ZANTAZ EAS Takes Top Honors at 'Deal or No Deal' Pitch Competition
PLEASANTON, Calif. - Oct. 25, 2006 - ZANTAZ, Inc., the global leader in content archiving and electronic discovery solutions, took first place in a no-holds-barred shoot-out among storage technology companies in a dramatic final showpiece on October 19th at Storage Expo UK 2006.
The highly competitive event featured seven storage industry vendors who each presented a two-minute case regarding their product as a compelling solution to a challenging business issue or problem. The competitors were then questioned by a panel comprised of storage market analysts, a venture capitalist and storage industry experts. Questioning concentrated on specific industry need, product stability, and technology innovation.
The ZANTAZ Enterprise Archive Solution (EAS) came out on top based on two distinct criteria: the size and importance of the issues regarding archiving, knowledge management and disclosure of email and electronic content; and the quality, flexibility and functionality of the product ZANTAZ has developed to overcome these issues. The ZANTAZ product pitch beat impressive technology presentations from Expand Networks, Iron Mountain, Promise Technology, StoreAge Networking Technologies, Texas Memory Systems, and WysDM.
"It's challenging to pitch against different technologies that overcome diverse business and technology issues," said Steve King, president and CEO, ZANTAZ. "Our focus was to communicate the size of the challenge faced by organizations with respect to effectively managing and disclosing email and electronic content. Once the panel understood the magnitude of the problems our technology solves and gained insight into ZANTAZ EAS' unique capabilities from both a content archiving and electronic discovery standpoint, it was a compelling combination that made us stand out from the competition."
King continued, "ZANTAZ content archiving products are far and away the most flexible solutions on the market. They can be deployed as an on-demand software service, onsite software, or a combination of the two, ensuring our customers can satisfy any number of IT and business requirements."
The judging panel was chaired by David Mardle, corporate partner, Taylor Wessing, with additional panel members including: Jon Collins, principal analyst, Macehiter Ward-Dutton; Tony Locke, Research Director for EMEA at Sageza Group; and Chris Smart, managing partner, Acacia Capital Partners.
