Westborough, MA - August 8, 2001: Mangosoft Inc. (OTC: BB: MGOF), a developer of Internet enabling
software solutions, today launched a worldwide channel sales program for its Mangomind Internet File Sharing
Service. Concurrently, Mangosoft announced that it has signed Savvy Networks, a metropolitan New York-based

and Virtual Private Network (VPN) product offerings with the secure, hosted Mangomind Internet business file
sharing and online storage service.
Mangosoft's new worldwide sales channel program for Mangomind will be comprised of value-added resellers (VARs),
Internet Service Providers (ISPs), independent software vendors (ISVs), and other solution providers with proven
expertise in deploying Internet- and intranet-based solutions for small to medium size businesses. Savvy Networks
is the first to join Mangosoft's emerging distribution channel.

service offerings and quickly extend them to our customers," said Chris Fury, president of Savvy Networks.

access and collaboration outside the traditional bounds of a corporate network. Mangomind creates a secure,
virtual office environment where our customers can continue to conduct business regardless of their physical location."
"We are pleased that Savvy has signed on as a solutions partner," said Doug Edwards, Mangosoft's vice-president
of sales. "Mangomind is a natural extension to their current Internet business service offerings and can be
deployed immediately. With partners like Savvy, we believe that we can rapidly address the communication and
collaboration needs of the growingly mobile business community."

remote colleagues, partners, and others outside the corporate firewall and who require remote file access.
