FAQ - Software

Here are the key questions about our enterprise-software.

Why is a tailor-made enterprise software solution so important for your company?

We believe every IT infrastructure has unique requirements. That’s why we offer precisely adapted software packages—for example, for backup, SAN management, or virtualization. This guarantees that your server and storage landscape work together seamlessly and deliver top performance over the long term.

What types of software are included in our portfolio?

Our range covers all critical categories: backup programs, SAN-management tools, software-defined storage (SDS) solutions, virtualization platforms such as VMware or Windows Server, and Linux distributions for professional workloads. With these technologies we protect and optimize your workloads comprehensively.

We are particularly proud of our partnership with Archiware. Its powerful P5 software suite provides end-to-end data protection through backup, synchronization, and archiving—scalable to match your needs.

How do we ensure our software solutions work smoothly with your hardware?

Before releasing any product, we test it extensively in our lab—including comprehensive compatibility checks with current server hardware. This allows us to guarantee trouble-free integration and to advise you in depth on any specific requirements.

What advantages does our software selection offer for backup and archiving?

We stock only solutions that have proven themselves in demanding enterprise environments. Whether long-term archiving, rapid restore, or flexible storage utilization, our backup software delivers maximum data security and integrates seamlessly into your existing environment whenever needed.

 

Do we support you with installation, configuration, and ongoing operations as well?

Absolutely. Our team assists you from the initial consultation through implementation and ongoing operational support. If desired, we can also handle maintenance or offer service contracts with guaranteed response times—including 24×7×4 on-site intervention for urgent cases.
