Original Press Release:



NeoPath Fileyzer(TM) Breaks Ground With Powerful But Easy File Storage Characterization and Analysis



New Actionable Storage Analysis and Optimization Product, With Trial Version Available for Free Download, Provides Graphical On-Demand Analysis

SANTA CLARA, Calif., Dec. 4 /-- NeoPath Networks, a leading provider of network file management (NFM) solutions, today announced the release of NeoPath Fileyzer(TM), a Windows-based solution that allows storage administrators to analyze data on file servers and NAS devices using a graphical, on-demand presentation. Fileyzer offers administrators the ability to monitor and perform actionable storage optimization analysis to maximize storage utilization, minimize management costs and reduce complexity in existing storage environments.

Fileyzer gives administrators the ability to perform "what-if" file migration analyses, and allows them to see what their storage environment would look like if potential migrations were carried out. In the future, administrators will have the ability to integrate Fileyzer with NeoPath's File Director(TM), a combination that will result in a turn-key data migration and tiering solution that enables users to determine how storage is being used, analyze different migration policies, create the desired policy and migrate files using NeoPath's safe migration technology.

"The difference between standard monitoring and analysis tools and the NeoPath Fileyzer is like comparing radio and television," said Tony Asaro, senior analyst, Enterprise Strategy Group. "It is the visual representation of information that makes it so powerful. The problem is that we are inundated and overwhelmed with information to the point where it becomes useless. Fileyzer takes all of your file storage information and makes it useful, valuable and actionable."

"Fileyzer solves customer challenges associated with storage tiering and file migration, and it reduces storage complexity," said Alan Baratz, CEO and President of NeoPath Networks. "Fileyzer extends our vision of offering high performance, highly scalable file storage management solutions to customers experiencing massive data growth."

To accelerate product adoption, and for customers who are eager to take advantage of an easy to use storage resource monitoring tool, NeoPath is offering a trial version of Fileyzer as a free download for all interested parties. Please visit neopathnetworks.com/products/fileyzertrial.aspx for the free download.

In addition, you may join NeoPath Networks along with senior analyst, Tony Asaro of Enterprise Strategy Group on 12/12/06 at 10:00 a.m. PST for a live webcast, as he hosts an in-depth discussion on the value of file storage optimization alongside a Fileyzer demonstration by NeoPath. The webinar will be followed by a Q&A session. Visit neopathnetworks.com/news/12dec06_webinar.aspx to participate in the online event.
