MaGlobe, Inc. Recognized as 2002 Frost & Sullivan Market Engineering Award Recipient for Product Service Innovation in U.S. Prepaid Internet Services Market

Frost & Sullivan believes that MaGlobe's ability to be everything to everyone in the prepaid Internet market will enforce its status as a market leader, not only abroad, but also in the growing U.S. prepaid Internet market.

SUNNYVALE, Calif., Oct. 17 - MaGlobe, Inc., the leading provider of prepaid global dialup Internet access services, has earned the 2002 Frost & Sullivan Market Engineering Award for Product Service Innovation. Per the recently issued report, "Frost & Sullivan believes that MaGlobe's ability to be everything to everyone in the prepaid Internet market will enforce its status as a market leader, not only abroad, but also in the growing U.S. prepaid Internet market."

Shortly after the U.S. Prepaid Internet Services Market report was issued by Frost & Sullivan, MaGlobe launched its new Enterprise Premium service for small and medium-sized businesses that provides global dialup Internet access for up to 100 individual users. MaGlobe is the first Internet service provider (ISP) in the world to offer prepaid global Internet access to enterprise accounts with multiple users, or seats.

Mahesh Hinduja, chief executive officer for MaGlobe, Inc., states, "We already have a very established customer base for our prepaid global dialup Internet access services and we have added the Enterprise Premium service based on demand from our existing clients. While we have previously offered Enterprise services for from one to ten users, we are seeing strong demand for our high quality services for up to 100 users."

The company offers convenient, reliable, and value priced global dialup Internet access services in over 100 countries for individuals and small and medium-sized businesses. Additionally, MaGlobe provides toll free "800" access numbers in the lower 48 states of the United States, Canada, Puerto Rico, Alaska, and Hawaii. Customers sign up for an account online and have a full year to use the "pay as you go" services which are billed at pre-defined hourly rates. Package prices start at $14.99 and scale all the way to $2,499.99 depending on the needs of the customer.

Victor A. De La Cruz, Program Leader for Prepaid and Operator Services at Frost & Sullivan, had this to say about the service. "The MaGlobe service is perfect for small businesses that have mobile workers traveling around the US and the world. The big telecoms do not properly serve small businesses and MaGlobe fills the gap. In fact, not only do they provide great services, but the pricing is better than many larger companies and Fortune 1000's can get from AT&T and Sprint."
