FileWave, developer for software management tools on Windows and Mac OS X systems, announced an important expansion of its multi-platform software
management suite FileWave: in the course of 2007, the components FileWave Server and FileWave Booster will for the first time be made available for systems based on Linux and Windows.
FileWave Admin will also be made available for Windows. In addition, the company is developing the FileWave Client for Linux. Originally a program designed exclusively for Macintosh, FileWave supports the installation and configuration of software on Windows clients. But the administrative components have previously always required Mac OS X as an operating system.
"Where Apple Macintosh is concerned, FileWave offers unique functionality and speed during the distribution and installation of software even in large networks with several thousand clients," explains Ben Forsyth, CEO and Head of Development at FileWave USA. "The porting of FileWave on Windows and Linux makes our technology available for additional platforms -- FileWave will consequently become a cross-platform solution for software distribution and asset management in the future."
