balesio Introduces PPTminimizer for Servers - New Storage Alternative to Pricey Hardware

Reutlingen, Germany, August 06, 2008 --(PR.com)-- PPTminimizer compresses presentations and documents by up to 98% without changing the original file format. Therefore, a special program to decompress or “unzip” files is not needed anymore. The new server version compresses files directly on a server which results in massive savings in storage, transfer and backup costs.

Storage costs:
Costs for material, physical server space, maintenance, support, electricity for power and cooling make hardware solutions considerably more expensive than a software storage solution. PPTminimizer reduces the data volume while maintaining the amount of files on your server.

Transfer costs:
It goes without saying that smaller files account for less transfer costs. Many small- and medium sized enterprises (SMEs) have heavy transfer costs ranging from 5.000 to 25.000 USD/month, especially when running on virtual private networks (VPN) or when sending a lot of data to mobile devices.

Backup costs:
PPTminimizer reducing data volume while maintaining the amount of files on a server drastically shortens backup times and saves costs. The time window IT administrators have to perform a daily data backup is often too small to perform a full backup of all relevant data. Customers save as much as 5 hours in backup time. Extending storage space with new hardware increases data volume, and actually has a negative impact on backup costs and times.

PPTminimizer Enterprise for Servers is compatible with Vista, the latest MS Office version. This program can be fully integrated into Outlook, Word, PowerPoint and Windows Explorer.

PPTminimizer is available for USD 1.999 per server (regardless of CPUs).

Multi-user prices are available, educational and government agency discounts available on request.
