Leading open source collaboration software provider recognized by partners for high ROI, innovative product
TARRYTOWN, NY, November 8, 2006 – Open-Xchange Inc. (www.open-xchange.com), the leading
provider of open source collaboration software, announced today that it
has been named to CRN’s Emerging Vendors Directory, a list of 75 top
companies recognized for bringing their partners high margins by
providing cutting-edge, low-cost, easy-to-use alternatives to standard
industry solutions.
“Open-Xchange is thankful to all of its partners for voting to
include Open-Xchange in CRN’s Emerging Vendors Directory,” said Dan
Kusnetzky, EVP Marketing Strategy at Open-Xchange. “Open-Xchange is
tightly focused on lowering the total cost of ownership of messaging
and collaboration software. As the recent CRN survey demonstrates, open
source products like our Open-Xchange Server 5 can compete with, and
even undercut, offerings by the software giants.”
“We have been working with the Open-Xchange products for the past
year and have had great success with them. Open-Xchange plus the other
software products within our portfolio has enhanced our ability to
provide robust solutions to all our customers,” said Frank Basanta,
Director of Technology at System Solutions, Inc. “Systems Solutions and
Open-Xchange have been able to work together to address the
collaborative needs of customers in financial services, healthcare and
insurance.”
According to CRN, vendors were either nominated to the Emerging
Vendors Directory by solution-provider partners or recommended in the
CRN Emerging Vendors Survey. The CRN editorial team then compiled the
Directory based on conversations with nominating partners and
additional information provided by candidate companies.
