The Netlan wager (AdBackup Reseller)

Netlan is an IT service and distribution company specialized in information management and the integration of infrastructure and management solutions. Founded five years ago, Netlan works with expert partners in telecommunications and video over IP.

To guarantee the satisfaction of its clients, especially the VSEs and SMEs, Netlan has pledged to offer them solutions adapted specifically to their needs. "The most important thing is for our clients to be satisfied by the solutions we offer. We are therefore very careful with our choice of service providers - we have to be 100% confident in their solutions." explains Sébastien Charles, the founder of Netlan.

A gamble: offer a backup service customized to the needs of its clients.

Netlan wanted to offer its clients a secure remote backup system. "Even if in France few directors or IT managers are able to estimate the risks linked to a loss of their data, the market is evolving rapidly and should reach its peak of maturity during 2009. In the meantime, we need to work on spreading the word about to get companies used to the idea," he explains.

Having tested a number of solutions, Netlan chose Oodrive's AdBackup. Before committing itself in any way, and in order to evaluate it accurately, the distributor used the system to protect its own data and the result was conclusive. Convinced, the distributor particularly appreciated:

• the reliability of the solution: integral security (encryption, storage redundancy, and contractual guarantee), transparency of the backup reports
• its quality/price ratio: the cost of the solution is moderate and affordable, and the invoicing is based on the volume of the saved data
• the added value of the service: the availability of an AdBackup expert to present the service to new clients, the fact that an AdBackup technician can be contacted at any time, a joint marketing operation, a dedicated Internet portal...

Besides these three aspects, Netlan shares the Oodrive company spirit. "Compatible with our philosophy, Oodrive listens to its network and honors its commitment to maintain close relations with its resellers. The teams are available, and they know their product inside out", adds Sébastien Charles.

AdBackup: A top-level service, guaranteed security, and a quality product

Through the AdBackup solution, Oodrive offers companies the chance to outsource the backup of their critical data. Thus the remote storage enables them to have a copy of critical data available at any time from any connected computer.

The solution carries out the backup from computers and servers by transferring the files through an encrypted Internet connection to high security redundant storage centers. Planning enables the data to be automatically backed up at the chosen times, and compression technology permits accelerated data transfers.

If the user wishes, he or she can restore either a complete or a partial file.

Moreover, whatever the file sizes, the "block mode" technology allows backup of only the modified parts of a file, thus shortening the backup time.

Oodrive and Netlan have been working together for over a year. "We have very positive feedback from our clients who are using the AdBackup solution. They are totally confident and are completely reassured by the security of their data," concludes Sébastien Charles.
