NTI sees marketing and sales plans evolve; business community continues to invest in NonStop.



News continues to be bleak when it comes to events. For the NonStop community it’s more a case of there being plenty of support for events even when they cannot take place along traditional lines. The NonStop community has always been a community that enjoys opportunities to network but 2020 is a year in transition. For the foreseeable future it looks as though all events will be virtual!

Questions are now being asked as to whether this is the new reality. The new normal, if you like. However, history shows that communities adapt rapidly to changing conditions and as much as we like to network, it seems more than likely that virtual events will become increasingly fashionable. It’s hardly likely following investments in support of virtual events to see them fade away.

News out of Europe has just been received informing us all that the pan-European event hosted by GTUG will not go ahead as planned. Already postponed once, moving back from May to be rescheduled for September, the travel restrictions in place for most of the NonStop community meant that the likelihood of NonStop users showing up was getting slimmer by the day. GTUG will now be holding a virtual event the details of which will be publicized shortly.

For NTI this news didn’t come as a surprise. Having said that, NTI is fully behind virtual events and will be supporting GTUG to the fullest – hope you tune in to hear the presentations. Like many of our peers supporting the NonStop user community, we have become adept at working with Webinars, Podcasts, GoTo meetings, Zoom video conferencing and more. It’s just the way of the world these days and wherever you find the NTI team, they can be online ready to help in any way that they can.

One of the more obvious aspects of traditional events had been the opportunity to see vendor partnerships at work. The NonStop vendor community has always fostered cooperation between vendors and at NTI we have enjoyed working with many familiar names. Going virtual, we can only talk about these partnerships but rest assured, between the various management teams there is even more cooperation going on that we can recall seeing in the past.

Taking this one step further, we are really pleased to be able to talk about the success NTI is enjoying with the partnership it has with TANDsoft. We are pleased with the willingness of the NonStop community to embrace our latest product offerings FS Compare and FS Repair. Equipped with these products we are also pleased to see the NonStop community willing to entertain migrating off legacy offerings, poorly supported, to DRNet®. As for your team at NTI this has been an encouraging sign as NTI continues to invest in solutions best suited to day’s new world of edge-to-core “everything-as-a-service” model for hybrid IT.

Partnerships and migrations were the theme of the most recent article published in NonStop Insider, NTI applauds the commitments companies are making to NonStop; Business Continuity remains a priority. According to Tim Dunne, NTI’s Global Director, Worldwide Sales:

“It’s been a very good quarter for NTI in spite of all that we have been subject to as COVID-19 continues to infect our communities.

 “Having introduced TANDsoft’s FS Compare and FS Repair to our customers where we knew there would be a real need we have now seen interest in both products grow considerably.

“Providing even more encouragement for us here at NTI has been the traction we see developing that confirms DRNet® as a capable, direct replacement for alternative incumbent replication technologies.

“This upward trajectory in sales that we were confident would happen for some time now is just further proof of how well we are addressing the needs of NonStop users. This has led to several ‘new logo’ initiatives underway for our premier business continuity product offering, DRNet®.”

Events, Summits, Exhibitions and Symposiums – all providing valuable input for NTI!

The June through July period proved rather hectic as one event followed another. As the team returned from Leipzig, Germany, where the GTUG / European NonStop HotSpot 2018 had been held the plans were put in place to spend time with even more members of the Nonstop community. First it was a short trip to join with our good friends in Texas and Oklahoma for the N2TUG NonStop User Group meeting. A matter of a few days later, some of us then went to Las Vegas for HPE Discover 2018 before even more of the NTI team traveled  to Palo Alto for the NonStop Partner Technology Symposium 2018.  There is always something new that finds its way on to an agenda and there are always surprises. You don’t have to spend all that much time talking to your colleagues to better understand what was really being said between the lines, as it were. No, this time around HPE and the NonStop management held few punches as the transformation to Hybrid IT continues unabated. The NonStop user community is tu

Digging for oil – DRNet is helping NonStop users strike it rich!

NTI has been in business a very long time and has been providing support for NonStop users with its DR Net product set. Among its many customers there are numerous financial institutions relying on DR Net for data replication. When it comes to supporting payments solutions, these financial institutions cannot afford for their systems to be down for any reason and so historically, these institutions have depended upon DR Net to maximize their systems’ uptime, no matter what. However, DR Net offers so much more than just support for disaster recovery and with as much talk as there is today of maximizing the value locked away in the data these financial institutions accumulate over time, the replication capabilities of DR Net are being looked at again for DR Net applicability to integrate. In the post of April 2, 2018, reference is made to the recent article published in the March – April, 2018, issue of The Connection - Data is King: What NonStop Mission-Critical Applications
