GlobalSCAPE, Inc. (AMEX: GSB) a leading developer of file transfer software for the Internet, announced today that Gartner, Inc. has positioned GlobalSCAPE as a �Leader� in its Magic Quadrant for Managed File Transfer report. Gartner, Inc. (NYSE: IT) is the world�s leading information technology research and advisory company. This particular report helps companies evaluate Managed File Transfer (�MFT�) vendors based on their annual revenues, ability to execute, and completeness of vision. The quadrants include the definitions of Leaders, Challengers, Visionaries, and Niche Players. According to the report, �Leaders are the most likely to have high revenue and commitment to the market, high market share and installed bases, and products that are of interest to a large audience. Additionally, leaders have presented domain expertise and compelling messages that have penetrated the market.� According to Gartner, the demand for MFT products and services is approximately $450 million per year, and is growing at a rate of 21% to 26% year over year. Gartner arrives at this growth rate from their belief that it�s not just the overall market for MFT solutions that is growing at a healthy rate, but that the overall pool of enterprises needing MFT solutions is growing even faster. Kelly E. Simmons, CFO of GlobalSCAPE, said, �We are always pleased to be cited by Gartner in their reports. We are also enthusiastic that Gartner is highlighting the hosted large file services and email attachment offloading solutions. Gartner�s report is a strong validation of our recent introduction of CuteSendIt, our hosted big file transfer solution for email. Before the end of this year, we will also introduce a stand-alone file transfer software product for email servers. Our vision is to continue to make our secure file transfer technology available in many venues and in many languages, and the Gartner report helps to confirm this direction.� About the Magic Quadrant The Magic Quadrant is copyrighted June 23, 2008 by Gartner, Inc. and is reused with permission.
