DROITWICH, England, April 21 /PRNewswire/ --

Ericom announced today that the London-based charity United Bible Society
(UBS) has selected PowerTerm WebConnect to provide secure remote application
access.

Ericom's PowerTerm WebConnect RemoteView is recognised by many as the
leading Citrix alternative solution providing secure access at a
significantly lower cost than the alternatives.

The United Bible Societies (UBS) is a fellowship of 145 national Bible
Societies that serves across 200 countries and territories. The United Bible
Society is a non-profit organisation devoted to translating, publishing, and
distributing the Bible at affordable costs. In addition the society extends
its charitable work to include literacy programs for those who cannot read,
audio products for those who are visually impaired, and Bible-based HIV/AIDS
resources for those who are suffering and their carers. Special programs are
developed for those with challenges such as women facing abuse, children
living without parents and people in prison.

Ericom Managing Director for the UK, Ian Platt, commented, "With the
current economic conditions putting additional strains on discretionary
spending, the charity sector is feeling significant pressure to ensure costs
are reduced wherever possible. At a 1/3 of the cost of Citrix we have
established ourselves as the #1 Citrix alternative. I am glad we can help the
charity sector save money, so that they have more money for their front line
activities."
