Business Wire, July 29, 1998

CAMBRIDGE, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--July 29, 1998--ON Technology Corporation (NASDAQ:ONTC) and csd Software GmbH & Co. KG, a wholly owned subsidiary of ON Technology based in Germany, today announced that the Berlin University Clinic Charite has selected ON Command CCM to manage their 2000 desktops and increase mission-critical PC availability. In addition, the Swedish association of northwestern hospitals NVSO (Nordvastra Sjukvardsomradet) has purchased ON Command CCM for 1000 PCs. Other new ON Technology customers include two Norwegian hospitals.

The Charite clinic recently ordered 500 licenses for ON Command CCM as well as ON Command Remote and Tally Systems NetCensus for remote control and inventory capabilities. Their total implementation plan includes managing 2000 PC workstations using ON Command CCM.

"In our clinic we depend on the problem-free operation of our PCs. This allows us to limit our system management costs and to improve the service we give our patients," said Dr. Holger Sasse, Manager of the IT Department at the Charite University Clinic. "ON Command CCM is an ideal solution for us; it not only provides us with the tools to install and configure the PCs centrally, but it also makes it easier to manage the individual PCs and, by drastically reducing down-time, makes the whole process more cost-effective."
