“As a business providing replication of data over WAN, we’re responsible for more than 8TB’s of bandwidth on the ANZ networks” – said Viktor Babkov – Managing Director of Business Continuity. “We recognized the need to optimize the bandwidth, and challenged ourselves to find a product that could produce a high ROI for our customers. In a wide spread geography such as Australia, where bandwidth is not a cheap commodity, we looked for a cost-effective optimization technology – ideally without the additional appliance overhead. Our engineering team conducted thorough research and trialled a variety of offerings on the market. We have found Replify to be the only product that is purely a software offering, and not only does it accelerate site to site connectivity, but gives remote users working from home hotels, airports, a much smoother, and faster experience” continued Babkov. “Deployed as a virtual appliance at the head end and a remote site if applicable, on multitude of Hyper-Visors including VMWare, Hyper-V and Xen, – Replify stood out from competitors by significantly accelerating “Applications” not just links, thereby enabling more applications to be cloud friendly. The technology allowed as much as 98% offload in instances, and although the compression and optimization algorithms were similar to other competitors, Replify proved very light-weight as well as easy to use and administer – making it a turn-key choice for many”
“BC as a value added distributor (VAD) of market leading infrastructure optimization and protection software. We offer local 24×7 support, certified product training, presales and deployment consulting services in ANZ and Pacific Rim for marketing leading software. For us, the partnership with Replify was a natural progression of the business, however selecting a new product is not a task we look at lightly. We looked for reliability, and customer satisfaction from the technology, as well as the people – Replify stepped up to the challenge.” Concluded Mr Babkov.
