Rimini Street Will Vigorously Respond to Oracle Complaint

“Enterprise software customers, like in any truly competitive market,
deserve the right to have a choice of support options and vendors,” said
Seth Ravin, president and CEO, Rimini Street. “I believe Oracle’s
actions are an attempt to forestall competition and limit market choices
for its software licensees. Rimini Street offers valuable support
options at more than a 50 percent savings compared to Oracle. Rimini
Street’s services are enjoyed by hundreds of clients around the world,
including Global and Fortune 500 organizations, many government
agencies, and small businesses trying to grow and hire new employees in
these difficult economic times. Rimini Street has been a leader in
fighting for customer choice and options, and we will continue to do so.”
