Neuxpower to showcase next-generation file optimization solutions that reduce Microsoft Office and JPEG files by 95%* and optimize low-bandwidth links

STORAGE DECISIONS NSG, Chantilly, VA. – Neuxpower (www.neuxpower.com), the global leader in file optimization software, today announced that it has deployed its leading NXPowerLite Desktop Edition to over 300,000 defense users across NATO, The United States Armed Forces and Allies. The NXPowerLite Desktop Edition is delivering real value to troops in the field who require a simple, turnkey solution to reduce file bloat and to optimize storage resources and low-bandwidth links.

Neuxpower will be demonstrating the power of the company’s suite of file optimization solutions for Defense and Government attendees during the Storage Decisions NSG Summit on Wednesday, October 13, 2010 at the Dulles Expo Center in Chantilly, VA.

Microsoft Office is widely used across most global defense networks, providing a rich exchange of information and knowledge. Documents, spreadsheets and presentations frequently include images, charts and other graphics that are highly relevant to the information being conveyed. Unfortunately, these files can get extremely large and network bandwidth is severely limited in many defense environments and storage capacity is also often constrained.

NXPowerLite technology optimizes Word, Excel, PowerPoint and JPEG files, reducing them to a fraction of their original size. They remain in their original format, with no discernible loss of quality – and there's no need to unzip before using them. A simple-to-deploy, environmentally friendly solution, NXPowerLite offers measurable and incremental benefits and improves the flow of critical information. And, because it doesn't change the format of files, it also ensures complete compatibility with Allied/Coalition partners.

"NXPowerLite is able to contribute to the reduction of pressure on network overheads; ensuring optimal and rapid passage of information,", said Paul Jochimsen, Wing Commander RAF, SO1 Information Knowledge Management, NATO HQ ARRC.

Neuxpower solutions are deployed by many of the world’s leading organizations and are accredited for use by such well-known defense organizations as the U.S. Army, Air Force and Navy; U.S. Department of Defense, British Ministry of Defence, and Canadian National Defence.

"Troops out in deployment need to make the most of low-bandwidth links and limited resources in the field," said Mike Power, CEO, Neuxpower. "NXPowerLite enables them to optimize files on their desktops and, with NXPowerLite for File Servers, they can also reduce unnecessary storage consumption so that they may further maximize their limited resources without costly upgrades. The Storage Decisions NSG Summit 2010 is the ideal place to highlight how defense and government organizations around the globe have improved their in-field computing with Neuxpower solutions."

Defense organizations see value of Neuxpower file optimization solutions

"We have implemented NXPowerLite into our Lotus Notes environment and it has seen a massive reduction on our low bandwidth international links which we are very happy with," said an official spokesperson at the Australian Department of Defense.

"NXPowerLite has proven itself to be a very effective and simple to use tool. It has been thoroughly tested under the most rigorous of circumstances and was never once found wanting," said Paul Jochimsen, Wing Commander RAF, SO1 Information Knowledge Management, NATO HQ ARRC.

"We used NXPowerLite in Kandahar and the software was perfect for our use. We were able to reduce a lot of HDD space usage and it made our network more stable," said an official spokesperson for Canadian Forces School of Communications & Electronics.
