INSYNQ INC (U-ISYN) - News Release InsynQ Announces 'Always-On' Computing for Broadband/ISP Billion Dollar Market; An Additional Income Source for Internet Service Providers
TACOMA, Wash.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Sept. 17, 2003--InsynQ, Inc. (OTC BB: ISYN) announced today that it began marketing of its Always-On Utility Computing wholesale web services directed to major telecommunication carriers as well as independently-owned and operated Internet Service Providers (ISPs). John P. Gorst, President, commented "For the last two years InsynQ has been developing and refining the Always-On Utility Computing service with wholesale partners including a major telecommunications company in the mid-west. We have proven that we can bundle on-line software services with broadband and market that product through our wholesale partners to significant numbers of potential customers. We feel the market has finally matured and is educated as to the value of reducing IT costs and receive added benefits by subscribing to our 'Shared Utility Computing Services.' We expect, in the next three to five years, to capture 2 - 3% of this billion dollar broadband market. "In today's small business environment, it is the local ISP and broadband providers who can be the first stop for many businesses needing technical advice. It is that relationship that we feel can be expanded through the introduction to our Always-On product lineup. Always-On service can include virus protection, data storage and hosted software such as Microsoft Office, Intuit QuickBooks, ACT! Sales Force tools as well as many others. Overall, these services are expected to provide significant benefits by creating a stronger and more diversified operations both for InsynQ as well as with our new wholesale partners enabling greater efficiencies, infrastructure cost savings, and more diverse products for customers. "For an ISP that provides broadband or dial-up services to compete in today's fast moving market, it must be willing to adapt itself to customer technology needs that continue to evolve. New services are introduced continually as technology advancements have allowed thus creating opportunity for customer up-sell. The over 7,000 small to mid-size ISPs out there are looking to expand their service offerings so to generate not only additional income, but also to create a market niche differentiating themselves from national competitors." This level of service provides standard off-the-shelf Windows applications to small/medium enterprise and SoHo clients on a subscription basis alleviating the need for the client to purchase licenses, servers, antivirus software, or other items needed to maintain a Windows network. The Always-On service is provided through direct telesales for the smaller (10 - 50 user) clients, and through face-to-face sales for the larger clients that have more complex needs. For its subscribers, Always-On offers immediate access to a variety of software titles, with no installation required. The Insynq ASP model eliminates the need to install and maintain software on personal computers, allows for storage of data and information either on the server or the local machine, and provides value added features while using the software. This ASP model also reduces the risk of computer viruses and allows for ongoing backups of user data and important information.
