North Texas Solutions Announces Partnership With Connected TLM



June 12, 2005 -- North Texas Solutions is now offering complete online backup services for its small business clients. This service will be able to provide a cost-effective way for business owners to secure critical business data and ensure minimal disaster downtime.

"It is a great service for the small business owner," said Derrick Murray, owner of North Texas Solutions. "It allows the small business owner the same security and peace of mind regarding their data without the high costs of backup tapes, equipment, and software." Some clients have already seen a reduction in IT costs, Murray said. "We have a client in Irving that has stopped buying backup tapes for three servers. They have migrated completely to an online solution. When you consider that number of servers rotating through 5 tapes a week, it doesn't take very long to see the cost benefit. They have also saved money by eliminating offsite storage fees."

Advancements in high-speed data transfers and the affordability of broadband service has allowed us to move into this market, Murray continued. "As costs continue to decrease for a variety of technologies, we will be able to provide a higher level of service and reliability."

Pam Slovak-Howard, president of Professional Insurance Resources (http://pro-insurance.com/) in Grapevine, TX said, "The backup program offered by North Texas Solutions is a lifesaver for our firm. We are a small company and many times fail to backup because it is so difficult and time consuming. I especially like the way I can see what files were backed up and all of the detail."

North Texas Solutions has partnered with Connected TLM to provide the software and storage support for North Texas Solutions. Connected Corporation is the world's leading provider of storage software for automated protection, archiving and recovery of distributed data. Connected Corporation is a subsidiary of Iron Mountain Incorporated.

"We're very excited to have a partner in Connected," Murray said. "Iron Mountain has the best reputation in archiving and data warehousing, and we feel they will continue to be a leader in this field through new technologies like online backup services."
