C Spire and RoundTower Technologies Forge Alliance

RoundTower Technologies, LLC will provide managed co-location, DR and other related services for enterprise business customers of the cloud services and computing solutions unit for C Spire (Advanced Data Solutions, LLC), a diversified telecommunications and technology services company, owned by Cellular South, Inc.

Under terms of the alliance, the growing Cincinnati-based solution provider will compliment C Spire’s cloud-based services in Mississippi, Louisiana and Alabama with a suite of ‘white-label’ managed cloud services, according to Michael Swiencki, director of managed services, RoundTower.

“We deliver a full range of managed services to address any business challenges and IT complexities,” Swiencki said: noting that inefficient IT processes can disrupt the flow of vital data, leading to lost production, sales and revenues. “We’re excited about working with C Spire to provide enterprise customers with a cost-effective, reliable end-to-end solution.“

C Spire cloud solutions, which began offering DR as a Service last year and co-location services in 2015, believes the alliance with RoundTower will enable both companies to focus on their strengths and deliver cloud and computing service solutions to customers.

“RoundTower is a recognized leader in providing end-to-end solutions in sales, service, installation and support for their suite of fully customized managed services,” said Brian Caraway, SVP, C Spire. “By partnering together, we bridge the technology gap and help firms leverage technology to achieve mission critical goals.“

C Spire cloud solutions provide a range of data and cloud services through a data center ecosystem of tier 3 commercial facilities that meet SOC, HIPAA and PCI requirements. The company uses providers on all critical systems.

Caraway said the company’s data centers and buried fiber network positions C Spire as a provider of backup, DR, BC and cloud-based information technology solutions in the Southeast.

“Our portfolio also incorporates best-in-class technical service provided by IT architects who work personally with customers to manage a secure transition to the cloud,” he added.
