"MIVA is excited to offer Plesk users an opportunity to quickly and easily build an online store," said James Harrell, Vice President and General Manager of MIVA Small Business. "As Plesk is a leading control panel for Windows and Linux, and SWsoft has a proven track record of performance, we expect this will be a long and productive relationship."

"MIVA has increased the simplicity and adoption for small- and medium-sized businesses to successfully growing their online stores," said Kurt Daniel, Vice President, marketing and alliances for SWsoft. "The addition of a leading e-commerce package like MIVA Merchant™ 5 and MIVA Merchant Fast™ Track will provide our customers a comprehensive solution including integrated credit card processing, advanced catalog, customer and order management systems."
