The Superlative Awards
Written submissions were required for the superlative awards and were reviewed and judged by Datto’s management staff.
Superior Service
This Datto Partner went above and beyond the call of duty for their client.
TeamLogic IT - Memphis provides comprehensive computer services along with premier customer service, allowing companies to focus on the business, not IT. TeamLogic IT – Memphis (TLIT-Memphis) is member of the nationwide TeamLogicIT family.
Winning Scenario:
One of TLIT-Memphis’ clients processes payroll for multiple companies, and at 2pm on a Friday (payday!), their servers crashed. TLIT determined the problem was with the server’s hard drives and hard drive controller. This might cause most businesses to panic, given the hundreds of employees that would have been irate should they not get paid.
Luckily, TLIT and their client installed a Datto SIRIS two months prior to the server crash. Immediately after the crash, TLIT initiated their “real time disaster recovery protocol.” Within an hour, the client’s server was up and running. And everyone got paid. And the Datto SIRIS paid for itself.
Business Continuity Champion
This Datto Partner successfully conveyed the value of business continuity and persuaded a client to change backup solutions.
LMS Technical Services of Farmingdale, NY and New York, NY delivers support services for small and medium-sized businesses. They serve clients both locally and worldwide. LMS has premier 24/7 services utilizing automated network support software as well as a staff of expert IT professionals.
Winning Scenario:
One of LMS’s clients, in the insurance field, was using an outdated backup, disaster recovery (BDR) solution (from a Datto competitor) that did not offer off-site virtualization. The outdated BDR had never been put to the test with an actual disaster, and LMS was concerned that should a disaster occur, the BDR would not be able to handle it. For the benefit of their client, LMS needed to upsell them on a Datto SIRIS.
Using recent natural disasters as an example (Hurricane Sandy is still very real, especially on Long Island) and references to cloud virtualization as a viable option. LMS succeeded in selling Datto SIRIS to their client; the main feature that “won” was the time to virtualize on the SIRIS itself. LMS ran a virtualization comparison test: old BDR vs. SIRIS. The old BDR took four times long to virtualize and required two attempts. Only Datto SIRIS from now on.
