By Exclusive Networks Africa
Johannesburg, 03 Oct 2006

Networks Unlimited has been appointed as a value-added distributor in Sub-Saharan Africa for Webroot Software Inc, a privately held company based in Boulder, Colorado, effective 1 October 2006.

Networks Unlimited was established in 1994, focusing on the delivery of tangible results through network management, productivity and security solutions.

Networks Unlimited`s core values of service, quality and commitment underpin its focus in value-added distribution with national representation by a select group of partners and resellers.

With offices in both Cape Town and Johannesburg, Networks Unlimited can ensure a global approach to service delivery for both the southern African and Sub-Saharan regions.

Networks Unlimited is constantly expanding its product offering and represents the following products as distributor in southern Africa: Danware`s NetOp Products, including NetOp School and NetOp Remote Control; SurfControl`s Enterprise Protection Suite, PGP Encryption software, IronPort`s world-leading e-mail security products, MIMESweeper and Castlerock.

Webroot Software Inc was founded in 1997 and is run by a strong executive management team with several years of experience at leading security companies. Providing Internet security solutions that protect personal information and corporate assets from online and internal threats is not only what it strives for, but it is part of its mission statement which it believes in very strongly.

As Kevin Roberts, EMEA Managing Director for Webroot says: "...the two organisations fully complement each other and I am delighted with the appointment of Networks Unlimited as Webroot`s sole value-added distributor for South Africa and Sub-Sahara."

He is further quoted as saying that he looks forward to continued growth in the region through the distribution of SSE via Networks Unlimited`s very talented and highly motivated channel partners. Roberts went on to say that working with a partner you can trust, who can represent Webroot professionally and "...really drive our penetration in to SME as well as the larger Fortune 100 Enterprise accounts in the region is vital to our expansion plans. With Networks Unlimited and Webroot we have a best-of-breed anti-spyware solution and an excellent distribution partner that will make us formidable players in the region."

"Adding the Webroot leading anti-spyware program, Spy Sweeper, to the Networks Unlimited range of best-of-breed products, shows that Networks Unlimited is constantly striving to provide solutions and products in the areas where efficient networking communications is the key to success," adds Craig Copeland, Director for Networks Unlimited.
