ApplianceWare provides the best value proposition in the NAS server software market and offers an innovative product that is substantially ahead of competitive solutions. ApplianceWare believes that the current providers of NAS server appliances (also called "filers") have failed to offer the market a cost effective solution that properly addresses the performance and management requirements of the distributed NAS market. A NAS server needs to provide compelling performance, ease of administration, and total cost of ownership advantages when compared to traditional server-attached storage solutions. The markets our products serve range from the cost sensitive small workgroup market to the high performance and feature rich systems demanded by large multinational corporations.

While ApplianceWare incorporates advanced technology developed in the open source community, we go beyond this level with proprietary architecture that maximizes NAS performance and reliability. By incorporating applicable open source developments into our product, ApplianceWare has been able to focus its resources on developing the proprietary technologies that create an extremely stable, high performance, NAS specific solution for OEMs, Systems Integrators, and VARs.

ApplianceWare provides NAS software solutions that are demonstrably superior in price and performance than those of our competitors. ApplianceWare powered entry level solutions offer substantially more features, performance, and functionality than the competitive products offered by companies such as Quantum and Maxtor. In addition, our more advanced software solutions offer competitive performance and features to high-end products offered by companies such as EMC and Network Appliance but at substantially less cost.
