15 November 2006 – Ottawa, Ontario, Canada – The fight against spam just got easier for small and medium businesses as Roaring Penguin Software Inc. announced the release of the CanIt-SMB appliance - an anti-spam solution designed specifically for organizations with 10 to 100 employees.

“We've found that Small and Medium Businesses are looking for a plug and play appliance solution to the spam problem that would not break the bank which is why we've introduced CanIt-SMB appliance.”, said David Skoll , President of Roaring Penguin Software.

Offering per-user or per-group anti-spam settings and quarantines, an intuitive simple end-user interface, graphical reporting tools and automatic updates, CanIt-SMB can be tailored to meet diverse technical, corporate policy, or industry-specific e-mail filtering requirements without complex administration.

“Having a small number of e-mail users shouldn't mean that you have to run a one-size-fits all anti-spam solution,” added Skoll. “Small companies want to focus on their business – not on fighting spam. Our goal was to develop an anti-spam solution that was customizable, yet easy to setup and maintain, and one that would fit a small company budget. With CanIt-SMB, small organizations can now enjoy anti spam protection and options previously only available to large enterprises.”

CanIt-SMB is available as a pre-configured plug-and-play appliance. It is built on an AMD Sempron 2600 with 512 MB RAM and a 40 GB HD. The CanIt-SMB Appliance comes with a 3 year warranty and a 1 year subscription to the Roaring Penguin Training Network (RPTN) which provides automatic updates for the appliance.

The CanIt-SMB appliance is rated at 50,000 e-mails per day and comes with a license for up to 250 100 users.

CanIt-SMB appliance is priced at $995

CanIt-SMB is the industry's most complete and flexible anti-spam and anti-virus solution for small to medium-sized organizations, combining administrative customizability with ease of installation and administration.
