EMERYVILLE, Calif.--(Business Wire)--
Ravenflow, the leader in Business Requirements Definition, today announced the
standalone release of RAVEN Express, the industry`s first requirements
definition product that is integrated directly into Microsoft Word. Priced under
$500, this new version of RAVEN Express will offer the highest-value and lowest
price entry-point in the requirements definition marketplace.

RAVEN Express offers business analysts who write requirements documents and
describe business processes in Microsoft Word the ability to easily add visual
diagrams that help find missing requirements without leaving the familiar Word
environment. Unlike other requirements tools, RAVEN Express does not require the
business analyst to learn a new application or graphical modeling tool. By
leveraging the power of RAVEN directly within Microsoft Word, analysts are able
to communicate more clearly with stakeholders and subject matter experts,
resulting in accelerated time to specification signoff, increased customer
satisfaction, decreased project costs and better project outcomes.

"Our customers and prospects have been asking us to provide a lower cost, entry
level solution and Ravenflow responded. RAVEN Express will demonstrate an
immediate ROI to business analysts who can then justify upgrading to RAVEN
Professional and our RAVEN Collaboration Space for larger, more complex projects
to their management," said Susan Boers, president and CEO of Ravenflow. "Not
only does RAVEN help cut costs by helping users find missing requirements to
deliver applications faster, but now RAVEN Express is the only requirements
definition product on the market today that provides immediate improvement for
Word users. The entry level price is extremely attractive to new users and
organizations looking to transform their requirements process."
