IT Services Provider Quikteks Protects Clients

iland Internet Solutions Corporation, a cloud infrastructure and DR-as-a-Service (DRaaS ) provider, announced that Quikteks, LLC, an IT consultancy on the Inc 5000 list, is offering customers iland Cloud Backup and iland DRaaS for Veeam.

Quikteks, founded in 2007, provides IT services to customers across New York, New Jersey and Connecticut. It prides itself on the QoSs it provides to its SMBs clients. With the memory of Hurricane Sandy in the region still looming large, Quikteks regards a solid BC plan as critical to quality IT service.

The solution it landed upon brought together on-premise Veeam software with an off-site cloud backup and DRaaS function, hosted with iland, 2015 Veeam service provider partner of the year, North America. Since it made the partnership choice, Quikteks has been rolling out both the backup and DR solution more than 50 companies in its portfolio.

“In the past five years, we’ve been searching for the right marriage of technology platform and service provider to meet our clients’ needs,” said Nick Tammaro, VP of consulting services, Quikteks. “The exceptional customer service we get from iland spills over to our own clients, ensuring their experience is consistently positive.“

“The partnership between iland, Veeam, and our joint resellers means customers have a seamless, consistent experience both on-premises and in the cloud,” said Kevin Rooney, VP of North America channel sales, Veeam. “Quikteks is a great example, leveraging the iland cloud to ensure BC of their customers in the tristate area.“

While the need for strong BC is clear for Quikteks’ clients, the iland Cloud Backup and iland DRaaS solutions provide more than just that assurance:

• Customer service: From the on-boarding of new customers to DR testing, the certified iland customer support team smooths the way to a confident, rapid deployment of the solution. And, critical to Quikteks, it knows that in an emergency, iland’s team will partner to ensure failovers are successful and backups are easily retrieved. This customer service partnership is critical to extending Quikteks’ value to its clients.
• Protection from non-weather threats: While the threat of natural disaster often drives BC efforts, Quikteks takes a consultative approach to emergency planning with its clients, raising broader concerns like hardware failures and malicious attacks. Having a solution to showcase has made conversations more tangible, enabling clients to determine whether simple backup, or the option of rapid failover is best for each of their systems.
• Integrated, cost-effective solution: While Quikteks aims to remove the complexity of IT systems for their customers, its partners can often stymie those efforts with complex pricing or tricky deployments. The iland Cloud Backup and DRaaS solutions, powered by Veeam Cloud Connect, have enabled Quikteks to maintain the simplicity of its IT service offerings – and the low costs, as well.
