EVault, Inc., a Seagate Company, and Cequel Data Centers, LLC, today announced that Cequel Data Centers has joined the EVault® Partner Program and will promote and sell EVault’s cloud-connected™ backup and recovery services at its locations across the United States.

Cequel Data Centers owns Dallas, Texas-based Colo4, Perimeter Technology in Oklahoma City and Tulsa, Oklahoma, and TierPoint in Spokane, Washington. The three managed services providers currently offer primary and secondary backup and colocation services, and are now extending their cloud services to offer the EVault integrated suite of award-winning, cloud-connected backup solutions.

“As a colocation and managed services company with multiple data centers across the country serving a wide range of customers and industries, it is important for us to offer the best data storage options and continually work to expand our offerings,” said Andy Stewart, vice president of corporate development for Cequel. “Partnering with EVault enables us to deliver a unified solution across all of our markets, allowing us to provide our customers with a range of features and services that go above and beyond what single-site operators can offer.”

EVault provides onsite, cloud, and cloud-connected — or hybrid — data protection solutions to help organizations protect and access their business data. EVault has led the industry in the move to hybrid storage models, with a uniquely integrated ecosystem of EVault storage software, SaaS, managed services, and appliances that help ensure customers maintain business continuity in multi-platform, multi-site environments. EVault data protection, disaster recovery and other storage services are optimized to perform in a distributed environment; supported by a secure, reliable cloud storage infrastructure; and backed by the highest quality customer service.

“Building a strong partnership with a respected national colocation and managed services provider like Cequel is instrumental to EVault’s growth and success,” said Dave Hallmen, vice president of sales and marketing, EVault, Inc. “By joining forces with a national provider of carrier-neutral, data center colocation services to distribute our cloud-connected services, EVault is able to complement our award-winning backup and recovery solutions with Cequel’s leading offerings.”
