Leading SPs Choose Asigra

TORONTO -- AsigraT, the technology leader in agentless backup and recovery software for service providers targeting the growing managed storage services market, today announced growing traction of the Asigra backup and archive platform as managed backup service leaders continue to transition from rival solutions to ensure greater scalability, billing flexibility, reliability, profitability, and to avoid commercial conflicts of interest.

In deploying the Asigra TelevaultingT backup, archive and recovery solution, CoreVault, AllConnected, More Group, Diversified Disaster Recovery Services, Horry Telephone Cooperative (HTC) and Data Storage Corporation join HP Business Continuity Services, Bell Canada Business Solutions, AmeriVault,DS3 DataVaulting, VaultLogix, Terian, NetMass, NetStandard, and many other successful managed service providers (MSPs) in delivering award-winning data protection to small, medium and large enterprises. Many other MSPs are moving toward Asigra adoption because of increased scalability, greater security and higher profitability with no channel conflicts. Offerings from companies such as Seagate|eVault, EMC|Avamar, and Iron Mountain|LiveVault fall short in these and other important commercial areas where a comprehensive offering is required.

According to the Gartner Worldwide Storage Services forecast, the managed storage service industry is expected to undergo rapid growth as corporations pursue simplified and centralized IT infrastructures that ensure business continuity and regulatory compliance. Increasingly complex storage systems and growing IT assets located in public and private data centers are expected to spur a growth for storage services through 2008, bringing the worldwide opportunity to nearly $30 billion.

"Organizations seeking storage infrastructure automation have found it difficult to implement a premises-based remote and branch office data protection platform. With fewer resources at their disposal, IT administrators are challenged with increasing requirements to make the distributed environment more compliant, efficient and safe," explained Paul Myerson, Senior Channel Analyst for The Enterprise Strategy Group, a leading industry analyst firm focused on storage and information management.

"Asigra's agentless solution is built from the ground up for service provisioning and provides a hands free approach. Managed service providers targeting this space are improving their bottom lines with Asigra by helping organizations reduce their operational and capital expenditures with a time tested solution," said Myerson.Asigra Inc.
