DataFort 3.0 combines easy-to-use software with highly secure server space, packaged as a managed backup solution. The pricing structure is based on a utility style model, which is particularly attractive to SMEs who only need pay for the amount of space they use on the server. Combined with a range of reporting features and, if needed, a web-based administration centre, customers can configure the initial backup and then let the DataFort service manage the backup process. Recovery of data is as simple as a few mouse clicks.

“As data accumulates, our customers are demanding integrated end-to-end data protection to prevent data loss,” explains Saleh Shahrestani, Director of Impex Ltd., “As we have a strong software focus, DataFort 3.0 was appealing as it meant that we could provide added value to our current broadband customers. Its remote management functionality was particularly attractive as a tool to track backup status without having to go on-site.”

Smith concludes, “Impex has a proven track record in the provision of complete, managed solutions.. Our philosophy is to provide companies with an automatic way to backup their data as a keystone to a good business continuity plan, and Impex is helping us to bring this capability to a wider audience.”
