Press Release Summary = NEW YORK, NY - May 4, 2005 - AdRem Software, provider of network management solutions, announced today the availability of AdRem SNMP Manager
- the new solution for remote management of network devices via Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP). Jointly with this product, the company releases another toolset for network professionals, AdRem iTools. The latter is a collection of
popular administrative utilities for network diagnosis and troubleshooting.

Press Release Body = "In our development strategy we put a premium on enabling IT professionals to make informed decisions by providing relevant meaningful information at their fingertips," said Borys Skraba, International Sales Manager at AdRem Software. "With this release, IT teams gain a set of multi-functional tools that focus on key management challenges and build on the proven technology of our increasingly popular network mapping and monitoring solution, NetCrunch. In fact, our SNMP Manager and iTools can nicely complement NetCrunch in any corporate management strategy. NetCrunch can serve as a central management console, while these tools can be used by administrators in remote locations. Thus, they can tune
and diagnose the network while still being able to access NetCrunch remotely over the web."

AdRem SNMP Manager provides a single enterprise console that consolidates and eases a wide spectrum of SNMP-related activities such as auto-discovery of SNMP devices, SNMP trap receiving and forwarding, as well as MIB viewing, compiling, loading, editing, and walking. The solution's key differentiator is its SNMP View Editor module, with which users can freely manipulate SNMP v1, v2, and v3 data by creating new lists, tables and forms for customized profiles of a device. As a result, they
gain an immediate insight into mission-critical aspects of each managed component. Apart from providing real-time visibility into crucial data, the solution enables users to set writable SNMP values as well as display derived values of selected device utilization statistics. With the latter option, the often obscure, raw SNMP data can be turned into actionable intelligence.

AdRem iTools is an integrated windows-driven console that provides a one-click access to familiar administrative utilities such as Ping, Trace Route, Port/Service Scanner, Connection analyzer, DNS lookup, SNMP manager, and others. While the tight
integration of the above utilities can eliminate the need to switch multiple windows or use command-line freeware utilities, network administrators can also fully benefit from data export and printing capabilities.

Software is offering promotional pricing. During this period, AdRem SNMP Manager is available for a US list price of $395 per single license, while AdRem iTools is listed at $99 per license (The prices include 12 months of free email and phone
