*Novell NetWare 6 named Best Networking Software and Novell ZENworks for
Desktops 3.2 chosen Best Enterprise Software at Fall COMDEX
*Novell is only vendor with multiple products selected as Best of COMDEX
*Awards come on heels of ZENworks for Desktops' Network World Readers'

PROVO, Utah - Nov. 20, 2001 - Novell, Inc., a leader in eBusiness
solutions and Net services software, today announced that two Novell
products were named "Best of COMDEX" at COMDEX Fall 2001 in Las Vegas.
Novell NetWare 6 was named Best Networking Software, and Novell ZENworks
for Desktops 3.2 was chosen Best Enterprise Software. The award winners
were selected by editors of CIO, Computerworld, InfoWorld, Network World
and PC World magazines for their technical innovation and impact on
customers' business. Novell is the only vendor to have multiple products
chosen as Best of COMDEX.
These awards are part of a series of recent honors for Novell Net
services software, including ZENworks for Desktops' Network World
Readers' Choice Award 2001 for best desktop management software and
NetWare 6's Award for Technical Excellence from PC Magazine for best
networking product of the year.
"It's extremely gratifying to see Novell products continually identified
by the media, customers and industry analysts as being the top solutions
that meet customers' business needs today," said Craig Miller, vice
president and general manager of Novell's Net Management business unit.
"While NetWare 6 delivers anytime, anywhere access to information from
various network platforms, desktop operating systems and wireless
devices, ZENworks is reducing the time and costs associated with
managing workstations from birth to retirement. We are giving our
customers the market's top technology to help them effectively compete
and deliver top products and services of their own."
ZENworks for Desktops 3.2 is the latest version of the most widely
deployed directory-enabled desktop management solution on the market.
ZENworks simplifies network administration by leveraging eDirectory* to
automate and streamline software distribution and repair, desktop
configuration, remote management, and workstation operating system
imaging. ZENworks for Desktops operates across network operating
systems, including NetWare and Windows NT/2000, managing Windows
workstations on networks as one Net. Giga Information Group recently
named ZENworks the top desktop management tool on the market, and a
recent IDC white paper reported ZENworks gave customers a payback time
of less than three months and an average three-year return on investment
of 2,039 percent.
Net services provided by NetWare 6 include Novell iFolder, which lets
users securely access and synchronize their files, anywhere in the
world, across all types of networks and on any Internet-enabled machine.
iPrint makes Internet printing a reality by allowing customers to use a
simple Web browser to find and install a printer and securely print with
the click of a mouse, so there are no location restraints on either the
user or the printer. In addition, NetWare WebAccess provides user access
via a Web browser to files, printers, e-mail, calendar, corporate
address book, etc., all through a customizable portal. NetWare 6 also
allows Windows, Macintosh, UNIX, Linux and Web-based client workstations
to connect and store files and data on NetWare servers without any
Novell client software on the workstation.
