Faronics' Deep Freeze Placed on BC Hydro's Preferred List of Energy-Saving Products

10 September 2005

Faronics Corporation, a leading
developer of intelligent utilities for absolute control of multi-user
computing environments, announced its flagship solution Deep Freeze Enterprise
Edition has been approved by one of Canada's largest electric utilities as a
valuable energy-efficient tool.
BC Hydro, which services more than 94% of British Columbia's population,
has included Deep Freeze under the utility's Product Incentive Program (PIP).
Deep Freeze is listed on BC Hydro's e.Catalog, an online database that allows
contractors, distributors and BC Hydro's business customers to search and
review information about energy-efficient products that have been screened by
BC Hydro.
Deep Freeze instantly protects and preserves original computer
configurations while allowing complete unrestricted access to a workstation.
As a result, computing environments are easier to manage and maintain. A
simple restart eradicates all changes and resets the computer to its original
state. Deep Freeze protects over five million computers worldwide -- saving
organizations countless hours of technical support.
Deep Freeze includes two unique features that effectively manage energy
consumption of individual workstations. The Scheduled Restart or Shutdown
feature enables administrators to specify when workstations will be shut down,
ensuring that workstations are not left on overnight or during the weekend.
Idle Time Restart or Shutdown directs a workstation to shut down if no mouse
movements or keyboard strokes are detected for a specified period of time.
"Not only is Deep Freeze the standard in disk protection, but it also
provides the added benefit of energy efficiency, which is vital to modern
businesses and organizations," said Vik Khanna, chief operating officer with
Faronics. "In many cases, energy expenses are much higher than necessary due
to technological hardware running when it doesn't have to."
BC Hydro's own pilot programs utilizing Deep Freeze in four Vancouver-area
schools resulted in savings of four million kilowatts of power, or
CAD$200,000, per year, according to David Rogers, technology and project
management specialist with BC Hydro.
"BC Hydro's goal is to provide energy solutions to our customers in an
environmentally and socially responsible way," said Rogers. "Faronics' Deep
Freeze software meets our high-energy efficiency standards while providing an
excellent opportunity to B.C.-area businesses to save a significant amount on
energy costs."
Deep Freeze is listed on e.Catalog at http://www.bchydro.com/ecatalog
under the main product category, "Controls." For more information about Deep
