SmartDraw Shakes Up Top Seismic Data Firm with Perfect Project Schedules, Calendars, and Org Charts

San Diego, CA. — August 6, 2007 - SmartDraw.com, creator of SmartDraw®, the world's most popular business graphics software, today announced that Seismic Exchange, Inc. has selected SmartDraw software to create project schedules, organization charts and calendars. SmartDraw will be used by more than 20 employees at the company's headquarters in Houston, Texas.

Seismic Exchange is a full-service 2D and 3D seismic data marketing firm that owns more than 1,745,000 miles of domestic proprietary data. According to Kim Human, IT and 3D Services Manager, the organization was originally using SmartDraw on a small-scale basis to create various business diagrams. The charts and diagrams created in SmartDraw were so well-received that employees in accounting, administration, marketing, and operations requested additional licenses.

"The biggest benefit of using SmartDraw is the ability to create very complex schedules in just minutes," said Human. "We were using Excel® for this purpose and it was painful. We tried Microsoft® Project, and another scheduling package but they were too structured to meet our needs. SmartDraw is very easy to learn and flexible, and the final products look professional. One picture is worth a thousand words."

With SmartDraw, anyone can create professional-quality business graphics such as flowcharts, organizational charts, Gantt charts, mind maps, timelines, floor plans, sales territory maps and more in minutes-no experience or training required. SmartDraw features more than 20,000 symbols and images and hundreds of templates, including SmartTemplates, each loaded with a command-set specific to each type of diagram. In addition, users can export documents to popular programs like PowerPoint®, Microsoft Word®, and PDF in a single click. Each year, more than two million people download and use SmartDraw for their business graphics needs.

SmartDraw offers a variety of licensing options and programs, including a Freedom License that allows an organization or department to install and use SmartDraw on any computer. A free trial is available at www.smartdraw.com and includes both online and telephone technical support.
