HARVARD’S UNIVERSITY INFORMATION SYSTEMS DEPARTMENT PRESENTED WITH GIFT OF AUTOVIRT AUTOCLONE SOFTWARE
Software Presented Free-of-Charge under AutoVirt Corporate Gifting Program
Nashua, NH – August 17, 2009 – AutoVirt™, Inc., the leading provider of distributed file system virtualization and management software for Windows, today announced that it has presented Harvard’s University Information Systems (IS) department with a gift of its AutoClone Software, a Windows file data replication software designed to improve reliability, fault-tolerance and accessibility. Harvard’s IS department received its copy of AutoClone as a beneficiary of AutoVirt’s Corporate Gifting Program, under which employees of AutoVirt have the opportunity to designate the charity and/or educational institution of their choosing to receive AutoVirt’s products and product support – completely free-of-charge.
“As one would expect, the fact that AutoClone was presented to Harvard’s IS department under AutoVirt’s Corporate Gifting Program did not influence the university’s exacting standards. The IS staff did its homework – putting AutoClone through rigorous testing, as well as conducting an in-depth analysis of all possible alternative technologies,” said Josh Klein, President and CEO of AutoVirt. “AutoClone made the grade – delivering intelligent error handling, destination share support, heterogeneous storage support, and real-time monitoring, as well as speeds that far surpassed its current solution. Moreover, it provided industry-unique capabilities, such as the ability to copy open files that are in use by other users or applications, as well as replicate security attributes of files.”
Harvard’s University Information Systems Department commented, “We greatly appreciate AutoVirt’s generous gift and are using the product for our department’s standard copy program with results that meet the business needs of our department.”

"High-end file virtualization providers have nurtured the market – moving from the early adopters into the mainstream enterprise with demonstrable value, especially in file. Unfortunately, many of these products are too expensive or complicated for smaller to mid size organizations. AutoVirt is delivering an easy to manage, highly scalable solution that provides the value at an affordable cost."
