COLLECTIVE TECHNOLOGIES LAUNCHES SECOND SEMINAR SERIES ON MICROSOFT EXCHANGE SERVER 2007

Multi-city Series to Focus on Migration and Performance Optimization

Austin, TX, March 27, 2007 - Collective Technologies, an IT infrastructure solutions provider, announced today the launch of their second multi-city seminar series focused on Microsoft Exchange Server 2007 solutions. The seminar series will include programs in Southern California, Texas, and Atlanta during the months of March and April, and will focus on migrating to Exchange Server 2007. Topics to be covered during the seminar include the new features of Exchange Server 2007, the technical considerations for migration, and performance optimization in a 64-bit environment.

"This is the second series of events that Collective Technologies has delivered around Exchange Server 2007," said Jennifer Bogdalek, Director Managed NSI, Microsoft Corporation. "Having a Microsoft National Systems Integrator of Collective's caliber presenting on the considerations for a successful implementation of Exchange Server 2007 is of great value to our customers."

Collective Technologies has a deep bench of consultants with direct knowledge of Exchange Server 2007 migration, implementation, and optimization. Collective's value proposition is unique in that very few solutions providers can design, implement, and maintain comprehensive information infrastructures for their customers.

"Based on the success of our previous Exchange Server 2007 seminar series on disaster recovery, this new seminar series seemed the next logical step," stated Ed Taylor, CEO, Collective Technologies. "Thanks to support from Microsoft, who provided the facilities for both sets of seminars, we were able to fill nearly every venue to capacity. This just proves the strong demand to learn more about Exchange Server 2007 management, protection, and optimization."
