Gold Award Winner By Techtarget’s Searchexchange.Com

Mimosa NearPoint Wins the Best Exchange Products of 2006 “Gold Award” in Two Categories: Exchange Server Archiving and Compliance, and Exchange Server Backup and Recovery

Santa Clara, Calif. – January 17, 2007 – Mimosa Systems™, a leader in unified information management solutions for enterprise content, today announced that its Mimosa NearPoint for Microsoft Exchange Server 2.0 has received top honors in the SearchExchange.com ”Best Exchange Server Administration Products of 2006” awards by winning two “Gold Awards” in the categories of Exchange Server Archiving and Compliance, and Exchange Server Backup and Recovery.  This is the second consecutive year that Mimosa NearPoint has brought home the SearchExchange.com “Gold Award.” Mimosa NearPoint also won “The Gold” in the Messaging: Backup and Recovery category of SearchExchange.com’s “Best Exchange Server Messaging Products of 2005.”

“Mimosa NearPoint for Microsoft Exchange Server 2.0 handily bested a field of 10 for the Gold Award in SearchExchange.com's Archiving and Compliance category for Products of the Year 2006, with near perfect scores in innovation, functionality, ease of use and integration with Microsoft technologies and commodity storage,” said the editors of SearchExchange.com. “Mimosa NearPoint for Microsoft Exchange Server Version 2.0 also won the Gold Award for Exchange Server Backup and Recovery Products of the Year 2006, carrying on the reign of Mimosa NearPoint for Microsoft Exchange Version 1.0, which won the SearchExchange.com Gold Award in the Backup and Recovery category last year.”

“NearPoint was without peer for innovation based on what one judge described as the most novel use of log shipping outside of both SQL Server and Exchange Server 2007,” stated the editors of SearchExchange.com. “In terms of Exchange Server backup and recovery, judges said the product's two ‘biggest pluses’ are that it is ‘agent-less’ and, unlike other messaging backup products, it doesn't use journaling, which can strain Exchange Server performance. Judges also noted that out of all the contenders, Mimosa NearPoint for Microsoft Exchange Server Version 2.0 has the least amount of impact on the message store, since it does not require installation of any software on Exchange Server itself.”

The SearchExchange.com “Best Exchange Server Administration Products of 2006” awards were selected by a panel of judges who reviewed a total of 35 products in four major categories. The Judges rated each nominated product in seven categories including innovation, performance, ease of integration, ease of use and manageability, functionality, value and service and support.

“Mimosa is very honored to again make the list of ‘Gold’ winners in the prestigious TechTarget SearchExchange.com Best Exchange Server Administration Products of 2006 awards,” said Mike Ivanov, vice president of product marketing, Mimosa Systems. “We are especially pleased that, like our customers, the judges recognize the comprehensive value of Mimosa NearPoint as a solution that offers powerful archiving, compliance, data protection and disaster recovery functionality for the overall information management of Microsoft Exchange content.”
