Egenera Reports Record Software Sales Quarter

Unified Computing Software Vendor Posts Record Results


MARLBOROUGH, MA--(Marketwire - October 26, 2010) -  Egenera Inc. reported its third consecutive profitable quarter this year. The results included record sales of Egenera PAN Manager® Software, the company's multi-platform, converged infrastructure software.

"Our software strategy is paying off. We had record sales of PAN Manager Software on Dell blades, and that was even before we added support for Fujitsu blade servers earlier in October," said Pete Manca, CEO of Egenera. "You wouldn't buy a single-platform hypervisor, so why buy single-platform unified computing products? With our open approach, we've successfully appealed to enterprises and resellers alike."

On Dell platforms alone, Egenera has posted recent customers such as Brown Shoe, eLynx, INTEC and Lamar Advertising, as well as a half-dozen major government and defense customers. The company expects to ship PAN Manager Software on Fujitsu's x86 blade server platform later this year.

Customers who are turning to Egenera's unified computing solution have mixed physical and virtual server environments, are seeking to simplify physical infrastructure and operations, drive costs down, and need to provide business-critical high availability (HA) and/or disaster recovery (DR).
