Paragon Chosen by Portcullis Systems

Paragon Software Group (PSG) has been selected by Portcullis Systems, Inc. to provide entire system and data backups, continuous data availability and fast disaster recovery options for Portcullis Systems’ entire line of enterprise-class hardware solutions.

Portcullis Systems, focused on network and applications security, is a global partner with Microsoft and HP offering solutions for secure remote access and providing substantial expertise around Microsoft Security products. Portcullis Systems provides significant value to customers, above and beyond the value of the Microsoft applications that come as part of the Portcullis Systems appliances.

Portcullis Systems has integrated Drive Backup 9 Server Edition into its security appliances, and will also offer it as an upgrade to existing customers, which include some of the world’s largest financial institutions, government ministries, defense departments, healthcare organizations, and industry-leading enterprises.

According to Michael Oldham, CEO of Portcullis Systems, "Portcullis Systems’ products leverage award-winning Microsoft security solutions to provide the strongest application-level security available. We then further enhance these products by including software that increases the application value, such as Paragon’s, and finally add our advanced appliance management technologies to create powerful, turn key security appliances. We selected Paragon Drive Backup to replace Acronis True Image Server due to the software’s relatively simple functionality for backup, restore and backup scheduling, as well as its ability to backup to and restore from a backup capsule to the local drive."

Portcullis Systems believes support is critical to the long-term relationships they build with their customers. As such, they need reliable solutions in the field. By incorporating Paragon Drive Backup into its solutions, Portcullis Systems is able to make end users more self-sufficient and empower them with local and immediate recovery solutions, which are critical for enterprise-level business/network operations.

"With their focus on providing true enterprise-class hardware solutions that are designed to run in 24 x 7 x 365 datacenter environments, Portcullis Systems needed a complete, reliable disk imaging and restore solution," noted Tom Fedro, president of Paragon Software Group. "Drive Backup 9 Server Edition is a perfect fit for Portcullis Systems’ needs."
