Netintelligence contract win
iomart Group plc ('iomart') today announces that it has signed a five year
contract to supply its Netintelligence online security and parental control
software to MTA Inc., a US ISP based in Washington State and Alaska. The deal,
conservatively valued at US$500,000 over the five years will commence in
February 2006. MTA will be offering Netintelligence as a core part of their
internet service. All customers will receive anti-virus and anti-spyware as
standard and will be able to upgrade to full firewall and parental controls,
including Instant messaging and peer to peer control, web blocking and time
controls for a small monthly fee.
MTA has annual revenue of approximately US$80 million and currently has 45,000
customers.
An MTA spokesman said, 'We selected Netintelligence because they offered a very
simple to use product that covered off all the right security and internet
safety bases, whilst reducing support costs by increasing the number of
protected customers on our network. There is no doubt in our minds that the
Netintelligence solution is the only surefire way to do this right.'
Angus MacSween, chief executive of iomart commented 'This is the first
'bundling' contract with an ISP, where the Netintelligence product is delivered
as part of the basic internet service, guaranteeing usage and revenues.
Negotiations are ongoing with a number of other national and international
organisations for similar deals.
'Recent wins for the new hosted Netintelligence services through other channels
include Royal Mint, Companies House, William Grant and Bett Homes.
'The increasing acceptance of the Netintelligence web based end point approach
to security is encouraging, with a growing number of pilots and evaluations
underway.'
