Record Sales Growth for Unitrends

Unitrends announced record-setting fourth quarter results.

The Company’s sales growth follows key announcement milestones including the launch of the new Unitrends Recovery-7 Series of data protection vault and cross-vault (replication) appliances and the increase in platform support to over 100 different versions of operating systems and applications.

“Small and medium businesses embrace Unitrends solutions because they offer superior price, performance and value for over 100 different versions of operating systems and applications,” said Coney. “We are pleased by our rapid growth and are proud to play such an increasing role in the protection of today’s business’ valued data. We are looking forward to another high-growth year in 2010 as we continue to deliver solutions for rapid recovery that is integrated, simple and elegant.”

Offering the lowest total cost of ownership in the industry, Unitrends products feature a compelling ‘No Limits’ licensing approach which offers freedom from not only traditional client-based licensing but removes storage-based licensing so that customers can store as much on the device as they wish until the physical capacity is full.
