RES Software Signs $3.5 Million Deal with Fortune 20 Company

April 16, 2012 - PRLog -- Frimley, UK –  16th April 2012 — RES Software, the proven leader in dynamic desktop solutions, today announced a powerful start to 2012 highlighted by several key milestones, including:

•   Strategic deal worth $3.5 million with a Fortune 20 company
•   60 percent rate of growth in Europe Year-over-Year
•   80 percent rate of growth in the US Year-over-Year
•   Signed the largest RES Software deals in the US and Germany

RES Software has continued to increase its staffing, especially in its highest growth regions of the US and the United Kingdom. New partners have been signed, including a new distributorship with Ingram Micro, and new products have been announced –  most notably RES HyperDrive, which provides a secure way to deliver “follow me data” and file sharing with the enterprise-class security of on-premises technology. This new product expands the RES Software footprint to mobile devices and additional platforms including Apple iOS.

RES Software also reports customer renewal rates above 95 percent, achievement of the latest Citrix-Ready certifications for its new RES Automation Manager 2012 release, and the just announced achievement of Microsoft SAM (Software Asset Management) certification. “It’s a great time to be at RES Software – and we’re especially happy that our customers agree with that,” said Klaus Besier, CEO of RES Software. “We will continue the course of developing enterprise solutions that simplify IT, and integrating with best-of-breed solutions to provide the flexibility, versatility and security that our customers want. We’re looking forward to what lies ahead.”

“The market’s need for what RES Software provides is real, and is growing at a rapid pace,” continues Mr. Besier. “The trends that are driving our growth are massive and far reaching. They include the consumerisation of IT, the hybridisation of desktop infrastructures and the movement to public and private clouds, all resulting in the need for IT to save time and money with IT service automation. IT professionals have wanted an easier way to manage technologies for years; but now, with an accelerating pace of change and increasing complexity, that desire has become a necessity. Traditional desktop management approaches need to evolve and RES Software is here with the right solutions.”

The need for RES Software technologies was validated by Microsoft’s recent announcement of User Experience Virtualisation – a future development that closes a gap in Microsoft technology. RES has offered a similar solution with its RES Workspace Manager Express product, available as a free download from the RES Software website, for over a year to help IT professionals close this gap. “We will certainly integrate our software with the Microsoft User Experience Virtualisation technology once it’s available,” said Bob Janssen, Co-founder and CTO of RES Software. “This action from Microsoft underscores the need for a simpler approach to managing IT challenges – a need RES Software is dedicated to filling with solutions that manage, secure and automate our customer’s IT environments.”
