Southborough, Mass. - April 17, 2007 - To better serve its growing customer base and distributors, Double-Take® Software (NASDAQ: DBTK), today announced the expansion of its Asia/Pacific (APAC) presence by appointing industry veteran, Caddy Tan, as Regional Sales Manager for APAC. In this role, Tan will be responsible for sales, marketing and business development. By increasing its footprint in APAC, Double-Take Software will provide local organizations with increased potential to deploy affordable disaster recovery and business continuity solutions to the region.

"Based on our success in the Asian market including Australia, Japan and Singapore, China was the next step in a natural progression of our growth," said Dean Goodermote, president, CEO, & Chairman of the Board of Directors, Double-Take Software. "With our solid foundation in Asia, the addition of Caddy brings us a stronger presence in SE Asia and China, which is an integral part of our global strategy."

Double-Take Software recently teamed up with Just One World, an organization that provides management consulting services to SMEs in China. In less than 6 months, Just One World has teamed up with more than 30 partners to expand the visibility of solutions from Double-Take Software.

"Double-Take Software has a solid reputation of delivering disaster recovery solutions to its customers in the US, Japan, SE Asia, Australia, and EMEA," said Michael Wu, principal consultant, Just One World. "We believe this dedication will translate to the Asian market and be an asset to any company looking to easily recover their data, should an unforeseen disaster occur."

Most recently, Double-Take Software and Just One World partnered for a series of educational seminars in China to demonstrate Double-Take and share guidelines on how companies can implement better disaster recovery plans.

"We are very excited to support the world-leading data replication software vendor - Double-Take Software," said David Lee, Country Manager, SilverShine Technology. "With its superior features, the company will definitely exceed the expectation of the customers in China. By working with Double-Take Software, this will strengthen our position and accelerate our business growth in this region."

As Regional Sales Manager, Tan brings more than 13 years of industry experience in information management, and regional sales and services, having worked at EMC Software Group and Legato Systems, prior to its acquisition by EMC. During that time, he vastly expanded Legato's presence and market position in the APAC region through channel and alliance partners.

"Joining Double-Take Software was an easy decision for me," said Tan. "No other company can rival its technology and customer service for data recovery solutions."

This expansion represents another milestone for Double-Take Software, which acquired Sunbelt System Software in May 2006, increasing the company's presence in EMEA.
