[August 21, 2008]

Zenoss Core Recognized as Best Open Source Network Monitoring Solution

(Marketwire Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) ANNAPOLIS, MD, August 21 / MARKET WIRE/ --

Zenoss Core has been awarded the InfoWorld Best of Open Source Software
Award in the Network
Monitoring category. The InfoWorld judges cited Zenoss Core's
"unified, object-based repository of infrastructure monitoring," and
"tightly integrated tools and reports," as reasons for selecting Zenoss
Core as the leading open source solution for network monitoring. The Zenoss
Core project is sponsored and developed by Zenoss, Inc. a leading provider
of open source network, systems and
application management software.

"The breadth and quality of open source software continues to amaze us,"
notes Doug Dineley, Executive Editor of the InfoWorld Test Center. "We've
singled out 60 products for Bossies -- developer tools, middleware,
firewalls and routers, productivity apps, CRM and ERP, etc. -- and we're
only scratching the surface. When you look at all that's available, and how
good it is, you start to think that someday all software will be free."

This is one of many recent accolades for Zenoss. In July, Zenoss Core was
selected as a finalist in the SourceForge Community Choice Awards from over
180,000 projects hosted on SourceForge.net. Finalists were chosen by the
popular vote of the open source community. Zenoss was selected in the Best
Project for the Enterprise and Best Tool or Utility for SysAdmins
categories.

Also in July, the Northern Virginia Technical Council named Zenoss Inc. the
Venture Capital Deal of the Year after it completed an $11 million series B
financing round funded by Grotech Ventures, Intersouth Partners and Boulder
Ventures.

"We are pleased to be recognized as a leader in open source," said Zenoss
CEO, Bill Karpovich. "Strong adoption of our open source product has been
the catalyst for our impressive year over year customer and revenue growth.
Contributions from our community have also greatly enhanced our solution
and enabled us to deliver deeper, more relevant capabilities to our
customers than our competition."

Featured White Papers

  • Seven Best Practices for Speech Analytics: Speech analytics is valuable for identifying issues in the contact center. However, limiting its use to the contact center only considers a portion of all customer interactions and subsequently only reveals a small part of the voice of the customer. This paper discusses how organizations can optimize their Speech Analytics implementation strategy to realize the promise of this exciting technology.
  • Understanding the Voice of the Customer: Today's contact centers involve a sea of information that must be captured, processed, and distributed on a daily basis. Effective use of this information enables companies to remain competitive in an increasingly aggressive and customer centric marketplace. An overwhelming percentage of the information that circulates in a contact center's audio recordings, documents, web pages, and emails is unstructured in that it resides outside of a normal structured database and cannot be managed efficiently. These unstructured items contain valuable information, yet this information historically has been difficult to organize, categorize, and access.
