Santa Clara, Calif. - July 11, 2006 - Mimosa SystemsT, a leader in unified information management solutions for enterprise content, today announced a new Disaster Recovery Option for its unified information management solution for email archiving, recovery and storage management, Mimosa NearPointT for Microsoft® Exchange Server . The NearPoint Disaster Recovery Option is the industry's only solution to provide application intelligent recovery that preserves data consistency and integrity and prevents replication of database corruption . For any size organization, Mimosa NearPoint's Disaster Recovery Option satisfies business needs to protect and restore access to critical Exchange service in the event of a disaster.

For California-based Costello & Sons Insurance, one of the nation's leading specialist insurance brokerages, NearPoint Disaster Recovery Option scored top marks as part of the company's overall disaster recovery strategy. "Microsoft Exchange is a more than just a business-critical application for Costello & Sons; it is the life-blood of our business," said Steve Perry, IT Director, Costello & Sons Insurance. "It's critical that we protect our Exchange environment from minor everyday disasters as well as those catastrophic disasters you hope never happen, including earthquakes and floods."

"We needed a fail-safe email disaster recovery strategy that in no way would disrupt our Exchange Servers and that would simplify recovery beyond the complex 40-step recovery processes of traditional replication solutions," continued Perry. "The Mimosa NearPoint Disaster Recovery Option is completely non-invasive and simplifies disaster recovery from a tedious manual error-prone process to just one click. With NearPoint's Disaster Recovery Option I no longer lay awake at night worrying about the availability of our Exchange system."

The Mimosa NearPoint Disaster Recovery Option delivers the highest level of Exchange data protection and availability available to organizations of all sizes. The Mimosa NearPoint Disaster Recovery Option features:

• Full Exchange Service Recovery: During a full Exchange service recovery, it completely restores Exchange data, rebinds mailboxes and re-establishes Exchange services for fast, reliable email service restoration to end users.

• Application Intelligence: Recovery processes are performed with true application intelligence; preserving the consistency and integrity of Exchange data and ensuring a corruption-free copy of Exchange databases.

• Off-Host Architecture : The completely non-invasive solution requires no agents or kernel driver software that may cause instability or compete for CPU, memory and storage resources.

• Flexible Implementation: The solution fits easily into any existing disaster recovery strategy and allows Exchange and NearPoint servers to be located either locally or remotely depending on enterprise needs.

• Simplified Administration and Configuration: Wizard-based configuration simplifies installation and administration and provides pre-test configuration check reports and starts recoveries with just a single mouse click.

"When a disaster strikes, companies need to get Exchange back up and running, but traditional email disaster recovery solutions are complex and can add significant time to the recovery process," said Doug Chandler, Program Director, Storage Software, IDC. "The Mimosa NearPoint Disaster Recovery Option is designed to streamline email data recovery and automatically restore different services, so that users get email access back quickly in the event of a disaster."
