Org-Matters No Dummy: Chooses Fusepoint for Fully Managed Hosting and Microsoft Email Exchange Services


    Surging Interest in OrganizeMY(TM) Electronic Filing Cabinet for
    Dummies(R) Downloads Prompts CEO to Pursue Scalable, On Demand Network
    Performance Solutions

    TORONTO, May 15 /CNW/ - Fusepoint Managed Services, a leading provider of
outsourced IT services and infrastructure, today announced it has been
selected by Org-Matters, the creators of OrganizeMY Electronic Filing Cabinet
For Dummies software, to host, manage and maintain a high-performance,
high-availability Web site and Microsoft Email Exchange solution.
    The OrganizeMY Electronic Filing Cabinet For Dummies software download
turns chaos to sanity by enabling users to save and file all of their vital
information in an easy-to-use, pre-loaded file structure. The software also
contains life-tracking tools to help users record key details and complete
pre-built "To-Do's" for important life events and responsibilities. Just
recently launched, OrganizeMY has generated tremendous consumer interest;
recording 15,000 downloads alone in the first 30 days of availability.
    "We knew that we had a great product, but an essential part of the
overall user experience is first ensuring a smooth and problem-free download
delivery," said Org-Matters CEO and product creator, Michael Schweizer. "Our
partners comprise some of North America's leading financial institutions, and
as such it's our practice to operate under a 'zero tolerance for mistakes'
lens. We needed to ensure site security, scalability, redundancy, and zero
downtime - all of the peace of mind things that can keep a guy up at night.
Fusepoint came highly recommended with a solid track record and unmatched
credibility among existing customers. We knew they could deliver the standards
that we're expected to deliver."
    Fusepoint provides Org-Matters with a fully managed hosting environment -
guaranteeing the security, availability and performance of its Web site at all
times in an on demand model. Fusepoint also hosts and manages the Org-Matters'
communications infrastructure on Microsoft Email Exchange.
    "Fusepoint is keenly aware that Org-Matters requires a nimble and
flexible managed service provider; one that is in tune with stringent customer
requirements and ever-changing end-user needs," said George Kerns, president
and CEO, Fusepoint Managed Services. "Guaranteed Web and email availability
are now 'must haves' in the world of online business, but so too is the
ability to quickly scale for growth. Org-Matters is smartly positioned and
prepared from the back end to meet the needs of any future growth targets."
    "Scalability is essential due to the tremendous response rate that we've
had to date," added Schweizer. "Fusepoint has delivered a fully managed
hosting environment where data back-up and bandwidth is versatile. From
response times to actual implementation, all promises have been kept. The
folks at Fusepoint are responsive, nimble and just plain good at what they do.
As we embark on a Vista certified launch in North American retail stores on
May 21 as well as a major DSL internet download partner launch in June, we
know we're in great hands."
