Change Recognizes New Ownership and Leverages Strength of Product
Line and Brand CHICAGO, April 24 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ --
ActionFront Data Recovery Labs, a leader in resolving
business-critical data loss, will henceforth be known as
"ActionFront Data Recovery Labs, a Seagate Company" to reflect its
new status as a wholly owned subsidiary of Seagate Technology. The
addition of ActionFront Data Recovery Labs enables Seagate to
provide a continuum of full service to its customers worldwide.
Through its ownership by Seagate, ActionFront Data Recovery Labs is
now uniquely positioned to benefit directly from Seagate's
extensive engineering and other resources, bringing valuable
insight and advancement to the data recovery industry. Seagate, the
world's leading hard drive manufacturer and innovator, is renowned
for exceptional product quality supported by its unprecedented
five-year limited warranty. Seagate also provides back-up products
and services to protect hard drive content vulnerable to human
error, viruses, natural disasters and device failure. As a last
line of digital defense for data loss, Seagate has now enhanced its
data protection offerings by introducing data recovery as a
separate service from Seagate's limited warranty that customers can
purchase if they ever need it. Following a comprehensive,
world-wide search for a partner with which to provide data recovery
services, Seagate selected ActionFront. "ActionFront Data Recovery
stood well ahead of its competitors in the areas of recovery
success rates, server recovery expertise, R&D commitment and
customer service excellence," stated Mark Grace, Senior Vice
President, Seagate Sales Operations and Services. "In addition,
ActionFront was the only data recovery organization that had
implemented a structured quality management system with ISO
9001:2000 certification." The highly successful launch of Seagate
Data Recovery Services in April 2005, under contract with
ActionFront, was followed by Seagate's acquisition of the company
in late 2005. "By combining our organizations' competencies, we are
now able to provide superior data recovery services from the
world's most trusted and reputable source of storage technology,"
Grace commented. "With the addition of ActionFront, Seagate has
become the only hard drive manufacturer to widely offer data
recovery services." "ActionFront will truly benefit from Seagate's
technical and logistic leadership while continuing to remain
hardware agnostic," says Ron Austin, President of ActionFront.
"Rest assured, the vast majority of data recovery cases we handle
involve non-Seagate products." About ActionFront Data Recovery
