Alternative Technology Signs Exclusive Distribution Agreement
Denver, Colorado/Seattle, Washington, November 1, 2002 — Alternative Technology, Inc and LINQware Inc. announced an exclusive distribution agreement for LINQware’s Collabrix™ product line in North America.
In today’s business environment the need for workers to collaborate remotely is constantly growing. The Collabrix Co-Pilot features helps facilitate this process by allowing users to spontaneously share applications, while they actively communicate using its enterprise instant messaging system.
"Security is the number one concern we hear from our customers and partners," stated Tod Turner, LINQware CEO. "Today management and IT administrators are concerned about the lack of security associated with both public and private communication systems. Collabrix provides IT with control plus the ability to implement and enforce corporate communication standards. Collabrix offers them a secure, rapidly deployable solution."
"We are pleased to add the Collabrix product line to our current product offerings and the value it will bring to our VARs," said William R. Botti, Alternative Technology President and COO. "As the exclusive distributor, we have been fully trained on the product line so that we can help our VARs introduction and implementation of Collabrix into the marketplace."
Collabrix is the first secure, corporate collaboration system designed specifically for the rapidly growing, secure business communication market. Its’ unique collaboration and communication capabilities fit intuitively and "naturally" into existing workflows, business relationships and organizations, can be implemented without disrupting a customer’s established business practices, leverage investment in MetaFrame and other IT infrastructure, and make adoption and use seamless and scalable with low risk trial.
