| “Here’s the key: If you take your eye off the performance ball, we go backwards… so it’s important not just to provide the telemetry, not just measure it, but to be absolutely obsessive about watching it and making sure it’s doing what it needs to do… We keep track of 300 – 400 metrics that are most important…[Evident] ClearStone helps us manage and visualize, alert and trend not only the (data) grid, but these other metrics.“ |

| "Evident's technology has helped us to more effectively track and manage spending growth by reducing IT consumption and create more efficient traffic patterns...

|
| "Evident has enabled us to influence the manner in which developers architect applications; where they locate servers with relation to users; the scheduling of non-time critical processes; and other practices that have already significantly reduced network congestion, and improved the quality of service the network is offering. Our users are much more content with the IT service being provided." |

| "Evident's scalability and flexibility to identify and rate a network as extensive as ours were critical factors in our selection of their solution. Furthermore, the Evident's technology will enable BT to accurately forecast bandwidth expenditures as well as improve network usage, services and applications." |

| "By tracking and generating billing for Fidelity's WAN consumption across approximately 7,000 subnet's and 1,200 departments - by a range of key attributes such as protocols, applications and data volumes - Evident has considerably improved our ability to control costs and use of network resources. We've identified and are working with our business units to set usage policies and correct factors that have caused us to burn through ever-increasing amounts of bandwidth, from unnecessarily 'bandwidth hungry' applications to sub-optimal server placements. As a result, we expect to save considerable expense over the next few years, and more importantly, we now have a practical means of factoring the telecommunications infrastructure costs into our enterprise systems architectural planning." |

| "Evident's solution offers us the most effective means of managing our consumption and reducing our network cost – this is an initiative which is visible at our CEO and CFO level." |

|
| "Evident is creating an important and entirely new class of solutions that will provide organizations with an unprecedented ability to assess and control the costs and consumption of IT resources. Evident provides an urgently needed capability because many IT infrastructures have evolved in an information void. Enterprises have little understanding of how usage patterns and other related factors cause network bandwidth costs to spiral, while information availability degrades. By quantifying these consumption patterns and factors, Evident will bridge the information gap between IT management and business users, enabling organizations to redefine the economics and efficiency of their networked applications." |
