Wireless Infrastructure Leader Implements Latest Version to Standardize Global Business Processes and Support Rapid Growth

    REDWOOD SHORES, Calif., Oct. 1 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ --
    -- Meru Networks (http://www.merunetworks.com), a developer and marketer
       of wireless infrastructure solutions, has successfully implemented the
       Oracle(R) E-Business Suite Release 12 to standardize on best business
       practices in order to gain increased auditability, real-time visibility
       and transparency into its business operations, Oracle today announced.
    -- Implemented in 120 days, the Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12
       replaces multiple legacy systems to provide Meru Networks with
       integrated ERP capabilities that can support the company's growth.
    -- Today, Meru Networks has achieved many operational efficiencies and
       increased visibility into the entire requisition and approval process.
       With auditability of operations on a daily basis, Meru Networks is able
       to close its financial books efficiently and have an infrastructure in
       place to execute future regulatory compliance initiatives.

    Rapid Implementation Improves Day-to-Day Operations
    -- The initial deployment, focused on automating the entire order-to-cash
       cycle and procure to pay cycle, yielded improved processes for order
       management, accounting, shipping and purchasing across the entire
       company.
    -- The implementation is running on Meru Network's own wireless LAN
       infrastructure leveraging Oracle Database 10g, and utilizes the
       following modules: Oracle Order Management, Oracle Purchasing, Oracle
       iProcurement, Oracle Manufacturing and Oracle Business Intelligence for
       Supply Chain and Order Management.
    -- Led by Navisite, a Certified Advantage Partner in the Oracle
       PartnerNetwork, Meru Networks' implementation of the Oracle E-Business
       Suite Release 12 was completed on-time with very little customization,
       resulting in a scalable foundation for automating and integrating
       additional business functions.

    -- 'We needed an integrated ERP application infrastructure that would
       scale with our business growth and support our overall systems
       strategy,' said Meru Networks, Head of Information Technology, Sreeni

       been able to consolidate our disparate systems onto one platform.
       Oracle's high-tech industry expertise is impressive and we were able to

       on our own Meru Wireless Infrastructure.'
    -- 'We evaluated different ERP packages and talked to many companies
       during our investigation; the majority of companies like Meru were
       either using Oracle or moving to Oracle,' said Meru Networks' Keith
       Matasci VP of Operations. 'We wanted a complete package, no
       customizations required, and we had a very aggressive window for the
       implementation. The Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12 allowed us to
       start with a tier 1 product that will support Meru as we grow, but not
       be over burdening starting out. Oracle meets all our requirements.'
