Gaylord, Mich. – September 23, 2002 - Deerfield.com®, a leading provider of Internet optimization, connectivity, messaging, and security software, today announced the addition of WebSite to its VisNetic suite; VisNetic WebSite 3.5.

About the Strategic Meeting

In late August the founding developer of WebSite, Bob Denny, met at Deerfield.com headquarters to finalize tactics for developing, positioning, and promoting VisNetic WebSite 3.5 within the new VisNetic suite.

“Adding WebSite to our VisNetic suite further supports the needs of our small to medium-sized business customers by rounding out the Deerfield.com product offerings,” said Mike Deerfield, CEO of Deerfield.com. “Because WebSite is a trusted solution for those tasked with System Administration, VisNetic WebSite predictably extends itself as the infrastructure layer for application level solutions such as VisNetic MailFlow and VisNetic MailCast.”

"I'm thrilled that Deerfield.com chose WebSite as the preferred platform for the VisNetic suite,” said Bob Denny. “By having its own preferred server platform, the VisNetic suite can evolve without compromise. We're free to create new solutions to our customers' problems.”

As an integral piece of the VisNetic suite, the future direction and development of VisNetic WebSite will center on two key areas: continued improvements to support web hosting technologies and optimization for hosting VisNetic web-based applications, such as VisNetic MailFlow and VisNetic MailCast.
