Onyx Named One of Washington State's Fastest Growing Companies in Deloitte & Touche Technology Fast 50 Program
Strong Growth Attributed to Customer Satisfaction and Flexibility of the Onyx Platform

BELLEVUE, Wash. - Onyx® Software Corporation (NASDAQ: ONXS), worldwide leader in successful customer relationship management (CRM), has been named to Deloitte & Touche's prestigious Technology Fast 50 Program for Washington State, a ranking of the 50 fastest growing technology companies in the area by Deloitte & Touche LLP, one of the nation's leading professional services firms. Rankings are based on the percentage of growth in fiscal year revenues over five years, from 1998-2002.

Onyx Software's CEO Brent Frei credits visionary technology and a focus on customer success with the company's 93% revenue growth from 1998-2002. He said "Even despite the difficult economic environment and decline in IT spending since 2000, Onyx has continued to remain strong because our customer's needs are at the core of everything we do - from the way we work with clients to achieve their goals to the flexibility of the Onyx platform."

Onyx's increase in revenues of 93 percent from 1998 to 2002 resulted in a 42 ranking overall in the Fast 50 for Washington. The average increase in revenues among companies who made the Fast 50 for this region was 1,700 percent.

To qualify for the Technology Fast 50, companies must have had operating revenues of at least $50,000 in 1998 and $1,000,000 in 2002, must be public or private companies headquartered in North America, and be a "technology company" defined as owning proprietary technology that contributes to a significant portion of the company's operating revenues (using other companies' technology in a unique way does not qualify); and/or devoting a significant proportion of revenues to research and development of technology.

Winners of the 20 regional Technology Fast 50 programs in the United States and Canada are automatically entered in the Deloitte & Touche Technology Fast 500 program, which ranks North America's top 500 fastest growing technology companies.
