Digital Fuel Joins Check Point OPSEC Alliance

Digital Fuel to Integrate Market-Leading Managed Application Services Infrastructure with Check Point VPN-1/FireWall-1

Santa Clara, California - October 2, 2000

Digital Fuel Inc. today announced that its groundbreaking managed application services platform will be integrated with Check Point's OPSEC Framework. Established in 1998 by Check Point Software (NASDAQ: CHKP), the worldwide leader in securing the Internet, the Open Platform for Security (OPSEC) Alliance is the premiere open standard for integrated network security. Digital Fuel is the leading provider of managed application services infrastructure. Its ServiceFlow: Performance™ platform enables service providers to manage multi-partner, multi-platform service environments, guarantee hundreds of service levels, and easily support complex service level agreements (SLAs).

"Service providers are responsible for tracking numerous service levels and managing multiple, highly customized SLAs. They are also accountable for all service levels - such as network and server performance, security, routine backups, etc. - whether they outsource these functions or not," explains Benny Lehmann, Chief Executive Officer and co-founder of Digital Fuel. "We provide an integrated, web-based system that lets service providers view all these metrics for each customer from a single screen, and this system also automates even the most complex billing reports."

By adopting OPSEC standards, Digital Fuel will enable its core system to display real-time security information alongside other critical service levels and provide flexible reporting on security trends. These enhancements allow service providers to respond more quickly to security events such as intrusions, develop more effective security policies, and increase customer confidence.

"We welcome Digital Fuel to the OPSEC Alliance," said Bradley Brown, director of business development for Check Point Software Technologies. "Interoperability between Digital Fuel's unique platform and Check Point VPN-1/FireWall-1 provides a best-of-breed approach to application security that enables service providers to reduce security risks and event response times, while they simplify compliance with SLAs and improve customer service."

By integrating ServiceFlow: Performance™ with VPN-1/FireWall-1, Digital Fuel will enable service providers to analyze security audit, trend, and cost data from VPN-1/FireWall-1's using the OPSEC SDK and incorporate this information into billing reports. "Digital Fuel's partnership with Check Point underscores our commitment to providing a complete solution that enables our customers to easily implement SLAs and ensure continuous, high performance application services," concludes Lehmann.

Digital Fuel Announces Record-Breaking 2007 Results

Break-Out Year Highlighted By Record Sales, 550 Plus Customers and Widespread Adoption by Blue-Chip Companies Across All Market Segments and Geographies

SAN MATEO, Calif. – March 31, 2008 Digital Fuel ®, the leader in customer-facing Business Service Management (BSM) software solutions, today announced that it has experienced its most successful year to date. The strong and growing demand for Digital Fuel’s integrated suite of service management solutions resulted in another record year of bookings growth in excess of 100%. Digital Fuel continued its hyper-growth trajectory with 16 consecutive quarters of revenue growth, the expansion of its product suite and widespread adoption by a loyal and growing base of blue-chip customers across the Americas, EMEA and Asia Pacific.

Noteworthy highlights for 2007, underscoring rapid growth and future opportunities, include:

Digital Fuel closing new sales in record time
Digital Fuel’s ServiceFlow integrated software suite of Service Catalog, SLM, and Finance delivered staggering results over the last year with shortened sales cycles, including numerous seven-figure deals that each closed in just a few months, half the time typical for enterprise software transactions, with one that closed in less than 90 days. Accelerated sales cycles illustrate Digital Fuel’s outstanding software capabilities to manage IT, Telco, HR, and F&A business services in a manner that cuts through complexities and delivers real business results.

Digital Fuel customers are achieving value at a breakneck pace
In 2007, a record number of service providers and enterprise internal service groups implemented ServiceFlow in record time, enabling improved, standardized services and rapid attainment of new customers. These rapid implementation periods are unmatched due to expanded out-of-the-box functionality, reducing the time-to-value down to an average of less than 30 days across all industries and geographies. Successful new implementations were enacted in Germany, France, the United Kingdom, Canada and across the United States at leading global companies such as British Telecom (BT), BP, Capgemini, Cisco, Computacenter, IBM, Reuters, Schneider, Siemens, Telefonica, Transport for London, Steria, Xansa, Xerox and many others.

ServiceFlow becomes the industry standard across all market segments
Over the last twelve months, commercial service providers and enterprise internal service organizations have standardized on ServiceFlow at record levels for the management of IT and business services. Numerous commercial outsourcing service providers standardized on Digital Fuel for service excellence, including Capgemini, Computacenter, IBM BTO, Siemens, Unisys, Steria, and others. Across the communications and media industries, an impressive number of Telco service providers made ServiceFlow their de facto standard for service management at prestigious companies such as BT, Sprint, Telus, Arqiva, O2 and Telefonica, to name just a few. The escalating need for internal service organizations at global enterprises to run IT, HR and F&A services like a business has driven companies like P&G, Capital One, Dell, Transport for London, Nestle, GE and Cummins to implement ServiceFlow to meet and overcome this challenge.

"2007 marked another year of exemplary growth for Digital Fuel, a year where we hit all-time records in acquisition of new customers,” said Yisrael Dancziger, President and CEO of Digital Fuel. “Our latest Fortune 500 customer purchased ServiceFlow within 90 days of initially expressing interest in our ITIL Service Catalog. This and other accelerated sales cycles are clear indications of the soaring demand for an integrated ITIL v3 solution like ServiceFlow, the only product that simply delivers business results quickly with the lowest TCO. The exceptional outcome of 2007 confirms that Digital Fuel is the standard for service excellence and indicates an even more exciting year to come.”
