EMC Corp. this week announced an agreement to provide storage management services to LERETA Corp. The national mortgage services firm has deployed EMC’s open networked information storage and suite of management software to reduce information technology costs, increase the value of its business information and deliver greater information access to its rapidly growing LERETA customer base.
Alan Brauer, LERETA’s chief information officer, said, “Responding to the information needs of customers is at the core of everything we do. EMC is best positioned to solve the complex information management problems that ensure the success of our business. In EMC, we found a storage partner with the single mission of managing and protecting our company’s information and the systems, software and network offerings to do it. Being able to quadruple our EMC storage without having to bring in another system administrator makes us more flexible in delivering new services to clients. When you add up these factors, the cost of managing EMC storage is significantly less than what would have been required had we gone with another vendor.”
David Donatelli, EMC’s Senior Vice President of Corporate Marketing and New Business Development, said, “Decisions like LERETA’s are being made every day by world-class organizations dedicated to the belief that information management can be a competitive weapon. More now than ever, EMC’s proven technologies and cost of ownership advantages bring customers the highest possible return on their information.”
