DynaSis IT Services Prepares Businesses for Data Loss and More: Business Continuity Plans Increase Survivability after Disaster

Atlanta, GA (PRWEB) July 30, 2009

DynaSis, a technology managed service provider, is now offering business continuity plans to help small to medium sized businesses prepare for emergencies such as natural disaster, network crashes, or theft of business data. Unlike enterprises, many smaller companies cannot afford optimal in-house strategies and solutions. These companies are consequently at an elevated risk of being put out of business due to any major loss of data. A business continuity plan goes beyond offsite data backup and recovery and gives businesses a strategy detailing actions that will be taken after a crisis so the business can remain as functional as possible.

A key component of a business continuity plan is of course making sure critical documents and data are digitized or copied and stored off site, but the plan encompasses much more. Aspects businesses may not have considered include doing visual walkthroughs of facilities at least once a year to look for deficiencies, as well as making sure the business has sufficient business interruption insurance to cover the cost of operations for at least 60 days with no income. Other areas of concern consist of communications with employees in the event of phone system or Internet outages and creating a plan in case key employees can’t perform their duties or quit suddenly. Maintaining a list of emergency vendors as well as securing an alternative place to conduct business if the primary facility is unavailable are also details the plan would include.

DynaSis President David Moorman said, “Our goal is always to be a value added provider in the eyes of our clients. For this reason, we go beyond being just your IT repair guy. Protecting your data is half the battle, but when a crisis hits, you also have to think about what you are going to do to get back up to speed. What a business does in the first four hours after an emergency often determines how well they can bounce back.”

With 87% of companies that lose access to their corporate data for more than 7 days going out of business within a year and less than 5% of non-regulated businesses having a business continuity plan, and the need for business continuity planning services is real and the benefits to clients are immediate and long-term. Benefits realized after completing a business continuity/disaster recovery plan include competitive advantage, insurance savings, efficiency savings, improved processes, increased stockholder value and peace of mind.

DynaSis IT Services Prepares Businesses for Data Loss and More: Business Continuity Plans Increase Survivability after Disaster

Pedigree Technologies Plans Headquarters Move after Record Growth Year

Fargo, ND (PRWEB) May 02, 2012

Late in 2003, a small technology company with two employees moved into NDSUs Research and Technology Park to start development of a software application that would connect and automate sensor-enabled physical assets.

Still headquartered out of Fargo, ND, Pedigree Technologies has become an award-winning machine-to-machine business solutions provider with a national footprint. Since the commercial launch of its OneView application suite in 2009, Pedigree has more than doubled its customer base each year, with a 226% increase in 2011 alone.

From its office in NDSUs Technology Incubator, the company provides cloud- and tablet-based applications that locate, monitor, and diagnose high-value assets, equipment, and vehicles. This technology allows machines to engage in real-time dialogue with the enterprise and the mobile workforce, improving operations and logistics for more profitable fleet and field service management.

This kind of rapid growth speaks not only to demand for the technology, but to the quality and innovation coming out of our region, said Alex Warner, founder and chief executive officer of Pedigree Technologies. Sure, we have competitors out there, but ultimately we win business because of the hard work and dedication of our employees, from product engineering to support.

To support this growth, the company has added 40% more employees since the commercial launch and is preparing to relocate to its own facility in the Urban Plains area of Fargo. With a satellite office in Sioux Falls and a national sales presence, Pedigree Technologies serves several industries, including oilfield services, heavy and mobile equipment management, transportation and logistics, agriculture, and mechanical services.

Pedigrees success and rapid growth is illustrative of the economic stimulation being created at NDSU. They are one of a growing number of North Dakota success stories we are proud of having started here, said NDSU President Dean Bresciani.

“We congratulate Pedigree Technologies and Alex Warner on all they have achieved during their impressive growth in their initial years at the NDSU Research and Technology Park,” said Tony Grindberg, executive director of the Park. “A number of companies such as Pedigree have achieved success after their start-up phase and graduated from the Park. We continue to support start-up businesses that coincide with core research competencies at NDSU.”

The company got started with a 2005 trial project using wireless sensors and remote temperature monitoring in sugar beet piles, which introduced the company as an innovator in remote monitoring and machine-to-machine technology.

In 2007 Pedigree was awarded a multi-million dollar contract with the U.S. Navy for the implementation of an intelligent wireless operating network. Pedigree Technologies launched its OneView product commercially two years later and has been recognized on the international M2M Top 100 list from trade publication Connected World for five consecutive years.

Most recently Pedigree Technologies was presented with the Frost & Sullivan 2011 North American New Product Innovation Award in M2M-based Fleet Management Software.

The company was founded years ago on a philosophy that hasnt changed, said Warner. Its that web-based software and services can improve operational efficiencies without significant investments in infrastructure or technology resources.

Locally, Warner was recently announced as a finalist for the Fargo-Moorhead-West Fargo Chamber of Commerce Entrepreneur of the Year Award. Warner attributes the nomination to the success of his employees and looks forward to celebrating the companys rapid growth in the new facility this June.

The NDSU Research and Technology Park provides a space that facilitates innovation and community-building among entrepreneurs at early-stage companies, allowing them to focus on the core business in the early years, Warner said. Pedigree Technologies was located at NDSUs Research 2 before moving into the Technology Incubator in 2007.

“NDSUs Research Park and Pedigree have been partners from the beginning, bringing opportunities to the region, said Dr. Philip Boudjouk, NDSU vice president for research, creative activities and technology transfer. Our researchers and students continue to work with area companies such as Pedigree, contributing to technology-based economic growth. We congratulate the company on its many successes and look forward to continuing as research partners in the future.”

ValueReseller Launches New Private-Label Cloud Hosting Reseller Plans

Flemington, NJ (PRWEB) April 20, 2011

ValueReseller (http://www.valuereseller.com), a leading wholesale managed hosting provider, announced the launch of its reseller cloud this week.

The ValueReseller Cloud gives web hosts, hosting resellers, and web developers the ability to offer their clients VMware-based cloud hosting with a 100% infrastructure uptime SLA. ValueResellers Private Label Cloud Hosting platform supports both Linux and Windows operating systems and is unique in the industry.

The new plans offered include a Pay As You Go model at just $ 9.95 per month. This allows resellers to add their own cloud hosted sites on-demand and pay only for the actual resources used (control panel, space and bandwidth). This plan is offered to allow resellers a low-cost entry point into the profitable world of Cloud Hosting. It also makes it easy for resellers to migrate accounts to an Enterprise-class VMware hosting platform and get away from the performance and security issues that are rampant in traditional shared hosting environments.

At the other end of the spectrum, ValueReseller offers a unique All You Can Eat plan, featuring unlimited everything (including unlimited space and data transfer). This plan is popular with small web hosting companies, as well as VARs and SaaS providers who offer hosting as an add-on to other services. Both reseller plans can be seen at: http://www.valuereseller.com/reseller-hosting-plans

According to ValueResellers Senior Vice President of Marketing, Tom Mulkern, Hosting websites on the ValueReseller Cloud allows resellers to guarantee their clients maximum uptime through our highly available virtualized environment. Resellers can automatically charge their clients for resources and create unlimited domains on our cloud platform through an easy to use control panel. In addition, the system features full hosting automation, so resellers can automate everything from customer signup to billing to adding additional resources and services.

But the real beauty of our platform, adds Mulkern, is that its both 100% cloud and 100% managed so resellers never have to worry about the hardware behind the scenes and whether or not it will fail and cause downtime. 100% fully managed cloud hosting is the ideal platform for hosting resellers because it really allows you to focus your attention more on growing your business, not the intricacies and technical challenges of web hosting.

In addition to cloud hosting, ValueReseller has also leveraged their platform and experienced technical team to provide resellers with the opportunity to make more money by offering additional cloud-centric services, such as: online backup and disaster recovery, E-Commerce, and Managed Hosting solutions for PCI DSS, HIPAA, and Sarbanes-Oxley compliance.

About ValueReseller:

A leader in private-label Cloud services, ValueReseller provides wholesale managed hosting and related services to web hosts, hosting resellers, IT professionals and web developers around the world. All services are backed by two SAS 70 Type II secure data centers, live 24/7/365 technical support and a seasoned staff with international experience in the hosting business for over 12 years. An industry innovator, ValueReseller sells only through their worldwide reseller channel and never competes directly with their partners.

New IDA Dental Marketing Plans Include Intelligence Reports For Strategic Online Campaigns

(PRWEB) July 07, 2012

The New Patient Marketing Machine from Internet Dental Alliance, Inc. (IDA) now includes a powerful dental marketing strategy tool for Professional and Premium level members: Quarterly Dental Marketing Intelligence Reports. Each report analyzes consumer trends using Google search data covering more than 10 top dental markets. They are designed to provide dentists with current information they can use to prioritize their dental practice marketing based on patient demand and lead acquisition cost. For a quick overview, a video summary comes with each report.

The reports empower dentists to maximize the lead generation capabilities of their IDA Portals, or dental marketing websites. Since IDA’s LeadFire technology lets dentists publish strategically search engine optimized web pages within minutes, they can use the information in the reports to take advantage of current trends, and launch or refocus online marketing campaigns with just a few clicks.

“IDA monitors both general economic trends and dental market trends, explains Jim Du Molin, dental management consultant and founder of Internet Dental Alliance, Inc. “That way we can use the Dental Marketing Intelligence Report to predict whether patients are going to feel confident and secure enough to get dental treatment and also which kinds of services they’ll want when they show up at your door!

“For example, we analyzed cosmetic dentistry in a previous Dental Marketing Intelligence Report. Five of the top 15 search phrases in that market included ‘veneers’,” added Jim Du Molin. “In addition to that, a brand name for veneers was the fourth most-searched term in the cosmetic dentistry market. So during that time period, dentists who wanted more new patients would have been smart to focus their dental web site pages on patients looking for veneers rather than crowns or bridges.”

The IDA New Patient Marketing Machine offers three levels of packages for members with varying experience levels. The Starter package includes one Portal, the basic video library, listings in IDA’s online dental directory network, dynamic search engine optimization, lead and call tracking, basic social networking links, and a basic mobile marketing landing page.

The Professional level offers five Portals, and the Premium level offers ten Portals. Both the Professional and Premium levels include significant upgrades to the Starter package’s basic features, as well as the Quarterly Dental Marketing Intelligence Reports and bonus marketing strategy tutorials designed to increase dental practice profits.

About Internet Dental Alliance, Inc.

IDA publishes the Dental Marketing Intelligence Report, and is the largest provider of dental directories and websites for dentists in North America. In 2012, it completed its unique Lead Fire lead generation system, which automates dental SEO and content marketing. LeadFire technology allows doctors to begin generating new patient leads within minutes of set up. It uses organic geo-targeted local search which is customized and optimized for each dental office. The Internet Dental Alliance provides dental practices with online dental marketing services such as dental website design and other dental management advice and resources.
