of providing our customers with the highest quality product, support and resources," said Kim Stanick, VP Product Marketing at DATAllegro. "We're honored to have close affiliation with these long-standing industry experts. As a young company, the ability to tap the extensive knowledge of such gurus is a wonderful and rare opportunity."

BIEN collectively represents hundreds of years of experience, covering the gamut of data warehouse and business intelligence skills. As a group, BIEN members can provide assistance on every aspect of data warehousing such as assessment, design, implementation, optimization, support, training, and even measurement and accountability.

"BIEN members greatly enhance DATAllegro's ability to ensure our customers' success. The generosity shown through their willingness to collaborate and share knowledge is a great example of their commitment to and investment in the data warehouse community," added Stanick.
