ATLANTA | SEPTEMBER 28, 2004 | Tridia Corporation (www.tridia.com), a global provider of secure, Internet--ready, cross-platform, connectivity software for remote administration, support, and collaboration announced today that Tridia iTivity(TM) is a SOHO HIT" for Noracom, a VAR that specializes in small office/home office (SOHO) support. Tridia iTivity is a secure, cross-platform, remote-support solution for organizations that need to safely support, sell, and collaborate over the Internet. With iTivity, Tridia targets administrators that presently use or plan to use subscription-based Web connectivity tools.

With the increasing cost of travel in time and fuel, Noracom sought a way to provide remote support and administration to the various desktops in its client base. My clients have a variety of platforms and network configurations," says Carolyn Dawdy, founder of Noracom. They are not large corporations and do not have in-house technical support. iTivity--VAR Edition has all the features I was looking for, without all the management overhead."

We designed Tridia iTivity so that administrators wont have to reconfigure routers or go through a lengthy installation process," says Vince Frese, CEO and president of Tridia Corporation. Noracom is a prime example of how versatile Tridia iTivity is. It is a dynamic Internet tool thats powerful and secure enough for single incidents and scheduled maintenance of complete infrastructures."

Noracom is already realizing great value from its implementation of Tridia iTivity. During a secure remote support session using Tridia iTivity, Dawdy opened an IE window on a local computer to research an error message. When I found a page with the answer, I was able to copy the address bar and paste it into the remote computer's IE address bar," says Dawdy. With pcAnywhere, I had to copy it to the local clipboard and hope that we could copy and paste a solution between the remote and local computers. This is REAL COOL, because it cuts out multiple steps and puts the fix right in front of the user."

Tridia iTivity is a self-hosted solution that eliminates the monthly subscription fees of competing services. Not only is this less expensive, but it also increases privacy. iTivity eliminates the need for VPNs which can be messy, unsecured, and time consuming to implement.

Tridia iTivity leverages Tridia's long history of technical innovation and customer success to provide an innovative, yet affordable, Internet-based collaboration and support platform. It is from the Tridia iTivity platform that companies can put forth a standardized connectivity solution that meets their needs today, and for some time to come.
