PARAGON CONCEPTS' NISUS™ VOTED BEST MACINTOSH WORD PROCESSOR
LONDON--November 1, 1989--The editors of MacUser U.K. today announced that
Nisus™, developed and published by San Diego's Paragon Concepts, Inc., has
taken top honors in the word processing division. Voted "Best Word Processor,"
Nisus outdistanced contenders like Microsoft® Word 4.0 and Write Now™, both
products of software companies much larger than Paragon Concepts.
According to Paragon president Jerzy Lewak, the award comes at a very good
time. "We're in the midst of a significant international market expansion, so
it's gratifying to see the recognition that Nisus deserves. I'm pleased that
MacUser was able to evaluate the entries objectively and take a stand for
quality. Nisus, especially version 2.0, demonstrates our commitment to produce
a word processor that meets the needs of end users—now people have a product
they like instead of one they use because they recognize the brand name."
Nisus is most often singled out for its extensive search and replace
capability, unlimited undos and integrated graphics. Marketed worldwide in
English, it is also available in Korean and will soon be introduced in French,
German and Dutch, Lewak said. He added that "it's full steam ahead" at Paragon
for further refinements and new features. Although no release date has been
scheduled, work on a 1990 Nisus upgrade is underway.
The 1989 awards (gold statuettes newly-commissioned by MacUser) were presented
at a dinner ceremony in London marking the beginning of the MacUser U.K. show
at Olympia. Judges included industry professionals and writers, and the MacUser
editorial staff. This year's event is the third annual competition.
