FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

boxIT, LLC, Launches Innovative Internet based
Communication Service for Businesses of All Sizes

SAN FRANCISCO, California, October 31, 2003—Application service provider boxIT, LLC, today announced the release of boxIT Version 1.0, software for secure, remote access to company e-mail, contacts, calendars, and shared files. Version 1.0 adds mobility to the mix with support for Research In Motion’s Blackberry handheld e-mail device.

boxIT’s office collaboration tools allow colleagues to work together regardless of their location, using either Microsoft Outlook or an easy-to-use Web interface. Version 1.0’s support for the RIM Blackberry extends boxIT’s capabilities to the world’s leading mobile information platform—giving employees anywhere, anytime access to company resources.

Security and reliability are built in to boxIT’s tools. Remote connections are made using encrypted protocols such as VPN, SSL, and SCP, with support for 3DES and AES encryption. When one user changes a document from the office or on the road, boxIT updates all other users and copies those changes to a secure, remote backup.

"Imagine going on a week-long sales trip and having your laptop crash on the flight home," said company VP of Operations Thor Mhyrstad. "With boxIT, your data would already be synchronized to your desktop, your file server, and the remote backup site."

Businesses of all sizes can now benefit from enterprise-class IT infrastructure by using boxIT. With services starting at $14.95 a month per user, even individuals can afford groupware tools that would cost tens of thousands of dollars to buy. Add boxIT’s e-mail and Web hosting options, and users receive a complete package of IT services, all managed by a dedicated team of support professionals.

A free, 30-day trial of boxIT Version 1.0 is available for download at www.boxitllc.com.
