SUNNYVALE, Calif., June 21, 2004 – Ensim Corporation, the global leader in hosting automation software, today announced that Ensim Power Tools, an add-on product to Ensim’s control panels for Linux, is now available at no charge. Ensim Power Tools enables hosting service providers (HSPs) and their customers to automatically install and configure 15 of today’s most popular, interactive Web applications for creating rich and dynamic Web sites. HSPs can offer specialized, value-added hosting plans for increased revenue per customer.

“With Ensim Power Tools, we have far exceeded our customers’ requests to provide them with easy-to-use applications for creating more sophisticated Web sites,” said Tom Fosbenner, president and CEO of Vegas Hosting, LLC. “Now that the product is free, Ensim is clearly offering the most feature rich, rightly priced control panels on the market.”

Now, they have more power to deliver a more complete offering, resulting in more profits and more revenues.”

A free Ensim Power Tools license is now provided with every new purchase of Ensim Pro or Ensim Basic, both on the Linux platform. Existing Ensim Pro and Ensim Basic customers can request their free copy of Ensim Power Tools via the Ensim Storefront located on the Company’s Web site at https://buy.ensim.com/.

About Ensim Power Tools
Ensim Power Tools lets HSPs and their customers automatically install and configure popular Web applications without the technical expertise typically required to deploy these Web scripts. The product supports Web applications that provide an easy way for customers to integrate rich and dynamic content into their Web sites. In addition, Ensim Power Tools runs seamlessly with Ensim Pro and Ensim Basic, providing complete security for all Web sites. Many Web applications require HSPs to disable security features like PHP safe_mode, which exposes Web site contents to other users on a shared server. Only Ensim control panels restricts users to their own Web sites, providing a safe environment in which to offer the many Web applications supported by Ensim Power Tools.

The 15 Web applications included are:
