PrintFleet Releases Enhanced Data Collector Agent and Beta Version of Next Generation Optimizer

January 18, 2008

Ontario, Canada – PrintFleet Inc., a global leader in print management and assessment software, recently released an enhanced version of their Data Collector Agent (DCA) software which will widen the scope of imaging data collected for dealerships worldwide. The much anticipated beta release of the next generation PrintFleet Optimizer web interface was also recently made available to current PrintFleet customers, and debuted with first-rate reception.

The latest DCA was designed to build additional support for devices used in both North American and international markets. The addition of A3 and A4 meter collection makes it possible for international dealerships to implement a complete CPP program. Previously restricted to HP® devices, maintenance kit levels for all brands of devices are now collected. General support for new models from Canon®, Dell®, Kyocera®, and Lexmark® have also been built into this release.

"This latest version of the DCA expands the core device support of our software, as we continue to lead the market in breadth, depth, and accuracy of data collected," stated Norman McConkey, President and CEO of PrintFleet Inc. "We paid particular attention to expanding data collection metrics for devices used in international markets to support our rapidly growing install base overseas."

The beta release of the next generation PrintFleet Optimizer web interface made its initial debut in late 2007. The revamped interface features user friendly tabs, tree navigation, and drag-and-drop selection areas. Feature enhancements include unlimited customizable dashboard views, enhancements to the reporting engine including the ability to schedule any report, a search function, and the ability to view scans uploaded from PrintFleet Suite PRO. The full release of the new Optimizer interface is scheduled for launch on February 1st, 2008 and current PrintFleet customers can preview the system at any time by contacting PrintFleet and scheduling a beta download.

"The new Optimizer web interface is nothing short of impressive," stated Lynne D'Ambrosio, CEO of Global Print Management, the exclusive Australian Master Distributor of PrintFleet software. "It is extremely user friendly and the alphabet customer sorting and search functions are fantastic. The extensive engineering work here is clear, and by all accounts, it will certainly benefit us and our dealer partners running a managed print program."

"The new PrintFleet Optimizer interface is, by any standards, a web application of the next generation, and we are very excited to get it out in the market," stated McConkey. "There are plenty of new features to talk about, but just in terms of ease of navigation and ease of use, it now feels like you are using a desktop application. There is nothing else like it in the market."
