Absolute Software – now protecting over one million laptops

Absolute Software has now surpassed one million customer subscriptions!

Absolute Software yesterday announced that, as of February 28th, it has surpassed one million active customer subscriptions. Thanks to all our customers who have trusted Absolute to protect and recover their laptops since 1993.

What’s the next goal? 3 million customer subscriptions by June 30, 2009. Here is what John Livingston, our CEO, has to say about the next goal:

"On the heels of our recent OEM agreements, strong growth in all our market segments, growing data privacy concerns, and embedded BIOS support in more than 30 million laptops shipped annually worldwide – we believe we are positioned to achieve this new three million customer subscription goal.”

One million laptops are currently protected by Absolute Software. And here’s a fact: the average theft rate for computers in corporations is 3.5% to 5%. With Computrace, the theft rate drops to 0.5%. There’s even a guarantee if you use Absolute’s flagship ComputraceComplete product.
