QStar Healthcare Signs Grange as a Strategic Partner inItaly for the Distribution of their PACS Solutions


Milan, Italy - May 4, 2009 - QStar Technologies, Inc., a global leader in archiving and data protection, today announced that Grange Srl has become a new Italian distributor for the QStar Healthcare line of PACS (Picture Archiving and Communication System) solutions. Grange already has a well establish digital medical imaging portfolio from leading suppliers, and the new relationship with QStar expands their offering to provide a complete PACS solution. With offices throughout the country, Grange creates an excellent opportunity for QStar Healthcare to develop strong awareness of their SntryPAC product family across the Italian medical market.

"Grange is focused on bringing solutions to the small and medium sized medical market that address their unique technical requirements and their limited budgets." explained Mauro Bertola, CEO at Grange Srl. "In Italy there is a wide base of small hospitals, clinics, and private institutes with a strong demand for custom solutions. In this market, PACS systems from the larger players are simply too inflexible and costly. The QStar Healthcare products are ideally suited for these facilities. Working together, Grange and QStar will be able to offer professional PACS management and storage solutions sized to fit the needs of each customer."

"QStar is very pleased to be working with Grange because they know their market and their customers extremely well." commented Carlo Restelli, QStar's Regional Sales Director for Southern Europe. "The medical market can be complex, but with a focus on smaller facilities, Grange has been able to clearly differentiate their value proposition. SntryPACS provides these customers high end PACS functionality at a low entry price which can be cost-effectively expanded to meet their future needs. Our new partnership with Grange will allow us to gain a real competitive advantage in the rapidly growing market segment."
