Acronis, Inc., the technological leader in storage management
software, announced that Phoenix IT Services Ltd., one of the UK's
premiere providers of managed infrastructure services for partners
in the IT industry, has standardized on Acronis
True Image 8.0 for Windows, the latest version of Acronis'
award-winning disk
imaging, disaster recovery and bare-metal backup and restore
utility. The company plans to use the software to image
literally thousands of desktop systems.
The software allows for real-time image
creation, which not only reduces creation time, it also drastically
reduces restoration time in a disaster recovery situation. This provides a larger window
for recovery procedures and gets employees up and running in
hours not days.
"We use Acronis
True Image 8.0 to deploy an operating system to clients'
machines," said Andrew Carter, workshop quality team leader at
Phoenix. "Acronis
True Image 8.0 is much more time efficient and productive
than manually installing an operating system. Our partners and
their end-user demand a quick turn around of machines and these all
require software to be loaded before shipping."
"Acronis' channel partners work closely with
their customers to deliver world-class, customized servers and
desktop systems," said Max Tsypliaev, president of Acronis Inc.
"Ensuring data availability and maintaining peak system performance
were the Phoenix IT Services' key requirements, and Acronis True
Image Server exceeded these needs."
In addition to backup and
disaster recovery capabilities, Acronis True
Image also allows Phoenix IT Services to clone
disk drives. This is invaluable when expanding desktop
operations with the minimum of configuration time.
Financial terms of the agreement were not
released.
