, June 30, 2004 - Miller Systems, one of Boston’s premier technology consulting firms specializing in the design and development of elegant online user experiences, today announced an updated web presence for Acopia Networks, Inc., a developer of unique Adaptive Resource Networking products. Miller Systems worked with the Acopia Networks’ marketing team to update the website in support of the company’s formal introduction and the launch of its new ARX6000 and ARX1000 high performance switching platforms. The updated website continues to reflect brand-level messages and leverage Miller Systems’ powerful dataDriver Secure Portal tool for secure, affordable, third party access to proprietary content, files, and links.

“Miller Systems’ commitment to thoughtful information architecture plays a key role in the success of our online presence. Clearly understanding our requirements, Miller Systems teamed with us to develop a framework that would scale over time,” said Brendon Howe, Vice President Marketing and Business Development, Acopia Networks, Inc.
 
Founded in January 2002, Acopia Networks has pioneered a new class of product, the Adaptive Resource Switch, that enables enterprises to globally access, manage and optimize unstructured data while better utilizing their existing server and storage infrastructures. With the formal company and product launch planned and increased clarity about evolving market and application opportunities, Acopia Networks turned to Miller Systems to update its site architecture and provide fresh design perspective. Having designed and developed a version of Acopia’s site less than a year ago, Miller Systems was well versed in the company’s requirements and was able to complete the project in less than one month, ensuring Acopia would meet its launch deadlines. Additionally, Miller Systems continued to support Acopia with its dataDriver Secure Portal for fast, easy and secure access to proprietary content, files, and links for qualified customers, prospects and system integration partners seeking to work with Acopia to deploy their revolutionary solutions.

Miller Systems’ dataDriver Secure Portal offers partners, customers, and other trusted third parties with access to proprietary information like software updates, documentation, and release notes, using a rules-based, easily configured security policy. Miller Systems’ affordable, browser-based solution allows companies like Acopia to keep critical content organized, and makes the process of updating it simple and quick. dataDriver Secure Portal requires no system administration expertise or ACL management in the web server.
 
“Our client/vendor communication with Acopia Networks represents an ideal working relationship,” said Seth Miller, Founder, President and CEO of Miller Systems, Inc. “Leveraging our proven approach to design and information architecture, we’ve been able to partner with Acopia successfully to meet their evolving needs, from startup to market leader.”
