CisionPoint Public Relations Management Software to Provide Premium Content
Monitoring from LexisNexis

Cision, the leading provider of media research, distribution, monitoring and
analysis services to the public relations industry and other communicators, and
LexisNexis®, a leading global provider of content-enabled workflow solutions,
today announced a strategic alliance that will provide targeted domestic and
international news content from LexisNexis to Cision clients.

Scheduled for release later this year, the award-winning CisionPoint PR software
platform will give Cision customers worldwide access to an extensive archive of
LexisNexis content to monitor and analyze their news coverage. Cision's clients
will be able to search the LexisNexis content database, receive alerts as new
content is posted, and quickly understand what's being said about their
organization, brands and competitors or virtually any topic across the globe
through CisionPoint's online language translation tool.   

“This alliance brings public relations professionals the best of both worlds,
providing them with a more efficient end-to-end solution”, says Ethan Eisner,
vice president of Corporate Markets at LexisNexis. “It will enable LexisNexis
and Cision to strengthen our collective position as content-enabled workflow
providers in the public relations space.”

“This is a perfect match between two industry leaders”, says Hans Gieskes,
President and Chief Executive Officer of Cision and former CEO of the LexisNexis
Group. “Integrating best-in-class LexisNexis content with CisionPoint will
deliver tremendous additional value to our customers, whose competitive edge
relies upon their access to the best and most up-to-date media information.”

Through the CisionPoint dashboard, clients will be able to search the LexisNexis
content database for recent articles written by a specific journalist. They can
also access outlet-related information such as audience impressions and market
data.  

The Cision and LexisNexis alliance will augment existing monitoring capabilities
within CisionPoint, an integrated, on-demand services platform that supports
public relations professionals across the four phases of the communications
cycle - plan, connect, monitor and analyze. Cision currently monitors millions
of print publications, television and radio programs, websites and blogs in
North America, and covers 200 additional countries and territories through its
International Monitoring service.
