Boston, MA, December 06, 2009 — Brainloop, the leading supplier of software solutions for high-security management of confidential documents (www.brainloop.com), today announced the company’s most recent coverage by a top-tier analyst firm. Titled “Trusted SaaS Offerings for Secure Collaboration” and written by Gartner, Inc. analysts Jay Heiser and David Gootzit (Report # ID G00164936), the report lists Brainloop among the vendors with SaaS and collaboration products that “offer the highest levels of trust based on support tasks with specific regulatory requirements for privacy, confidentiality and integrity.”

Brainloop is specifically listed as one of the vendors that provide support for mergers, acquisitions (M&A), and other investment banking activity. Gartner also notes that Brainloop’s data center is compliant with ISO/IEC 27001.

“We believe the reference to Brainloop within this Gartner report provides evidence that our customers find our service to be trustworthy, which is a key differentiator in the SaaS secure document sharing market,” said Brainloop Inc. President Uli Mittermaier. “Our customers realize that our services provide a higher level of security than they are able to provide in-house. We also make it possible to collaborate on confidential documents for such things as biotech drug licensing, project collaboration and project finance as well as M&A due diligence and other applications that need to support document security compliance.”

Earlier this year, Brainloop was included in an April 2009 Forrester Research report, titled “Market Overview: The M&A Management Tools Market in 2009.” This report by Forrester analyst Daniel Krauss, with Jonathan Penn and Charles Green, includes Brainloop among virtual data room (VDR) vendors, a category that replaces traditional paper-based deal rooms for M&A transactions. Forrester attributes the rapid growth of VDR providers to the unique services and benefits they can provide.

With the sale for € 200 million of Lenbachgärten, a prestigious Munich office and hotel complex, the Austrian property company Immofinanz AG has finalized one of Germany’s biggest real estate transactions in the Brainloop Secure Dataroom.

Munich, Germany, November 27, 2009 — With the sale for € 200 million of Lenbachgärten, a prestigious Munich office and hotel complex, the Austrian property company Immofinanz AG has finalized one of Germany’s biggest real estate transactions in the Brainloop Secure Dataroom. Immofinanz used the web-based SaaS solution, which enables companies to quickly and securely share confidential documents, to collect and store all of the necessary information from the buyer and seller sides. The data room service was provided by the Austrian company EHL Immobilien, which organized and managed the property sale.

A total of four data rooms were set up for this highly complex transaction. One was provided for the five-star hotel The Charles, and one for each of the two office buildings that are a part of the complex. A further overarching data room was used for the corporate legal documents relating to the whole group of buildings. The building-specific data safes contained technical documents such as construction plans, tax-related information, rental agreements, and contracts with service companies. Over 45 users accessed the documents during the due diligence phase, while end-to-end security and document confidentiality were given the highest priority at all times. The documents could only be downloaded if they included a watermark. This made it clear which users were in possession of the confidential data and ensured the documents could not be forwarded indiscriminately to other people.

Franz Pöltl, from EHL Investment Consulting, comments: “We provide our clients with the Brainloop Secure Dataroom as a service they can use to quickly and securely share documents during the due diligence phase. Having a centralized, web-based document safe for all information relevant to the sale – such as the multiple contractual obligations with suppliers, tenants, and shareholders – is very helpful to firms conducting complex real estate transactions. It significantly accelerates the whole sales process while ensuring efficient project execution.”

“From our perspective as the seller of this prime commercial property, we found the data room application easy to use,” adds Eduard Zehetner, CEO of Immofinanz. “The familiar Windows Explorer-like structure made it easy to organize and store all the documents that the buyers would need. Our goal was cash optimization from asset disposal in a limited timeframe and in difficult market conditions – and we achieved that with the help of the Brainloop Secure Dataroom.”
