Software company Novell has chosen AppLabs’ India based centre to be a lead Novell Authorized Testing Centre (NATC) and provide SUSE Linux and Novell NetWare YES certification testing in the country.

According to Novell, the relationship between Novell and AppLabs will provide significant access to all hardware and software vendors in India who desire to get their products certified for compatibility with Novell products.
