Array Networks Launches Business Continuity Prepaid Licenses

Reported by Industry Standard on Monday, 9 November 2009 (on November 9, 2009)

Array Networks has announced the launch of the Array Business Continuity (ABC) Pre-Paid License. The ABC licenses are included in Array's desktop remote access solution DesktopDirect, which allows office users to continue to work remotely as if they were at their desktop. With these pre-paid licenses, small-to-medium businesses and enterprises can now be fully prepared for potential business disruptions -- at a fraction of the cost compared to traditional business continuity licenses.
"In designing a business continuity plan, companies face tough decisions in choosing the level of preparedness compared with costs, especially on a smaller budget," said Sunil Cherian, Vice President of Product Marketing, Array Networks. "Facing this trade-off, some companies opt not to include remote access due to costs -- leaving them vulnerable to productivity and revenue loss in the event of a swine flu outbreak, strikes and bandhs or similar disruption. With this built-in pre-paid license approach, we're offering a middle ground where all businesses can be fully prepared without breaking the bank," he said
According to Array networks, the pre-paid ABC license enables desktop remote access for ten non-consecutive days of emergency use. When used within a pre-defined normal usage threshold, the license allows concurrent users to access DesktopDirect without depleting multiple days of pre-paid licenses. This enables companies to maximize each daily license, which minimizes costs by avoiding new license purchases sooner than necessary, informed the company. These ten non-consecutive days may stretch over years.
Desktop remote access is provided for employees through DesktopDirect's premise-based architecture, which keeps office data secure through authentication, strong network security and flexible administrative control. The solution's unique WAKE-on-LAN technology allows users to turn office computers on and off remotely -- resulting in significant energy savings and improved security by only requiring office computers to be turned on as needed, the company said.
DesktopDirect is available on any Array SPX Universal Access Controller.
