DataFort Provides
Resellers an Ongoing Revenue Stream from a Single Sale
|
| Off-Site Storage and Back-up Expert
Offers Resellers 20% of the Service Revenue in New Channel
Programme |
| Release
date: May 2002 |
| DataFort, the provider of effortless
off-site data backup, has today announced the launch of
a new channel programme offering resellers 20% of the
ongoing revenue from licensing. This allows resellers
to generate an ongoing revenue stream from a single sale,
without the need to handle any of the ongoing service
and support. In addition, hardware dealers who install
DataFort software as standard on desktop and laptop computers,
not only receive the commission on resulting sales, but
will also be given an additional share of the revenue
from DataFort. |
| "We are looking to recruit
resellers, consultants and storage specialists, as well
as hardware dealers and manufacturers. With most hardware-based
back-up solutions only offering falling or shrinking margins
and requiring some form of ongoing service and support,
we think the DataFort service offers a far more compelling
business argument for the reseller community," comments
Gavin Smith, CEO of DataFort. "We are offering resellers
a substantial split of the ongoing revenue stream for
the service, without them having to get involved in any
of the post-sales support. What's more, DataFort is the
simplest back-up solution available and an easy sale." |
| Benefiting from its developers'
wealth of experience in the development of high end
back-up and disaster recovery within the financial sector,
DataFort offers a simple user-friendly solution for
off-site information storage. The software automatically
gathers the data, compresses and encrypts it at source,
before transferring it via an Internet connection to
mirrored disk servers located in a secure data centre. |
| The data remains safely stored
in an encrypted format, and can be easily retrieved
over the Internet by any authorised end-user. The DataFort
solution negates the need for employee intervention
in the backup process, reducing cost and eliminating
opportunities for human error. It also simplifies data
retrieval, removing the reliance on trained staff to
manage the process. |
