ScriptLogic Corporation Announces Distribution Agreement with Alternative Technology
Partnership Offers Expanded Opportunities for Microsoft Resellers
Boca Raton, FL – November 18, 2003 - ScriptLogic Corporation (www.scriptlogic.com), the leader in desktop administration software for Windows-based networks, today announced a strategic partnership with Alternative Technology (AltTech), a leading technology distributor who will market ScriptLogic products to its broad base of value-added resellers.
Under the terms of the agreement, Alternative Technology will distribute ScriptLogic’s Desktop Authority and ScriptLogic Enterprise products. This agreement validates ScriptLogic’s increased commitment to growing its reseller channel and strengthens AltTech’s strategy of building a comprehensive portfolio of network administration and management tools.
“Winner of numerous awards, ScriptLogic distinguishes itself as the leader in point-and-click desktop administration software for Windows-based networks. We are pleased to introduce the company to our network of VARs,” said William R. Botti, president and COO at Alternative Technology. “The strategic value of ScriptLogic products is evident as the Windows enterprise environment continues to grow deeper and more integrated.”
“With AltTech as our partner, ScriptLogic is able to focus its strengths on key programs that actively engage the channel,” said Jason Judge, CEO, ScriptLogic Corporation. “We strive to create a win-win scenario for the channel community and bring added value for our joint customers with aggressive market development programs. Our recently enhanced partner program focuses on reseller sales trainings, technical trainings and collaborative channel marketing initiatives.”
ScriptLogic Enterprise combines the functionality of logon scripting, group policies, and user profile management into an intuitive, point-and-click management console. ScriptLogic makes the complexity and limitations of batch, shell or other complex scripting languages, and the need to create a universal logon script to manage Windows clients a thing of the past. With ScriptLogic software, network administrators can manage Windows’ clients and applications more efficiently, precisely choose settings to apply to computers or users, and deliver the configuration for each user as they login.
Desktop Authority introduces a secure, browser-based remote control component and builds upon the proactive administration foundation shared with the ScriptLogic product. Desktop Authority advances ScriptLogic’s technology to the next level through a feature-rich suite of interactive management tools which allow support staffs to quickly and accurately diagnose and repair problems when they do occur. Because the technology is browser-based, support staff can remotely view running processes, start and stop services and drivers and more via a LAN, dial-up, VPN connection - even a PDA.
