Asigra Joins EMC NAS PARTNER PROGRAM
London – 8th February 2005 – Asigra , the technology specialist in multi-site backup and recovery software for network computing, today announced that it has joined the EMC NAS Partner Program. Now geographically dispersed enterprises implementing NAS will have access to proven multi-site data protection featuring grid-based performance and capacity scaling, utility service provisioning and agentless architecture. Asigra and EMC now share a joint customer support agreement to ensure cooperative support, joint escalation procedures and rapid response for mutual customers. “Through Asigra’s participation in the EMC NAS Partner Program, each company is able to provide higher levels of customer service and support,” said Tom Joyce, Senior Director of Platform Marketing at EMC. “We look forward to working with Asigra to ensure that our mutual customers have a positive experience.” “We believe that becoming an EMC NAS partner will have positive implications for customers looking to install a joint multi-site data backup and recovery solution without the pain points and bottlenecks that many heterogeneous installations can create,” said Eran Farajun, Asigra Executive Vice President. “Our participation will not only benefit our corporate users, but it also will prove to be a boon to resellers and service providers who wish to offer such a solution to their customers.” “As a provider of secure, cost-effective and scalable data backup and restore services, we understand the need for state-of-the-art joint solutions that will enable us to continue providing our customers with off site protection of their mission-critical information,” said Stacy Hayes, Vice President of Operations and Business Development of DS3 DataVaulting. “We presently use a configuration of Asigra software to backup more than 150 terabytes of customer data over the WAN to an EMC storage infrastructure. Knowing that Asigra has entered the EMC NAS Partner program gives us added confidence in the solutions we are able to offer our clients.” Asigra eliminates many backup pain points through technology that is designed for enterprise-wide centralisation, built from the ground up to perform on a global level. It is tested and certified compatible by leading infrastructure providers not to take the place of data centre backup software, but complement it for multi-site backup and recovery. Business benefits that differentiate Asigra’s offering from other backup solutions include true regulatory compliance, reduction in worldwide IT management expenditures, and compounded reduction of both hardware/software capital and enterprise-wide license costs. Asigra also offers a “pay-as-you-grow” compressed-capacity-based licensing model, allowing users to pay only for storage under management. The initial implementation capacity is based on the amount of compressed data to protect. After that, customers are charged per compressed terabyte of additional storage.
