Introduction
Setting out on a project to upgrade its existing object storage environments, G0T0 viewed data security as the most critical priority.
Partnering with Object First has enabled G0T0 to address this priority directly. Object First’s secure, simple, powerful backup storage solution not only helps G0T0 keep customer data safe from threats like ransomware, it’s also boosting the organization’s competitiveness in the crowded Managed Services market.
Challenge
G0T0 first discovered Object First through a simple internet search. According to Pierre Lefebvre, CEO at G0T0, the business was in the process of launching a project to upgrade its object environments—and Object First clearly stood out among the pack.
“The ‘security-by-design’ aspect was the most significant factor of Object First. As a business, we need to maintain a high level of security—and that includes not just the data we store, but also everything around system management.”
Solution
Object First’s Ootbi (Out-of-the-Box Immutability) appliance immediately rose to the top for both partner and customer, as it not only met these criteria but exceeded them. Veeam specialization was a particular draw for Stefan Feneberg, IT Manager at Hans Hundegger AG: “The absolute focus on Veeam made Object First stand out—no one else can deliver that. With this focus, it was really easy to implement a PoC, so we were really sure that this solution would work in our environment already before purchasing it.”
Result
Advanced security features like immutability—as well as extensive sales and marketing support—have enabled G0T0 to not only ensure the security of its customers’ data but also hone the business’ competitive offering and generate real sales pipeline for the future.
