ArcMail Technology Launches New Channel Program
Email archiving and management solutions provider invests in channel programs

Shreveport, LA. - May 22, 2007 - ArcMail Technology, a leading provider of email archiving and management technology, today announced the ArcMail Channel Program, offering resellers worldwide significant growth opportunities and competitive advantage by using the ArcMail Defender Appliance to deliver email archiving capabilities to their customers. As part of its new channel program, ArcMail is offering an aggressive commission structure, discounted pricing levels and comprehensive training and marketing support. The company is investing in lead generation campaigns and awareness programs to drive business to its reseller partners.

ArcMail will deliver marketing tools for the channel to support visibility and lead generation activities and will create materials to assist in educating the market on the importance of email archiving and management. New tools will focus on organizations' need to quickly and efficiently store and retrieve email for legal, compliance and business purposes.

"One of our major initiatives for 2007 is the roll-out of our new channel program", said Ray Bingham, CEO of ArcMail. "We have invested significantly into this program so that we can provide resellers with evaluation units, marketing materials and all the support they need to sell our email archiving solution and services to their customers."

According to a recent article posted on eWEEK.com, only about 14 percent of all corporate e-mail accounts are currently being backed up and archived for future access, but that number is going to shoot up to nearly 70 percent by the year 2011, according to a new storage industry study.

"These statistics suggests that there is a huge opportunity and need in the SMB market for a product with the right balance of features, reliability and cost. We believe this offers a significant revenue generating opportunity for our partners," added Bingham.

In the same report, it was also reported that worldwide revenues for e-mail archiving vendors and service providers are expected to reach almost $1.3 billion in 2007, and grow to more than $6 billion by 2011.

"These statistics show the potential growth for this market category," added Bingham. "Our current channel partners see this market exploding as well. We want to build a tight channel program that helps maximize the potential out there. We know the email archiving and management market provides huge opportunities and we want to make sure the reseller community is aware that we have a program like this."

"ArcMail's channel program is top notch. They provide us with high quality leads and they invest in the tools and sales materials that we need to promote their products", said Mark Raphael of Marketlink Technologies.
