JULY 25, 2005, South San Francisco, CA — Acronis, Inc., the technological leader in storage management software, announced that Sweetwater, the Fort Wayne, IN-based music and audio gear retailer, selected Acronis True Image backup and disaster recovery software to be installed on its Sweetwater Creation Station systems.

"Sweetwater's customers expect us to always go the extra mile in providing them with the best service and the best products available anywhere," said Chuck Surack, president of Sweetwater Sound. "When we designed our Sweetwater Creation Station computers (http://www.sweetwater.com/creation_station/), we knew that these were machines that would be used by audio and music professionals under extremely demanding conditions, with deadlines and pressure that allowed for no downtime and no reliability issues.

"By providing Acronis True Image for workstations with our fine line of Creation Station computers, we feel that we are offering customers a solution they can depend on for all their production needs," Surack said.

"Acronis is proud to serve such a demanding clientele," said Max Tsypliaev, CEO of Acronis.

At Acronis, we have the same devotion to data, be it digitized music, corporate spreadsheets or images."
