Group data documents Detto Technologies'
growth in retail market -- reinforces
Detto's position as leader in consumer
marketplace
BELLEVUE,
WA (Business Wire) Dec. 14, 2004 - Detto
Technologies (OTCBB:DTTO), already the
leading provider of consumer migration
software, selling through Original Equipment
Manufacturers (OEMs) including Apple,
Dell, HP/Compaq and Gateway, has gained
almost a 40% market share of the retail
migration sector, after only four months,
according to numbers released for October,
2004 by the NPD Group (an independent
market research company.)
Detto's
retail partner, Nova Development, launched
Detto's PC migration suite, Transfer Your
PC Deluxe, into the retail market in July,
and has been quickly gaining market share.
Transfer Your PC Deluxe includes Detto's
award-winning IntelliMover®
PC migration software. With this significant
gain in the retail channel combined with
its dominance of the OEM market, Detto
Technologies has increased its leadership
position in the consumer migration marketplace.
"Nova
introduced us to the retail channel with
the first retail migration suite to fill
a market need not currently filled by
our competitors' products," said
Larry Mana'o, CEO of Detto Technologies.
"Their expertise and distribution
speaks for itself, and we are delighted
at how quickly we have captured such a
large portion of the consumer migration
retail market share."
Finding
the Right Retail Model
After
noting Detto's position as the #1 consumer
migration solution selling through OEMs,
Nova Development approached Detto about
distributing a retail version of IntelliMover.
Nova currently has more than 30 software
products in widespread retail distribution
in North America.
"Detto
Technologies' success with its distribution
through Apple, Dell, HP and Gateway was
a critical factor to enable Nova to quickly
launch and gain a strong foothold in the
retail channel," said Roger Bloxberg,
CEO of Nova Development. "It was
clear that there would be strong market
demand by consumers for this product.
We are pleased with Transfer Your PC Deluxe's
position, this soon after the launch into
retail."
