Intelligent Compression Technologies, Inc. (ICT) announced today the release of AcceleNet 3.0 Enterprise support for Lotus Notes and Citrix applications. This new feature set of ICT’s 3.0 software squarely targets the large installed base of enterprise Lotus Notes and Citrix users.
In addition to supporting industry standard Windows based application acceleration, AcceleNet now provides all branch offices, telecommuters, and mobile users with the industry's most comprehensive feature set and scaleable solution for Lotus Notes application acceleration and Citrix network optimization. CIOs and IT managers using AcceleNet 3.0 have been asking for Lotus Notes and Citrix support as a complement to the release of innovative AcceleNet 3.0 Enterprise earlier this year. This new feature release broadens AcceleNet’s software suite to now include support for:
- CIFS based File Shares
- Outlook/Exchange
- Web Browsing
- Lotus Notes
- Citrix
With this new dual feature release ICT expands its market to support these two mission-critical applications and provides the customer with the most comprehensive all software suite of WAN acceleration in the industry. This uncompromising efficiency and advanced capabilities are the result of field hardened:
- Application Accelerators: for high speed web applications, file shares, and Exchange performance running as fast as being on the LAN.
- Compression Engines: Dramatically reducing bandwidth utilization via format-specific and delta compression techniques.
- Network Optimizations: New technology that solves the unique challenges in remotely accessing the enterprise via WAN, wireless, satellite, WiMax or other problematic links.
In addition to industry-leading performance, AcceleNet reduces the total cost of ownership with a single vendor approach, truly plug-and-play installation, and offers a fully distributed client/server architecture that does not require reconfiguration when the network is modified or sparing of expensive hardware. The client component is 100% transparent, upgrades are software downloads, and offers a robustness proven in worldwide deployment to millions of end users by some of the world's largest service providers, enterprises and wireless carriers. When speed of deployment means speed of benefit to your end users, AcceleNet requires only seconds to download and create significant benefit vs. hardware approaches that may take many months to fully roll out.
“AcceleNet 3.0 Enterprise support for Lotus Notes and Citrix is an important enhancement to our product.” stated Mark Bankes, VP of Sales and Business Development for ICT, “Both features when combined with our current Windows offering make up an unbeatable combination that customers have been asking for and are already deployed in production networks today. This new combination of features is enabling new customers and allowing us to take business from our competitors based on customer driven bake-offs.”
For the first time a single solution for Windows based application acceleration can be extended to include additional mission critical applications like Outlook, Lotus Notes and Citrix across the entire enterprise range of small, medium, and large branch offices, as well as the individual home office and mobile/wireless users in the field. By providing a complete, flexible end-to-end acceleration solution to these rapidly expanding market segments Lotus Notes users will get a substantial speed up and Citrix users will additionally benefit from a more reliable high speed transport.
ICT customers are demanding mobility, more often than not these branch office, home office, and mobile users in the field are all the same user and that’s where AcceleNet offers the most value. By eliminating the need for expensive “box” solutions in support of these increasingly mobile users, AcceleNet offers CIOs and IT managers the most cost efficient and flexible WAN acceleration solution not just for the office last mile, but for every last mile.
