Meyer Protects With Asigra

TORONTO -- AsigraT, the technology leader in agentless backup and recovery software for service providers targeting the growing managed storage services market, today announced that managed services provider, Stack Computer Solutions Limited, has deployed Asigra's agentless distributed backup and recovery software, TelevaultingT, to provide an all-encompassing solution for Meyer Group to protect its entire array of company data online and offsite. Asigra Televaulting is also protecting the data generated from remote laptop users connected to the company's network.Meyer Group is a market leader in gourmet cookware and kitchenware.

Prior to employing the services of Stack, Meyer Group was using a Veritas tape-based backup solution. Switching to disk-to-disk from tape was essential for Meyer Group to ensure all the company data was backed up in a single solution, as well as to increase the speed of the backup and recovery and guarantee a 100% success rate in retrieving lost data. Meyer Group also wanted emails to be included in the backups, so they didn't have to be backed up on a per PC basis, as with the previous solution. It was also important for Meyer Group to be able to restore data at the message level, which Stack could provide, using Asigra Televaulting's MLR (Message LevelRestore) feature.

"We wanted to ensure that all of our data was stored securely offsite and in one place, from which it could be easily and quickly retrieved if necessary," said David Cross, IT Manager for Meyer Group. "The Asigra software that Stack presented us matched our requirements and exceeded them by far. The service facilitates all of the platforms we use and it includes our remote users to substantially decrease our backup and restore times. We also have peace of mind with the Stack service because the data can't be lost or stolen, unlike tape-based solutions."
