Den Braven Benelux opts to out-task the management of its backup environment to Proact

Den Braven, the specialized market leader in, among others, the production of high quality ISOcertified materials for the building sector, has chosen Proact as its new partner for managing their backup and fall-back environment.

Den Braven was looking for a partner who could be deployed as an extension for managing operations for which no specific knowledge of the application landscape of its organization is required.

Fred Vugts, ICT Manager, Den Braven Benelux: "We opted for Proact because of its expertise in the field of backup and the wide range of data centre solutions and cloud services. Proact has shown itself to be a flexible partner who is able to react quickly to our needs. This gives us a lot of confidence in the cooperation."

Through the out-tasking of the daily management of the back-up environment, Den Braven creates more time for its own IT team to focus on new applications and projects that add immediate value to the organization.

Lucas den Os, Managing Director of Proact Netherlands: "Out-tasking differs from out-sourcing in that the client retains the control. With its choice of Proact, Den Braven ensures access to best-in-class expertise, innovative products and a wide portfolio of cloud services. We look forward to becoming an extension of the IT department of Den Braven".
