With Remote Backup a client is installed on the customer’s server, who via a WAN/internet connection performs periodic backup of all, or parts of, the customer’s data. This means that if a customer server goes down, lost data can be completely restored on a new server, which in turn is delivered to the customer. This provides increased security, minimum down-time, secure data storage and frees up resources in the customer’s IT department.
TOPNORDIC’s acquisition of dmsave will further develop and support existing hosting-business in Denmark, and create a more defined profile in the market. The strengthening and focusing of services enable TOPNORDIC to hoste also the largest companies in the country. Additionally, the acquisition opens up for an expansion of the services side of the business through and increased customer base, and for a further improvement in the quality of services delivered.
Until today dmsave has been owned 50% by IBM and 50% by ITS Finans ApS, which primarily consists of the dmsave management group. The cost of the acquisition is not disclosed.
”dmsave is a perfect match for TOPNORDIC. We are expanding our outsourcing department with the correct key competences, through a highly skilled and recognised partner,” said Director Jan Elbæk, TOPNORDIC.
The six year old business provides the most secure and flexible backup solutions in the market, and in 2005 Computerworld voted dmsave the most competent in its field.
”I am looking forward to the cooperation, as the combination of dmsave’s skills and TOPNORDIC’s market position will be both strong and convincing,” said Director Poul Bærentsen, TOPNORDIC.
