San Francisco, CA – September 14, 1998 – Today, Athena Design announced that The Integer Spreadsheet Server has passed Novell’s "Yes Testing" and is approved as compatible with the NetWare 5 platform. Integer, the first real-time collaborative spreadsheet server, allows NetWare 5 users to share the same spreadsheet and see each other’s changes and updates in real-time while benefiting from the speed, scalability, and reliability of NetWare 5.
"We’re excited that The Integer Spreadsheet Server is one of the premier NetWare 5 certified applications," said Rich Running, Director of Marketing for NetWare. "Sharing spreadsheets in real-time across a network is yet another example of the power of IP networking. Integer allows groups to do real-time collaboration on budgets, portfolio management, and virtually anything else relating to numbers in the enterprise. NetWare 5 provides the fast, robust infrastructure which enables this functionality."
"NetWare 5 provides everything we need to run The Integer Spreadsheet Server," said David Pollak, President Athena Design. "NetWare 5’s fast Java Virtual Machine, IP networking, and solid performance make it a great platform for running Integer and other server-based Java applications. We’re stoked about receiving NetWare 5 certification and see a broad market for Integer on NetWare 5."
