Video Game Manufacturer Standardizes on Acronis True Image Enterprise Server
June 28, 2005, South San Francisco, CA
Acronis, Inc., the technological leader in storage management
software, announced that Video Gaming Technologies (VGT), Inc., of
Roebuck, SC, is standardized on Acronis True Image
Enterprise Server for its disaster recovery, networked server backup and disk cloning
solutions. VGT is the manufacturer of computerized video games,
such as Las Vegas-style blackjack and video slot machines,
generally found in casinos.
"VGT needed a solution that could quickly and
accurately clone
servers for deployment to the field," said John Plunkett, the
information systems director at VGT. "We also were looking for a
backup and recovery solution
for our enterprise servers. We reviewed a number of other imaging
products, in addition to shareware and freeware alternatives.
Acronis was quick and worked without any flaws; it surpassed our
expectations.
"Acronis True Image Enterprise Server
meets all of our requirements and now resides on 10 of our 40
enterprise servers, including our mission-critical servers.," he
added. "We can now clone servers for deployment in a few hours,
rather than a few days. We also have peace of mind, knowing that
each server running the solution can be restored within hours, in
case of failure."
"Overcoming disaster recovery and disk cloning
bottlenecks, as well as providing world-class technology, service
and support, are the hallmarks of Acronis," said Max Tsypliaev, CEO
of the company. "Enterprise IT directors and chief information
offices know that Acronis stands for quality and works diligently
with its partners and customers to develop products that meet the
demanding requirements of industries ranging from gaming to
manufacturing."
"Acronis is a strategic partner for each of our
enterprise customers," added Stephen Lawton, Acronis director of
marketing. "We view every enterprise as its own challenge with its
own special requirements. There are no cookie-cutter solutions
where one size fits all. Each IT director has specific needs and
desires, and it is our responsibility to meet each need for each
unique environment."
Terms of the agreement were not released.
