Debriefing Software unveils new US Solutions Partner: Ocean Computer Group

Debriefing Software has unveiled a new reseller partner in the United States: Ocean Computer Group, a New Jersey-based IBM systems, storage and software solutions provider.

Ocean Computer Group is using Wizards Storage Portal’s hundreds of automated reports and alerts on customers’ IBM backup and storage environments to stay reactive to emerging issues with customers’ SAN Volume Controller (SVC) installations.

“Ocean Computer Group has a very strong experience and long list of customers using IBM Storwize and SVC. We have seen already with one of our major customers how Debriefing Software’s Wizard Storage Portal facilitates the monitoring and analysis of their storage installation. Having access to performance analysis 24/7 as well as automated alerts by SMS and email when thresholds are breached means our reactivity to any emerging issues is instant so our service levels remain extremely competitive,” said Lou Tsotakos, Ocean Computer Group’s CEO.

Wizards Storage Portal (WSP) is a cloud-based storage management portal for IBM Tivoli Storage Manager, Storwize and SVC. It monitors and analyzes IBM backup and storage performance in real-time with a user-friendly, customizable dashboard and more than 200 preconfigured graphs and reports. Delivered as a software-as-a-service offering, WSP helps enterprises manage their IBM backup and storage solutions more efficiently and effectively by eliminating routine and resource-demanding tasks with automated reports and alerts that help companies reduce both capital and operational expenditure.

With Wizards Storage Portal, enterprises can easily outsource the management of their IBM backup and storage to a reseller partner while sharing access to real-time performance data. Debriefing Software, a strong and supportive technology partner, won the 2013 IT Europa award for Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) Solution of the Year. Other resellers of Wizards Storage Portal for IBM backup and storage include Load System, Time Network Management, B4Restore and others.

“We are truly excited about the partnership with Ocean Computer Group, a highly successful solution provider and an outstanding IBM Business Partner. While we are seeing an increasing demand for WSP from North America based companies and organizations, it is encouraging to have partners like Ocean Computer Group such that we know that customer requirements are dealt with professionally and timely. We expect to continue our growth path, and we are delighted to do so in partnership with Ocean Computer Group,” said Paul Ström, Global Sales Director, Debriefing Software.
