Iomega Corp. (Booth 412), a provider of data storage and protection solutions, introduced its OfficeScreen managed security services for small and medium businesses to service providers, resellers, agents and brokers.
Iomega’s managed services products, branded OfficeScreen, include firewall/VPN, Secure Socket Layer (SSL) and IPSec (IP security) bundles. OfficeScreen products create secure WANs that connect remote offices and workers to applications and data at a company’s headquarters, while countering threats from hackers, worms and viruses across a company’s entire network.
“Iomega’s OfficeScreen managed services are a great addition to a portfolio for service providers, agents and others that meet the communication needs of today’s SMBs,” said Rich Tear, Iomega’s vice president of managed services. “Today’s SMBs have the same network security needs as Fortune 100 companies, but need affordable, scalable options. OfficeScreen delivers these solutions to the end user through service providers and agents, who receive lucrative payment models with upfront or residual commissions but do not need to worry about capital expenditures or lengthy ROI periods,” he continued.
“Iomega is a name that has been trusted by SMBs for over 25 years, and OfficeScreen is a value-add offering for the seller and a win-win for everyone involved.”
Iomega said hundreds of small and medium businesses in the United States utilize OfficeScreen as a secure, reliable outsourced network security and VPN service that is inexpensive and does not require upfront hardware expenses, dedicated IT resources or large budgets.
Service providers and agents can offer these service products immediately and with no technical training required. In addition, service providers have the choice of branding OfficeScreen managed services as an extension of their own organizations — in effect, their own specialized security arm.
Iomega OfficeScreen team members are there to support sellers from the beginning of a customer conversation. The service provider or agent owns the relationship with its end user, while Iomega delivers the product and expert support from the minute a discussion with an end user begins — which includes determining the customer’s requirements and providing a proposal with specific recommendations — to customer support for the length of the contract, the company said.
