ISLANDIA, N.Y., June 8 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- CA Technologies
(Nasdaq: CA) today announced a new dedicated Managed Service
Provider (MSP) licensing program in North
America designed to meet the growing demand from service
providers to offer customers acclaimed CA ARCserve® data
protection, recovery and availability products on a convenient
monthly licensing basis with no upfront costs.
Initially launched in Europe in
April, the new CA ARCserve MSP Program enables MSPs and ISVs with a
hosted offering to license the CA ARCserve Family of Products on a
monthly subscription basis to provide cost effective, value-added
services to customers.
The new CA ARCserve MSP program is available in North America through Ingram Micro's licensing
sales group. It complements the subscription pricing that CA
Technologies already offers MSPs for Nimsoft and 3tera AppLogic
products -- creating even more revenue-generating potential for CA
Technologies' MSP partners.
"CA Technologies has a history of delivering innovative programs
and pricing strategies designed to make it practical and profitable
for partners to leverage our rich technology portfolio to offer
customers significant business value," said Adam Famularo, senior vice president and general
manager of CA Technologies' Recovery Management and Data Modeling
business unit. "With our new CA ARCserve MSP Program, we are
providing our partners with a wealth of new business opportunities
to offer value-added services and cost-effective choices to protect
their customers' critical information assets."
By participating in the CA ARCserve Managed Service Provider
Program, MSPs have a fast, simple on-ramp to offering a wide
variety of hosted data protection solutions, including remote
backup and failover services, protection of hosted applications,
and storage as a service. The program is designed help fortify
MSPs' existing services with dependable data protection
technology.
Widespread Partner Support
Leading MSP partners, platform providers and distributors have
expressed support for CA Technologies' new program:
- "In the current economic environment where credit remains
tight, MSPs are looking for additional flexibility in the way they
license products from vendors," said Justin
Crotty, vice president of services, North America for Ingram Micro, the world's
largest technology distributor. "CA Technologies has risen to the
challenge with their new CA ARCserve Managed Service Provider
Program, and we are excited to continue our partnership with them
as we bring this tremendous offering to market."
- "With more than 10 years as an MSP for disaster recovery, we're
committed to the CA ARCserve product family for the recovery
solutions we've developed to protect our customers' businesses,"
said Gregory Tellone, COO of

Business Recovery, powered by CA ARCserve High Availability. "The
flexibility of the new licensing model provided by the CA ARCserve
MSP Program is exactly what our customers have asked for and
further enables our offerings of simple, cost effective data
protection and recovery solutions for their ever changing IT and
business continuity requirements."
- "We've worked closely with CA Technologies to help ensure
seamless interoperability between the underlying ARCserve products
in their offering and our remote monitoring and management (RMM)
software, Managed Workplace," said Peter
Sandiford, CEO of Level Platforms, a leading provider of RMM
solutions to the MSP market. "Mutual MSP customers looking to build
remotely managed data protection services will find that the
integration of our complimentary solutions allows them to deliver
and demonstrate absolutely reliable performance of this critical
function resulting in true peace–of-mind to their customers."
- "We look to partner with vendors who have the most complete
product portfolios, the best education and technical assistance,
and the most compelling licensing options," said Vinny DiSpigno, CEO of Webistix, Inc., a
New York-based MSP. "CA

effective than ever to build service offerings that address
