Solutions by Computer (SBC) Selects Venyu as its Remote Online Data Backup and Recovery Provider

Leading software reseller turns to Venyu’s AmeriVault® backup service to reduce the time, complexity and uncertainty associated with protecting business-critical data

Baton Rouge, LA – February 8, 2010 – Venyu, a leader in commercial-grade, customizable solutions for data protection, availability and recovery, today announced that Solutions by Computer (SBC), a leading provider of rental business management software, relies on the Venyu AmeriVault® remote online data backup and recovery solution to ensure customer systems are always backed up properly and access to data is never compromised.

SBC has served the rental industry for nearly three decades with mission-critical software applications for equipment, tool and event rental, as well as numerous niche rental needs. The company provides rental businesses of all types with the IT systems necessary to effectively manage rental and sales inventory and critical business data.

“For many of our customers, data backup is the last thing on their mind, until they need it,” said Tim Johnson, SBC Vice President of Support. “We offer backup services to our customers as a proactive way to protect the data assets they entrust to us and ensure business continuity at all times.”

According to Johnson, since switching to Venyu’s AmeriVault online data backup and recovery solution, SBC’s backup failure rate has declined from fifteen percent to nearly zero percent, and management time has gone from an hour a day to ten minutes a week on average. SBC manages backups through a Venyu web portal and makes decisions remotely rather than directly accessing a customer’s network, which can be intrusive. When incidental restores are needed, SBC customers can simply make a request and know their data will be restored.

“Venyu allows us to be much more proactive, rather than reactive,” said Johnson. “I used to take a deep breath at the end of each week, relieved if we didn’t have a failure. Our entire data backup environment has changed for the better.”

The Venyu AmeriVault online data backup service delivers advanced data protection that combines remote backup and offsite storage into one automated step by simply installing software and leveraging existing internet connectivity. With disciplined, automated offsite backup, expert technical support, and disk-based recovery devices, companies can focus on core competencies without sacrificing data protection.
