NetWrix Corporation Offering Competitive Upgrade for All Quest and NetPro Customers

Promotion to Benefit Customers of Competing Companies Seeking Alternative Cost-Saving Options With a Proven Solutions Vendor


PARAMUS, NJ--(Marketwire - November 18, 2008) - NetWrix Corporation, a provider of systems management and compliance solutions for Active Directory and virtual environments, today announced that it is offering competitive upgrade promotions on its entire lineup of products for all Quest Software and NetPro customers and prospects. The special offer starts immediately and will be available through December 31, 2009.

NetWrix's decision to offer customers of competing companies this unique cost-saving opportunity stems from NetWrix's clear understanding that having effective alternative solutions and options in place during any transitional acquisition and/or merger is in the customers' best interest. This offering not only promotes a fair and competitive market, but also helps to ease customers' doubts about the recent acquisition of NetPro by Quest Software with regard to the future of their IT investments. Having alternative vendors with similar offerings means improved products, better customer service, and fair prices, all of which benefit the entire IT community.

"This decision will allow a significant number of customers to benefit from a proven number of solutions that enhance the overall effectiveness of IT operations and address the critical issues surrounding security and compliance in today's IT environments," said NetWrix President and CEO, Michael Fimin. "Most organizations consider a number of options before choosing a solution. We are pleased to be able to provide such options, and we sincerely hope that customers will take advantage of these special savings that will ultimately help in their fight to increase business effectiveness, save more jobs, and survive in today's weak economy."

Under the terms of the promotion, organizations will have an opportunity to upgrade to any NetWrix product from a similar Quest or NetPro solution and receive full licensing at a price that is guaranteed to cost the same as, or usually much less than, the annual software maintenance fees with Quest. NetWrix's special offer includes support and maintenance for a year at no cost and requires no costly professional services to get started. The savings are especially significant, considering that NetWrix's 20% maintenance fees for following years are based on previously paid license prices that are substantially lower than those of competitors. NetWrix also offers its customers the option of purchasing annual maintenance in advance at even further savings -- 15% for the second year and 10% for the 3rd year.

The offer applies not only to existing customers, but also to everyone still considering solutions from Quest Software and/or its affiliates.
