Confio Software Achieves Record Results

New Customer Growth Drives 57% Booking Increase in Q3

October 23, 2006 – Boulder, CO - Confio Software, the leading developer of Wait-Time based Application Performance Management software, announced that customer bookings for the third quarter of 2006 increased by 57% over the prior quarter, the latest in a series of five consecutive record setting quarters at Confio. Notable in Q3 was the record number of new customers investing in Confio Igniter™ Suite products to improve their IT service level and reduce the total cost of their IT infrastructure.

"Our results reflect outstanding adoption of our best practice Wait-Time analysis method, the core around which the Igniter Suite is built", stated Charlie Sander, CEO of Confio. "Our customer acquisition is driven by real results we deliver for customers and the high levels of satisfaction they achieve".

Products in the Igniter Suite include Confio Ignite& for Oracle, resolving bottlenecks in Oracle databases by identifying the sources of Wait-Time slowing down the database applications, and Ignite™ for Java, which extends the solution to J2EE applications dependent on Oracle databases. The Suite is the only performance management solution focused from the database layer upwards, giving database managers a tool to make radical improvements in the applications they serve.

Customers licensing Confio products in Q3 include ADT in the security sector, Medtronic in medical devices, Checkpoint Software in security software, CIBC in financial services, Prologis in real estate, and University of Alabama in the education market. Demand is strong across all segments, reflecting a universal need to squeeze maximum value from business critical application infrastructure, and to ensure service levels for IT's customers.

"I am also proud to announce that we booked significant license growth with current Confio users, an indication of the high degree of customer satisfaction Confio establishes with its customers", added Sander.

Ignite for Oracle is notable for delivering rapid results, with customers able to download, install and begin identifying problems within 30 minutes. In response to the expansion of mixed database environments covering combinations of Oracle, Microsoft and IBM databases, Confio has begun trials of Ignite versions for Microsoft SQL Server and IBM DB2 as well. Free trials of Ignite can be obtained instantly from www.confio.com.
