Somerset, N.J., April 18, 2001
Netilla(sm) Networks, Inc., the networking service company that supplies
secure Web access to office applications, today announced that two national
software solution providers, Computer Control Corporation, based in
Hartford, Conn., and StarCare Systems, Inc., based in Alexandria, Va.,
have been selected to join the company's network of certified integrators.
These providers, along with value-added resellers, systems integrators,
independent software vendors (ISVs) and other solution providers, resell
and support Netilla Virtual Office(sm) service, a subscription-based
service that allows
a business user at an off-site work location to use a Web browser as
a secure "extension cord" to shared software applications,
files, and e-mail residing on an office network.
Besides selling Netilla Virtual Office service and using it to provide
customer support, these companies also are using the service to provide
their own employees with remote access, explained Glenn Fitzgerald,
Netilla Networks' vice president of Sales. Fitzgerald added that Computer
Control and StarCare are focused on customer relationship management
(CRM) and sales force automation (SFA) applications, and said, "We
welcome reseller relationships with software solution providers and
ISVs who need a simple, affordable Web-based remote access solution
to complement their portfolios."
"By Web-enabling the software systems we sell and by providing
remote access to office networks, Netilla Virtual Office service allows
us to solve a pervasive synchronization problem with our software products
while eliminating the need for customers to distribute software upgrades
to their employees," said Computer Control President Joel Scott.
He added, "The service also provides our company with a strong
recurring revenue stream as well as a tool we use ourselves to give
our widely-dispersed sales and technical team access our server-based
contact management system."
StarCare President Joseph Cameron said, "Netilla Virtual Office
service rounds out the functionality and flexibility of the CRM and
SFA products we provide to our customers. Even more valuable is that
it allows them to have 'virtual' offices at a minimal cost. This service
lets us offer a more complete solution at a competitive price, and,
by using the Netilla Virtual Office service to support customers who
have the service, we strengthen our own customer relationships.
