VoIP Innovations Expands its Local Number Portability Service Offering

Pittsburgh, PA (PRWEB) August 20, 2012

VoIP Innovations, North Americas premier wholesale VoIP carrier, announced its plans to expand its Local Number Portability (LNP) service offering. VoIPs rapid growth has been challenging for many carriers as they try to process LNP orders. VoIP Innovations has addressed this problem by leveraging technology and increasing staffing. Many carriers are still doing number portability by using handwritten LOAs and emails, stated Jason Tapolci, president of VoIP Innovations. VoIP Innovations has approached the problem by automating the process by developing an online signature LOA and incorporating that into the Titanium III Backoffice. The result has been a smoother and faster porting process for customers.

As the leader in wholesale VoIP Origination, tackling the LNP process was one of our main priorities, stated Barry Yancosek, Porting Supervisor for VoIP Innovations. VoIP Innovations has recently doubled its staff and expanded its project porting department. Also, VoIP Innovations recently announced it had become a RESPORG. This will allow VoIP Innovations to quickly handle Toll-Free porting requests. In addition, VoIP Innovations recently launched it iPhone and Android App which allows resellers to monitor their Porting Dashboard reports.

VoIP Innovations strength lies in its large footprint. It is one of the few carriers that is a true nationwide provider with several thousand rate centers. They are able to port to so many rate centers because they have such a large footprint, stated Ben Navaro with a Denver based ITSP. VoIP Innovations has grown its footprint by aggregating several carriers in order to provide one large ubiquitous network.

VoIP Innovations is based in Pittsburgh, Pa and provides wholesale VoIP services to Carriers, ITSPs, Calling Centers, Calling Card Companies and SMB/Enterprise. These services include VoIP Origination, Termination, 411, e911, Caller ID and more. To learn more about VoIP Innovations, visit them at http://www.VoIPInnovations.com or 877-478-6471.

Seattle, WA (PRWEB) June 13, 2012

AltDrive Secure Online File Backup Service is expanding its offering to the home users and general business communities throughout North America. Inexpensive and simple to setup, AltDrive provides unlimited remote file backup so that recovery is achievable after a disaster. AltDrive’s key competitors are Carbonite, Mozy and Backblaze.

Most people and businesses do not back up their important data regularly or at all. They do not have the time, or its too expensive or complicated. But it happens – mistakes, computer viruses, negligence, fire, theft, hardware problems – when files are lost, often they cannot be recovered. With individuals that can mean loss of important documents or priceless photos and videos. For a business, that can mean loss of everything.

AltDrive addresses these backup concerns with a superb and inexpensive offering with many critical design and business features:

Secure Versioned Online Backup service for Home and Business.

Free, unlimited size backup, 60-day trial – no credit card required.

Provides unlimited remote storage for just $ 3.71 per month for Home customers.

An inexpensive utility style plan is offered for businesses on a budget.

The customer software is dummy-proof and easy to signup, install and administer using wizards.

Low use of computer system resources – usually less than 1% of system memory and CPU.

Does not slow computer usage.

The service automatically backs up all important files to a secure remote location.

Subsequent backups send only changes and are fast.

Files are compressed and then encrypted with a high strength cipher before their transmission to AltDrive.

Customers can control their encryption key preventing file access to even AltDrive personnel.

Default or highly defined backup sets allow for backing up exactly what you want.

Restores files easily and starts immediately, even to another computer.

Works efficiently on 32 and 64-bit Windows, Mac OSX, Linux and Solaris.

The remote server facility utilizes a blended multiple provider network for increased reliability and throughput.

Ability to determine a lost or stolen computers general location and other information to assist in recovery.

AltDrive was designed for the paranoid. It uses a super strong AES-256 CTR mode data encryption cipher with a private key so that even AltDrive personnel cannot view customer’s files – a must for savvy businesses. For convenience, home users can elect to have AltDrive manage the encryption key.

The AltDrive service provides data de-duplication for improved backup efficiency. Some people just can’t help it – they have multiple copies of documents, music, and photos on their machines. AltDrive finds these duplicates and does not back them up, instead making a record to refer to original at restore time. This feature makes backups significantly faster.

About AltDrive

Established in 2005, founded by a serial entrepreneur with security, scalability, and usability backgrounds, and located in Seattle, AltDrive’s mission is to ensure that all computer data is securely backed up and versioned.

ProviDyns Expands Its Hardware as a Service (HaaS) Offering to SMBs

Atlanta, GA (PRWEB) July 31, 2012

July 31, 2012 — ProviDyn, a provider of IT support, strategy and services, announces the expansion of their Hardware as a Service (HaaS) offering designed to provide capital equipment advantages to small and medium-sized businesses (SMB) for a reasonable fixed monthly fee.

For many SMBs, there are infrastructure and network equipment needs that require a significant capital investment. Often times, with constrained budgets, it is difficult to justify a large cash expense to procure the necessary hardware to allow their business to perform efficiently with business class stability.

ProviDyns HaaS program is designed to allow SMBs to shift their capital equipment expenses to an operational cost, but also include the cost of software and management with those devices. In todays market, servers, firewalls, switches, routers, wireless access points, etc., have become the norm rather than the exception. Often, the cost of acquiring these devices can be prohibitive, leading the business owners and decision makers to make sacrifices in their network architecture in order to preserve capital or cash on hand.

Along with the financial benefits, the HaaS program also creates flexibility and scalability as SMBs grow. Rapid growth often leads to continual upgrade and replacement of hardware and equipment. Under the HaaS model, companies can maintain a predictable monthly cost, and upgrade into more advanced devices as dictated by company growth.

Weve reached a point where all businesses, both big and small, have difficulty operating without a proper infrastructure, said Hamish Davidson, co-founder and president of ProviDyn. In the past, capital investment has been costly and inflexible for SMBs. With our HaaS program, these companies can now acquire the proper equipment and software, without making sacrifices that weaken their technology, within a reasonable and manageable budget.

About ProviDyn

ProviDyn provides technology expertise, services and support to Atlanta-area small and medium-sized businesses. Backed by certified technology professionals, ProviDyns services include managed services, cloud computing solutions, virtualization, help desk and computer support, IT strategy, network security, backup and disaster recovery and IP telephony. ProviDyn delivers the right mix of technology and expertise allowing its clients to focus on growing their business.
