The IASO story: Before and after GFI In January based in the Netherlands when - Channelpro-SMB spoke with René Oldenbeuving CEO of online IASO backup software vendor, there was no mention of plans to be acquired by an American company. At that time, GFI Software is a partner; IASO now part of GFI, which provides remote monitoring and management for MSPs and network security, anti-spam, patch management, fax, mail archiving, collaboration and Web monitoring. But we'll roll back the tape. According Oldenbeuving, IASO has developed its own cloud backup service seven years ago and entered the US market in 2012 through a partner who "sold so many licenses they have convinced us of go directly to the market. " There was no channel strategy until Tech Data Corp. intervened and provided a distribution agreement. the solution was originally developed as a software product for backing up servers, but in 2011 it was migrated to the cloud and storage was added. IASO had moved to a pay-as-you-go model - with the idea of recurring revenue for partners - and never looked back. Regarding a goal for IASO will, Oldenbeuving hope to be recognized as a superior backup service and see more revenue in the United States that the company in Europe. "So high expectations," he said. High expectations? Perhaps, but Oldenbeuving says the company fills a niche that goes beyond the competition. "Many of our competitors stop when the [backup] selected size is more than one terabyte, "he said. "While [beyond one terabyte] is a sweet spot, we can hit. We have a client with up to 50 terabytes." IASO has storage locations in London, Amsterdam, Düsseldorf, Sydney and Atlanta, with facilities in San Francisco and Toronto which should now be available.
