PRESS RELEASE

Bloxx, the innovator in web and email filtering, today announced that it has reduced its UK prices by 5%, to help organisations deal with the challenge of working with tighter IT budgets yet cannot compromise on security due to increasing levels of web and email security threats.

Bloxx has worked closely with its local suppliers to achieve this price reduction, and it comes at a time when other suppliers such as Websense, Sonicwall and Barracuda have announced price increases

“Bloxx has strong empathy with customers and we believe that when times are tough we must work with them to look for ways to help them reduce costs and ease their pain. Other vendors seem intent on having their customers pay more to dig them out of a hole” said Pat Dunne, VP of Sales at Bloxx.

“Organisations across all sectors are under severe pressure to reduce IT costs, yet the demands are increasing on IT teams to ensure that they have outstanding protection in place to deal with threats that continue to grow exponentially. The innovative advanced technology in the Bloxx Web and Email Filters means that customers can have the highest levels of security and protection at a price that is not prohibitive.”

“This is good news for our channel partners as well - we will maintain our current margins and the price reduction should provide increased opportunities to displace competitors’ products,” Dunne added.

“Bloxx product pricing was already significantly below other leading filtering products and this has allowed NTS to deliver substantial savings to our customers and grow our sales,” said Phil Dick, Director at NTS. “This price reduction makes Bloxx filtering an even more compelling proposition for organisations that need to save money but still need to ensure that they are deploying security products that deliver outstanding protection.”
