CEOExpress Achieves Fail-Safe Backup and Disaster Recovery

Best of the Web executive portal stays up and running with AmeriVault Corp.

Waltham, MA (PR Web) April 22, 2002 -- As a global web portal for senior executives that receives over 70 million hits per month, CEOExpress needed a fail-safe backup and disaster recovery solution to keep them up and running 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Growing increasingly frustrated with their existing backup and recovery solution because of nightmarish restores, lack of control, lengthy backup sessions and high cost they were on a mission to find a better solution.

The last straw was when we had to rebuild a server for a day and half because restoring it was too expensive. This was a huge loss of man-hours and downtime, that we couldnt afford," said John Belmonte, Vice President of Technical Operations for CEOExpress.

After an extensive search, they selected AmeriVault Corp., the pioneer of online backup and recovery. Utilizing industry-leading software, AmeriVaults service recognizes and captures changes to files (at the block level), encrypts the data for enhanced security and compresses it to minimize transmission time. The encrypted data is then sent over the Internet or private telecommunication lines to highly secure offsite Mass Storage Vaults. Since only changed data segments are sent, even in the highly unlikely event someone is able to break into the code they would only find a few unintelligible bits of data, as opposed to an entire file. Customers schedule automated, unattended backups according to their needs. Retrieval can be accomplished online, real-time from their place of business or remotely.

We selected AmeriVault because with their solution, we have complete control over the backup process. We also really liked their rigorous security and affordable price. Weve used AmeriVault for three years now, and I cant imagine a better solution or service. We really give them a lot of credit for giving us peace of mind so that we could focus on our business and get to where we are today," said John.

CEOExpress is one of many small to medium sized companies we keep up and running every day. Data is such an important irreplaceable asset and our unstable environment since September 11th, is proof of needing a solid, fail-safe solution," said Bud Stoddard, President, AmeriVault Corp.
