NetLedger is the leading ASP to provide online accounting and business management applications for small businesses.

"Network Appliance's success stems from our ability to address and service our customers needs," said Mark Santora, senior vice president of marketing at Network Appliance. "NetLedger, like most of our customers, requires a powerful and scalable storage infrastructure enabling reliable access to vital business and financial data. We were thrilled when NetLedger chose to standardize on NetApp F760 filers, and we are honored to receive the award from DM Review."

"Providing solutions for the management of and access to data is critical to NetLedger's core business function. This requires significant investments into next- generation storage solutions," said David Durkee, CIO of NetLedger, Inc. "The Network Appliance storage infrastructure delivers true reliability and scalability in a mission- critical environment, and enables us to deliver exceptional performance and service to our customers."

DM Review, rated the number-one business intelligence and data warehousing magazine in the United States, searched for solutions to problems based strictly on technology, not just products.

"Since 1996 DM Review has presented World Class Solution Awards to the leading providers of business intelligence and data warehousing solutions," said Ron Powell, publisher/editorial director of DM Review. "These world class solutions demonstrate how technology enables strategic corporate decision making for competitive advantage."
