New York, August 10
/PRNewswire/ -- Desktop Alert Inc. (http://www.desktopalert.net),
a leading solutions provider for alert notification software,
has selected
IronColo
(http://www.ironcolo.com),
a leading provider of complete and customized Internet
infrastructure solutions to provide data center facilities and
logistics for the Desktop Alert Notification platform. The
multi-year agreement calls for
IronColo
to provide server
co-location and management services.
“By utilizing the
expertise of
IronColo
along with their customizable solutions
and always-on service we can continue to seamlessly roll out web
based applications to our constantly expanding client base,” said
Howard Ryan, Founder of Desktop Alert Inc. “We made the decision to
outsource and needed to find a provider with a proven track record
for reliability and 24/7 capabilities. After several months of
testing
IronColo
was the only firm that consistently provided
immediate, personalized and highly technical assistance among our
test candidates. We did not want the typical data center support
experience that includes helpdesk incident tickets. Our clients
demand immediate assistance and reliable service so the choice was
made to contract with
IronColo
. As an integral part of our
application hosting solution,
IronColo
is as much a partner as a
provider, and the excellent working relationship we have developed
with them has a key part of this deal", added Ryan.
The Desktop Alert
Inc. and
IronColo
relationship will permit Desktop Alert to offer
customers a cost effective and
highly secure and scalable hosted
software solution.
“We are very
pleased to have been selected by Desktop Alert Inc. as their
Internet service provider of choice” said Michael Imbruce,
speaking for
IronColo
. “Application
availability and data security are essential elements of e-business.
IronColo
data centers
provide the foundation services necessary for sound system, security
and network architecture. This begins with comprehensive physical
safeguards, multilayer network security, redundant systems, and best
practice implementations. A range of
IronColo
managed services
including firewall, data backup and availability monitoring offer
complete the comprehensive solution focused offerings. ”
“Forming this
type of relationship with a rising star such as Desktop Alert is an
essential part of our own growth strategy, and we are excited to
play our role in this future success story” added Imbruce.
