Baton Rouge-Based Workers Compensation Insurer Chooses Venyu

Venyu Solutions, Inc., in BC, cloud-based virtualization, and data recovery services, has been chosen by Baton Rouge, LA-based Stonetrust Commercial Insurance Company to provide managed hosting services and cloud-based backup to support their business operations.

Venyu helped the company save more than $50,000 by eliminating costly IT capital upgrades as well as hiring additional IT support staff to manage a larger, in-house data center.

Stonetrust provides statutory workers’ compensation insurance for construction, wholesale, retail, manufacturing, and other service related businesses currently with more than 4,700 active policies. As the company grew, the need for an outsourced, reliable backup, and managed hosting provider became clear. Stonetrust meet these needs with Venyu’s hosting site in Baton Rouge, LA, which provides a redundant, secure and scalable infrastructure.

Reliable backup consists of Venyu’s cloud-based data recovery solution, RestartIT. As an essential element of any DR plan, Venyu’s backup saves all data changes, while securing information in the company’s commercial-grade data centers. Should a man-made or natural disaster prevent Stonetrust from accessing its on-site data, Venyu can export all needed information to a Mobile Vault for restoration and access.

“Given the real threat of catastrophic events in our region, DR isn’t just a ‘nice-to-have,’ but a necessity to keep business going,” said Sukhy Dhillon, CIO, Stonetrust. “With Venyu, we don’t worry about data being lost or unavailable in the event of emergency. No matter what the situation – we know Venyu’s got us covered.“

“Stonetrust’s customers rely on them, which means they need to have access to vital data at all times,” said Scott Thompson, CEO, Venyu. “With our managed hosting and backup, Stonetrust eliminates outages because all data is safely held and accessible in Venyu’s data centers. Stonetrust can focus on what they’re known for: providing quality customer service.“
