As you know, were host-based versus storage-based -- now we can be both, explained Goodermote, in response to an analysts question, adding that Double-Take will sell three core emBoot technologies. The management console we will probably sell in the $4,000 range; a server target agent around the $400 range; then theres a desktop agent around $100.
The CEO explained that Toronto-based emBoot continues Double-Takes strategy of acquiring small vendors such as TimeSpring.
As we have discussed previously, we look to make small, technical tuck-in acquisitions, he explained. The ideal company is one that has excellent engineering talent with product that is not yet widely distributed.
With just five employees, including CEO and founder George Kostiuk, emBoot was generating revenues of less than $500,000 a year, according to Craig Huke, the Double-Take CFO.
"All of them will become employees of Double-Take Canada, he explained. As part of the acquisition, we have put into place a retention bonus plan in an effort to keep key developers with Double-Take."
