Media alert: Acronis has won the BEST SOFTWARE AWARD at the Latin Channels IX show

Orlando, Florida, August 27, 2002 — Acronis products has won the BEST SOFTWARE AWARD at the Latin Channels IX show (www.latinchannels.com) taking place this week in Orlando, FL. Announced today, the award goes to the best software at the show as decided by show attendees, consisting of 50 Latin American distributors, 50 major Latin American retailers and 10 Latin American system integrators who come to the United States twice a year to meet with manufacturers seeking to grow their business in Latin America.

Acronis develops the most innovative system utilities available, including popular titles like Acronis TrueImage, Acronis Privacy Expert, Acronis OS Selector, and Acronis Migrate Easy. The utilities are well known for their innovative feature, design and usability traits, and for their appeal to both beginner and expert PC users alike. Acronis continues to advance the system utilities category with new, easy-to-use utilities that feature Windows XP-based user interfaces and program wizards that help users avoid confusion and complete desired tasks quickly. Also, Acronis titles allow PC users to work in Windows, and do not require reboots, in most cases, whereas competitive products still require users work in DOS in many instances and require frequent reboots.

"We are extremely pleased to accept this award, and are gratified that Acronis products were recognized over popular titles from Microsoft and Encyclopedia Britannica, among others," said Dennis Burke, Sales and Business Development Manager for Acronis who accepted the award on the company's behalf.
