IBC 2007 - AMSTERDAM, HOLLAND and OTTAWA, CANADA - September 6th, 2007 - Unlimi-Tech
Software today announced that FileCatalyst, it's industry leading accelerated file
transfer suite, is now fully integrated with Microsoft Interactive Media Manager
(IMM).

Microsoft Interactive Media Manager is a collaborative media management solution
that extends Microsoft Office SharePointŪ Server 2007 for media and entertainment
companies. The solution builds on existing technology investments, and helps
companies create an end-to-end content production system accessible by everyone. In
addition, Interactive Media Manager easily integrates with Microsoft business
intelligence tools, giving management insight into production details.

Featuring patent-pending acceleration technology with less than 1% overhead,
on-the-fly compression and byte-level incremental transfers, FileCatalyst uses
software automation to overcome the file transfer inefficiencies associated with FTP
or other traditional file transfer methods. Not only can FileCatalyst guarantee line
speed, it can actually provide effective throughput 2-3 times greater than line
speed. This translates to speeds 50 or more times faster than traditional transfer
methods.

"File transfer is an important part of any media management solution, and IMM is no
exception," said Gabriele Di Piazza, managing director of Media and Entertainment in
the Communications Sector at Microsoft Corp. "The integration of FileCatalyst
technology helps IMM users to remove the file transfer bottlenecks from their
workflow."

"We are excited to offer Microsoft IMM customers the opportunity to experience the
speed, security and reliability of FileCatalyst", explained Chris Bailey,
Unlimi-Tech's CEO, "IMM customers can expect a speed gain anywhere from 2 to 50
times faster than what they are used to depending on their bandwidth and geographic
location."
