Consonus Technologies today announced that Laurus Technologies of Itasca, IL has signed on as a RapidResult$ Channel Partner for Consonus RBS™ Remote Backup Service and Consonus SAFE™ Secure Archiving for the Enterprise™ -- Consonus Managed IT Services that enable customers the same robust backup and archival capabilities at significantly less cost than other solutions.

Through its RapidResult$ Channel Partner program, Consonus makes more widely available its sizable investment in its highly-available SAS70 Type II audited data centers. The partnership with Laurus Technologies advances Consonus' commitment to make its Managed IT Services more widely available through partnerships with proven IT service providers across the country.

"Partnering with Consonus enables Laurus Technologies to confidently offer our customers the highest standard in robust, reliable, and certified remote backup and secure archiving solutions so they can focus their resources on their core business initiatives" said Brian Wolfe, Partner and Co-founder of Laurus Technologies.

Consonus SAFE™ employs the industry's leading email and content archiving solution: Symantec Enterprise Vault, which has been adopted by more than 10,000 organizations globally and each year is recognized by leading analyst firms for its leadership in data archiving and eDiscovery. Consonus is the first and only IT Solutions firm authorized by Symantec to deliver Enterprise Vault as a hosted and managed service. Consonus SAFE™ simplifies any complex email server and data backup environment by easily dealing with disparate data and systems, consolidating myriad data stores into one manageable entity.

Consonus RBS™ is an alternative to traditional backup methods, replacing conventional solutions -- such as tape -- with a fully automated online solution. Consonus RBS™ provides automated backups of heterogeneous file servers as well as application and database servers with encrypted, secure offsite storage, and rapid online restoration.

Both Consonus SAFE™ and Consonus RBS™ are managed from Consonus' SAS70 Type II audited data centers and offer 24x7x365 monitoring of backup environments and IT Support Services.

"Data doesn't care about the economy," observed Mike Shook, President and CEO of Consonus. "Businesses today are focused on survival, and must avoid the burden of additional headcount and capital investment. With Consonus and Laurus Technologies, customers become able to focus on their core business."
