LifeKeeper for Exchange Product Review

DM Review magazine has published a very positive product review and profile of the LifeKeeper for Exchange selection and deployment at U of Tampa.   What makes this particular customer story special for us is that LifeKeeper was selected after a very rigorous evaluation process against all of our main competitors.  LifeKeeper stood up to everything thrown at it while the other solutions corrupted mailstores and/or had to be reinstalled in order to continue working. 

An excerpt from the review reads:

What sold our team on Steeleye's LifeKeeper software was the ability to control failover every time. We were very concerned about day-to-day IT issues such as short-term power failures, DNS failures, network card failures, normal shutdowns for system maintenance, etc. During testing, the other products continuously tried to failover during these forced outages, often resulting in a corrupt email system. LifeKeeper only attempted to failover when we wanted it to.

Another reads:

SteelEye was the only product of the three we evaluated that did not corrupt our email system when we forced a typical "problem" situation, such as simulating a network outage or a power outage. SteelEye was also the only application that we didn't have to continuously reinstall whenever we tried to failover. Other products tended to failover even when we did not intend to do so. Another important factor in the decision process was the strength of the software vendor's support team. Any prospective solution without support staff in the U.S. was eliminated from consideration.

Go team!
