OMS SafeHarbor Inc., a leading supplier of electronic software delivery (ESD) and digital logistics solutions for software publishers, and NaviSite, a leading provider of managed application services, today announced the launch of EntitleNow! a fully-managed application that software vendors can use for releasing, manufacturing, protecting, entitling, and delivering software products. The hosted solution, which will be featured at the Software Business 2003 conference at The Westin Waltham on October 21 and 22, relies on NaviSite A-Services managed infrastructure to enable the reliable delivery of this comprehensive offering.

EntitleNow! deploys OMS SafeHarbor's proven RESCUE and ACROSS products in an integrated, hosted environment for more efficient product delivery to customers, and improved product licensing and entitlement, product management, supply chain management, and customer service. Software publishers utilizing EntitleNow!, can quickly deploy a comprehensive, integrated solution that marshals their products from Done to Delivered in one collaborative interface. According to Campbell Stras, vice president of marketing, Altaworks, a leading developer of J2EE Web application performance management software,"The EntitleNow! solution is an ideal ESD vehicle through which we can deliver software to our customers. Having the solution managed and hosted by a vendor with a reputation like NaviSite allows us to concentrate on servicing our customers, not on the electronic distribution of our software."

Altaworks' flagship product, Panorama , helps optimize enterprise Web applications by quickly isolating complex performance problems across the entire Web infrastructure, improving the end-user experience and significantly reducing costly troubleshooting and downtime. "EntitleNow! provides a cost effective solution for software publishers that want to immediately realize the benefits of ESD and digital logistics," said Keith Caveney, president and CEO of OMS SafeHarbor.

"We chose to partner with NaviSite because of their deep understanding of Independent Software Vendors (ISVs), their leadership position in managed services, and unrivaled expertise in electronic content delivery." "We worked with OMS SafeHarbor to design a high performance, high availability environment that will meet the needs of the most demanding software publishers," said Will Scott, vice president of products and services for NaviSite. "EntitleNow! is a compelling integrated ESD solution that automates the business processes around releasing, entitling, and delivering high value digital content."
