BlackBall's BlackMagic Server Edition Wins Best of Interop at NetWorld+Interop 2004 Las Vegas;
Software Solution Simplifies Finding Files, MP3s, Videos, Graphics
BlackMagic Server Edition from BlackBall Inc. won the Best of Interop Award in the Network Applications Software category.
CMP Media announced the winners today during NetWorld+Interop 2004 in Las Vegas.
BlackMagic Server Edition is an intelligent data file system that uses familiar web and Windows(TM) interfaces to help you
find files on local and network volumes. BlackMagic transparently solves complex problems of data management, replacing
the need for separate applications such as document, digital asset, storage and database management, or content delivery
and management.
"It's hard to believe that it's easier to find something on the Internet using free search tools than it is to find something
on your own hard drive or on network," said Patricia Brown, President & COO BlackBall, Inc." We're thrilled that CMP recognizes
that we're solving a distinct problem for aggravated users trying to locate the right file at the right time. Our thanks to
them for this recognition."
The editors of CMP Media's CRN, Network Computing, VARBusiness and Network Magazine, four of CMP Media's premier information
technology publications, reviewed over 150 submissions while evaluating new products. Finalists were then selected in 10
categories. BLACKMAGIC was named a Finalist in Network Applications Software category. The Best of Interop Awards are designed
to help IT and network managers shorten the evaluation process in assessing new technology and products.
