ePlus Offers Enterprise Storage Assessment Services

ePlus inc. announced that its subsidiary, ePlus Technology, inc., has expanded its assessment capabilities to offer Enterprise Storage Assessments.

The assessment provides visibility into an organization’s storage infrastructure and identifies recommended actions for improving storage efficiency, performance and availability.

In its Enterprise Storage Assessment, ePlus takes an in-depth look at an organization’s storage architecture to determine the infrastructure’s resiliency, capacity, and cost effectiveness. After data collection and analysis, deliverables include detailed reports and actionable recommendations all linked to the organization’s specific business operations, compliance, financial, technical, and operational factors.

ePlus provides data center solutions, including design, implementation, and management. It supports a range of environments including storage vendor arrays such as Brocade, Cisco, Dell, EMC, Hitachi, HP, IBM, and NetApp. In its Enterprise Storage Assessment findings, ePlus considers multiple storage strategies as well as compare/contrast benefits of different approaches.

"The explosive growth of data, and the related spiraling costs, make it more critical than ever for customers to have effective storage resource management in place," said Mark Marron, president of ePlus Technology. "Through our Enterprise Storage Assessment, we arm customers with the critical details and recommendations they need to make the most effective use of their multi-vendor storage resources. We provide insight needed to accurately forecast storage capacity, improve data backup and storage performance, increase application availability, and minimize future storage purchases driving more savings to their bottom line."
