CAMPBELL, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Aug. 18, 1999-- GraphOn Corporation (www.graphon.com; OTC BB:GOJO - news) today announced it has signed a strategic reseller agreement with Greenville, South Carolina-based Simple Future Corp., a networking specialist and systems integrator in thin client and security technologies.
Using GraphOn's GO-Joe(TM), GO-Global(TM), GO-Between(TM), and jBridge(TM) thin, server-based connectivity software, Simple Future will provide enterprises next generation Linux, UNIX, and soon-to-be-released NT application delivery over networks of all kinds, including web-enabling applications for delivery over the Internet which includes the emerging model for ASPs (application service providers).
GraphOn provides cost-effective server-based connectivity software to assist enterprises in deploying fully functional, business-critical UNIX, Linux, and soon-to-be-released NT applications to the thinnest of desktops for access by users around the world over WAN, LAN, dial-up or over the Internet.
''GraphOn products make it easy for us to give IT managers a choice of preferred network topology to deliver productivity to a wide variety of desktops throughout their enterprise regardless of where the application resides,'' said Jesper Jensen of Simple Future Corp. ''Simple Future is dedicated to enabling enterprises to realize significant reduction of total cost of ownership by centralizing applications on its customers' servers, simplifying the desktop and providing secure solutions for network and web-based delivery. GraphOn allows us to accomplish this without touching a line of our customers' application code.''
''Simple Future has an excellent grasp of the security and network delivery issues facing IT managers who want to give users secure access to server-based assets in a cost-effective way,'' says Eric Lefebvre, vice president of business development at GraphOn. ''In addition, their early work in the ASP market holds great promise for software vendors and others who want to leverage the Internet as the world wide network to deliver applications for rent. We look forward to working with Simple Future resellers in their many varied implementations of thin, server-based computing.''
