Today is a big day for StorONE and another significant milestone for our organization. We are at a significant turning point as we move from a pure technology company to a storage vendor along with the acquisition of a leading storage analyst firm, Storage Switzerland.
Through the acquisition of Storage Switzerland and their highly regarded team, our new Chief Marketing Officer George Crump will help lead our marketing efforts and becomes an integral part of our executive management team. His decades of experience identifying the most cutting-edge storage solutions for IT decision-makers are a perfect fit for our growing organization. He also brings a proven track record of developing and empowering executive teams, engineers, product management, and expanding channels in large organizations.
StorONE is a very different startup. From day one, we’ve rethought how to solve today’s storage challenges, spending nine years on developing a game-changing storage platform instead of integrating existing libraries with a new user interface. There are no shortcuts to developing something this revolutionary, and now, with the addition of Storage Switzerland and George Crump, we are moving from a technology company to a storage vendor that will focus more on marketing and customer enablement.
We developed an enterprise storage platform that enables any storage use case. With our recent development and success, StorONE has now become a storage vendor like NetApp, IBM, and Dell-EMC. We have an entire portfolio of storage solutions that can support any customer and any storage use case, all built from the same core platform.
We will focus even more on delivering our vision – THINK RESULTS. In 2020, with the new even higher performance and higher capacity drives coming to market, band-aid storage solutions are too expensive and won’t scale. The mission is to provide the storage manager with a platform that can support any use case with minimal hardware and lower costs while delivering higher performance, maximum flexibility, and reduced complexity. StorONE’s S1 Enterprise Storage Platform accomplishes this mission.
At StorONE, we provide solutions that no other storage vendor in the market can offer. Our main advantages are:
1. Maximum per drive performance. Three drives are enough to achieve one million IOPS.
2. Complete data protection, retention, and integrity without adding more components and complexity.
3. Full flexibility with the ability to mix and match any media type and any protocols within the same volume.
4. Reduce storage costs without compromising on performance or data protection.
StorONE is experiencing unprecedented growth. I invite storage integrators or resellers to become our partner and join us on this journey. With StorONE, you will now be able to provide all storage solutions for all use cases on a single platform from a single vendor for all your customers’ storage needs.
We have demonstrated the power of our software. Now is the time to help our customers understand how that power translates into solving all of their storage challenges. The Storage Switzerland team is renowned for explaining these concepts to IT professionals, and I’m excited to welcome them to the StorONE family.
