451 Group Impact Report Recognizes Asigra Cloud Backup v11for Enterprise Data Protection of Tablets and Smartphones
Strong Feature Set Augmented with Mobile Device Support
TORONTO – August 11, 2011 – Asigra Inc., a leading cloud backup and recovery software provider since 1986, today announced that the company’s latest generation software has been featured in an Impact Report by The 451 Group titled “Asigra’s Cloud Backup Floats into Tablet and Smartphone Space.” In the report, Asigra is recognized for its latestgeneration cloud backup software, large network of service providers, more than 400,000 global customer site deployments and strategic partnerships with Intel, NetApp, and Huawei Symantec to increase the company’s footprint in the cloud backup and recovery space.
With worldwide shipments of smartphones reaching 302 million units in 2010 and more than 53 million tablets expected to ship in 2011, the large and growing amount of corporate data that is residing and flowing through mobile devices is increasing the need to protect these assets in the enterprise. In The 451 Group analysis of Asigra and its recently announced Cloud Backup, Recovery & Restore (BURR) v11 platform, the research firm highlighted Asigra’s “strong feature set” which has been augmented further for the protection of data on smartphones and tablets in the enterprise. Asigra’s ability to backup laptops, tablets and smartphones provide a consolidated data protection offering for businesses to rein in all of their critical corporate data.
“We at The 451 Group believe that Asigra chose the right time to add backup clients for smartphones and tablets given their increasing popularity in business environments,” said Henry Baltazar, Senior Analyst, The 451 Group. “The key now will be for service-providers to effectively deliver this technology as a service to enterprises challenged with the protection of mobile devices.”
As a point of differentiation from other enablers of cloud backup, the research firm points out that Asigra ensures “there is no proprietary lock-in to a single service provider. Customers are free to shift over to another Asigra partner if they are unsatisfied with the pricing or the service levels of their existing provider, without having to abandon their data.”
"We are pleased with the continued acknowledgement from industry analysts as we gain momentum in the cloud backup space,” said Ashar Baig, Senior Director, Strategic Alliances, Asigra. "By advancing our solution with innovative features, we're able to deliver the only cloud backup platform to protect an organization’s entire digital footprint, from multiple data centers to mobile devices.”

Queplix And First Hosted Partner To Deliver Automated, Cost-Effective Data Integration Solution In United Kingdom
Partnership with UK NetSuite Provider Expands Queplix Footprint to Europe
SUNNYVALE, Calif., August 10, 2011 – Queplix® Corp., a leader in data integration and data management, today announced that First Hosted Ltd. has joined the Queplix Advantage™ partner program. First Hosted will participate as a value added reseller for QueCloud™ in the United Kingdom. QueCloud enables companies to securely integrate on-premise and cloud applications such as NetSuite®, Salesforce®, SAP®, and Oracle® applications with unprecedented speed and simplicity.
First Hosted, a NetSuite® solutions provider, is adding QueCloud to its portfolio of software solutions to help customers integrate business applications without incurring expensive consultant and IT fees. The increased business efficiency and reduced set-up costs provided by QueCloud will benefit users, particularly as they perform multiple integrations involving more than two applications. “Up until now, companies such as those in third party logistics, would have to pay consultants’ fees spanning into many tens of thousands of dollars for integration with their customers’ business platforms, such as Oracle®, Peoplesoft® and SAP® for example," said First Hosted managing director Andrew Peddie. “QueCloud is automated, quick to deploy and will easily configure common business applications such as Oracle and Salesforce with on-site applications and data like Google®, PeopleSoft® and SYBASE® at a fraction of the typical cost. Adding QueCloud to our range of software solutions allows us to help customers avoid the pain, problems and high cost associated with conventional data integration."
“We are extremely pleased to partner with a UK distributor who has a real understanding of the best practices to cost-effectively integrate enterprise and cloud-based applications," said Mark Cashman, CEO of Queplix. “Our new relationship brings advantage for both organizations as cloud computing gains widespread adoption due to the operational and cost efficiencies it affords. We look forward to a long and productive partnership with First Hosted."
The partnership extends Queplix's presence into Europe and further advances delivery of its technology on a worldwide scale.
"The relationship with First Hosted further validates our advanced data virtualization technology - the horsepower behind our data integration and management solutions,” added Cashman. “We expect to see continued Advantage partner program participation and expansion as companies look to solve their data integration problems more effectively and efficiently. Value added resellers are a very important part of our strategy and we will continue to recruit the industry leaders on a global basis."
