DataCore SANmelody Software Earns CRN's "Test Center Recommended" Endorsement

Technical Merit and Robust Support Program Deliver Immense Value for Channel

FT. LAUDERDALE, Fla. (July 7, 2004) — DataCore Software's SANmelody™ Disk Server Software has earned CRN's highly coveted "Test Center Recommended" endorsement.

SANmelody received 4 of 5 stars for both the technical and channel categories, based on the revolutionary nature of the offering and the disk server software's numerous sales opportunities for solution providers. The software is uniquely positioned to support the fast-growing small and medium-sized market for robust solutions, enabling these organizations to quickly expand server capacity, without making new investments in expensive hardware. SANmelody's ability to enhance mixed technology environments and improve the return on existing investments gives channel partners new opportunities to strengthen customer satisfaction and improve profitability.

"Our readers expect that we apply extremely rigorous standards in recommending products to them," said Vincent Randazzese, assistant technical editor, CRN Test Center of Manhasset, N.Y.-based CRN. "DataCore's SANmelody offering meets our requirements for value and opportunity with a solution that addressed a widely unmet need in the market today: maximizing the utilization of server disk capacity -- and power."

In addition to proven technology, DataCore's channel program reflects the company's commitment to helping its reseller partners succeed. The SANvantage^SM channel program includes sales and technical support, marketing literature, a Not For Resale software copy, a quarterly newsletter and secure access to a dedicated partner Website.

"The SANmelody label provides a multitude of ways for our business partners to differentiate their storage solutions," said Carlos Carreras, vice president of sales for DataCore. "As the SMB market continues to heat up, this ability to quickly and cost-effectively roll out customized solutions for many different circumstances will become a significant revenue opportunity for the channel, and we are very excited to be among the first-to-market with an offering that capitalizes on that new model."
