Protocall Signs Licensing Agreement with CA
CA’s eTrust® Suite of Internet Security Solutions to be Available on Protocall’s TitleMatch™ On‐Demand Virtual Inventory System
Commack, NY, April 19, 2006 – Protocall Technologies Incorporated (OTC BB: PCLI) www.protocall.com, today announced a licensing agreement with CA (NYSE: CA), one of the world's largest information technology management software companies, to include the CA suite of award‐winning home and home office software products on Protocall’s TitleMatch virtual inventory system for the retail marketplace beginning in the second quarter of 2006. “CA is clearly one of the preeminent global providers of technology management software whose products represent a strong addition to our growing library of content,” said Donald Hoffmann, CEO of Protocall Technologies. “We view this latest agreement with CA as further evidence that a growing number of major software companies will be incorporating virtual inventory as part of their channel distribution strategy.” “We see Protocall’s virtual inventory system as an excellent opportunity for CA to increase availability of our products with consumers,” said George Kafkarkou, CA Senior Vice President for SMB and Consumer. “Virtual inventory can help us expand product distribution in the retail channel where immediate availability is vital to driving sales and maintaining brand awareness.” Protocall's TitleMatch system enables brick & mortar retailers and online etailers to produce fully packaged CD and DVD digital media products on‐demand at their stores and website order distribution centers. TitleMatch shifts product delivery closer to the time of sale and reduces dependence on physical inventories, one of the industry's largest cost categories. At store locations, consumers can browse and select available products from multi‐media touch‐screen display terminals located on the sales floor. Orders are produced behind the counter by store personnel in minutes using the system's order‐fulfillment station. For online orders, consumers browse and select available titles from an etailer’s website with orders produced at product distribution centers or store locations. CA’s eTrust suite of Internet security solutions provide comprehensive protection against viruses, hackers, identity thieves, spyware, spam, offensive websites, and other online threats that can jeopardize privacy, data, and a computer’s performance. CA’s home and home office products combine easy‐to‐use, award‐winning, business‐strength technology with preconfigured settings and daily automatic updates that take the guesswork out of PC security. CA’s eTrust® EZ Anti Virus, eTrust® PestPatrol® Anti‐Spyware, eTrust® Anti‐Spam, eTrust® Personal Firewall, eTrust® Internet Security Suite, and Desktop DNA® Migrator, which comes bundled with CA’s eTrust Internet Security Suite, will be included in Protocall’s virtual inventory system. CA’s consumer products join over a thousand other software products that are available through Protocall’s TitleMatch system. About Protocall Technologies
