Vyatta Delivers Comprehensive Bailout Package for Network Economic Crisis

Offers Strained Infrastructure Budgets Immediate Positive Benefits That Compound Into the Future

Belmont, CA – 2008-10-02 05:00:00 – Vyatta, the leader in Linux-based networking, today announced economic relief for IT budgets by enabling their continued network upgrades with far less capital outlay.
 
"IT budgets are shrinking rapidly in response to the economic uncertainties caused by the financial crisis, but the need to continue network buildouts and upgrades is not slowing down," said Kelly Herrell, CEO of Vyatta. "Customers are telling us that their budgets are coming under review and that they can no longer afford to buy overpriced networking equipment from Cisco and other proprietary vendors. Now is an excellent time for customers to consider Vyatta for their network infrastructure. In addition to lowering CAPEX requirements by 50% or more, Vyatta puts networks on a radically more cost-efficient curve for scaling into future needs."
 
In addition to superior cost-effectiveness, Vyatta is announcing a program that enables IT budgets to stretch even further.
 
Program Benefits: 
EVERYDAY PRICING: Software and appliances that offer 50-75% savings over Cisco
FREE APPLIANCE - Buy 5 Vyatta appliances and get the 6th one free 
FREE SUBSCRIPTION - Buy 5 Vyatta subscriptions and get the 6th one free
 
Further details are available on the Vyatta web site (www.vyatta.com/bailout).
 
"If customers can't grow their networks, they can't grow their businesses," Herrell concluded. "Vyatta offers customers the choice to spend less of their budget on high-margin proprietary products without compromising quality or support. The industry needs change, and Vyatta is pleased that we can step up and be part of the solution, rather than the problem."
