DELL Acquisition Extends Winzero’s Server Migration Market Share

“Winzero server migration software significantly reduces the time and costs of deploying new Dell Servers”

Ottawa, ON, Feb 09, 2008 – With the recent Dell – ASAP Software acquisition, Winzero Technologies will extend its server migration market share by reducing the time to benefit of new Dell Server deployments. The acquisition of Winzero’s preferred Reseller - ASAP Software will strengthen Winzero's existing server migration software business by integrating Dells complementary expertise in server hardware.

“Recognizing the strategic synergies between Winzero and Dell ASAP, we embarked on a beneficial, market expansion opportunity,” said Akos Sandor, vice president of Microsoft Solutions for Winzero Technologies. “Our goal is to provide a cost-effective alternative to traditional file server migration products, which have been entrenched in the market for 10-years. The combined solution features the most innovative server migration technologies at an aggressive/attractive price point.”

“We are excited to collaborate with Dell ASAP and believe this alliance is truly a win-win for all parties involved,” said JP Hann, marketing director for Winzero. “Our server migration solutions are designed to scale to the tremendous data growth expected in our customer’s data centers. The ability to migrate existing Microsoft Windows based server data efficiently to new Dell server platforms is an ideal fit for our software.”

In addition to broadening Winzero’s presence in server migration software space, the acquisition extends Winzero’s indirect resellers model that forms Winzero’s primary route to market. With Dell ASAP’s substantial presence in markets around the world, Winzero looks to benefit its server migration software from this strong relationship.

“We are excited about becoming part of Dell ASAP releationship as this will help us penetrate further into existing markets and give us the resources and expertise to expand into new markets,” said Sam Alderson, Director of sales at Winzero. “We’ve been successful in building a strong reputation in the server migration software market for Windows-based servers, now we’re looking forward to capitalizing on this momentum and taking our success to the next level.”
