EMC, a global provider of
information infrastructure solutions, and Lenovo, one of the world’s largest
makers of personal computers, have announced a global partnership to provide
an unlimited online data backup service specifically designed for the small
business professional.
The new service is available on all new Lenovo ThinkPad SL series notebooks
and is powered by EMC Mozy, the online data backup service for consumers and
businesses.
“We looked to EMC’s Mozy as the premier online data backup and storage
service for Lenovo customers,” said Henry Hicks, Vice President of Sales &
Marketing for Lenovo Worldwide Services.
“Because data protection and security are growing concerns for businesses we
wanted a world-class online data backup and storage solution to complement
Lenovo’s world-class products. EMC’s Mozy delivers that with the right level
of security and quality,” he said.
As small businesses around the world look for a cost-effective and easy way
to protect their information, they are increasingly looking to online
backup. Mozy provides a simple, automatic and secure online backup service
to more than 850,000 users across the globe.
The Lenovo Online Data Backup service is currently available in Singapore,
Philippines, Ireland, United Kingdom, South Africa, Australia, New Zealand,
United States and Canada. The service will soon be offered on a worldwide
basis for all Lenovo Think branded systems and will support seven languages.
Said Vance Checketts, Chief Operating Officer of EMC’s Mozy business unit,
“The Lenovo partnership accelerates our plans to expand the Mozy service
worldwide, and we look forward to offering international customer support
and localised language versions.”
The new Lenovo Online Data Backup service powered by EMC Mozy is available
immediately as a free 90-day trial with up to 5 GB of storage with the
purchase of select Lenovo notebook models. |
