VERO BEACH, FL - July 22, 2008 - SpectorSoft Corporation (www.SpectorSoft.com), the worldwide leader in Internet Monitoring and Surveillance Software, announced it has been selected by Everything Channel as a CRN Emerging Tech Vendor.

CRN's Emerging Tech Vendor list captures companies that are delivering solution providers a product and relationship marked by innovative and easy-to-use technology that undercuts industry giants.

In making the Emerging Tech Vendor list, published in the June 30, 2008 print and online issues of CRN, SpectorSoft continues to distinguish itself as a formidable, growing force in the world of computer software and information technology. The Emerging Tech Vendor listing comes on the heels of SpectorSoft monitoring technology becoming a THREE-TIME PC Magazine Editors' choice award winner. The latest Editors' Choice award was announced in a June 2008 PC Magazine review.

According to the CRN Emerging Tech Vendor survey, the top reasons solution providers add emerging technologies include: the technology is superior to other products in the market segment; the technology complements a solution providers' existing practice areas; emerging vendors provide better services opportunities; emerging vendors pay better attention to partners; emerging vendors offer successful pricing models; customers want alternative product choices; and emerging vendors have better joint marketing programs.

"New and innovative vendor partners can help spur profitable new ideas that Solution Providers can use to build revenue and customer loyalty, and the CRN Emerging Tech list is where Solution Providers go to find these vendors," said Robert C. Demarzo, senior vice president and editorial director, Everything Channel editorial.

Vendors who make the CRN Emerging Tech Vendor list must have an established solution provider program and formal guidelines for recruiting channel partners. They must demonstrate that its direct sales mix is trending down as evidenced by the company's revenue history, and a channel-positive or channel-neutral strategy for internal sales compensation. Final selection to the Emerging Technology Vendor list was made at the discretion of the CRN editorial team after a review of the submitted information and conversations with current or targeted partners.
