SafeData Doubles Revenues in Rapidly Growing Backup and Data Recovery Market |
 |
| Warwick, R.I. – March 14, 2007 – SafeData, LLC, a technology company focused on helping companies protect their data, minimize
downtime and recover and restore data quickly, today announced that it has experienced significant growth, doubling its business in the past year.
SafeData attributes its success to the robustness of its data recovery and high availability product offerings and as a result of the significant
growth in market demand. |
|
| IDC estimates that companies lose an average of $84,000 for every hour of downtime. Combine that estimate with the US Bureau of Labor's statistic
that 93 percent of all companies that experience 'significant data loss' are out of business within five years, and there is no surprise that the backup
and recovery market is growing at a significant rate. |
|
| "We came into the market at the right time," said Peter Briggs, president of SafeData. "We were able to build cost-effective, reliable solutions and
grow a solid base of clients when the market was in its infancy. Now, we are riding the wave as more companies are realizing the need to protect their data
during both planned system downtime and in the event of a disaster. We see 2007 as a year of continued growth for SafeData." |
|
| Three of SafeData's most recent clients include: Colibri Group, Perkins, Inc. and Volex Group. Colibri, the leader in lighter technology, selected SafeData's
disaster recovery solution, SafeData/DR. Volex, a leading independent supplier of electrical, electronic and optical fiber cable assemblies, has also implemented
SafeData/DR, as well as SafeData/HS (hot site). Perkins, one of New England's largest independent wholesale distributors of foodservice and sanitary supplies, chose
SafeData's high availability solution, SafeData/HA, to meet its specific data protection needs. |
|
| Combining best-of-breed technologies from the industry's leading developers, SafeData/HA is a cost-effective high availability solution for an organization's most
critical systems. Using industry-leading replication technologies, SafeData creates and maintains a mirror of its clients' systems in its data centers. During either
planned or unplanned downtime, SafeData/HA is a high availability service that provides a switchable "mirror" of a company's data and applications guaranteeing continuity in
two hours or less. |
|
| SafeData/DR is a cost-effective, subscription-based data protection service. Using leading-edge electronic vaulting technologies, SafeData/DR identifies and backs up only
incremental changes to data delivering access to data within hours. This approach is faster, more efficient and more cost-effective than traditional methods. To take it a step
further, SafeData/DR also performs a disk-to-disk restore of the data to a standby server at SafeData's two data centers, enabling clients to restore and recover their systems and
data in 10 hours or less. |
