provider of solutions <strong>to</strong> move, manage <strong>and</strong> protect content within enterprise collaboration platforms, <strong>to</strong>day<br />
announced that the <strong>Theo<strong>to</strong>kos</strong> <strong>Foundation</strong> is using <strong>Metalogix</strong> Essentials for <strong>Office</strong> <strong>365</strong> <strong>to</strong> manage its <strong>Microsoft</strong> <strong>Office</strong><br />
<strong>365</strong> environment, while assuring comprehensive backup, data protection <strong>and</strong> disaster recovery (DR) for all internal<br />

With guidance from its trusted IT solutions advisor <strong>Orthology</strong>, a leading provider of enterprise s<strong>to</strong>rage, virtualization,<br />
DR, business continuity <strong>and</strong> security solutions, the <strong>Theo<strong>to</strong>kos</strong> <strong>Foundation</strong> evaluated multiple products, only <strong>to</strong> find that<br />
they were either <strong>to</strong>o complex, lacked the required features or proved <strong>to</strong> be <strong>to</strong>o expensive – especially for a non-profit.<br />
For instance, Koumarianos found that Veeam <strong>Backup</strong> for <strong>Office</strong> <strong>365</strong> seemed <strong>to</strong> be a better fit for Exchange versus<br />
<strong>Office</strong> <strong>365</strong>, but would have been far more complicated <strong>to</strong> manage. The organization then evaluated <strong>Metalogix</strong><br />
Essentials for <strong>Office</strong> <strong>365</strong> <strong>and</strong> discovered the solution met all of its needs – from features <strong>and</strong> functionality <strong>to</strong> cost.<br />
"From the beginning, we felt confident that <strong>Metalogix</strong> Essentials was the right solution <strong>to</strong> address the <strong>Theo<strong>to</strong>kos</strong><br />
<strong>Foundation</strong>'s <strong>Microsoft</strong> <strong>Office</strong> <strong>365</strong> management requirements," said Demi Kyriazi, CEO, <strong>Orthology</strong>. "And, after<br />
successful completion of the free trial our expectations were not just met, but exceeded."<br />
<strong>Metalogix</strong> Essentials now enables the <strong>Theo<strong>to</strong>kos</strong> <strong>Foundation</strong> <strong>to</strong> au<strong>to</strong>mate the provisioning <strong>and</strong> management of its<br />
<strong>Office</strong> <strong>365</strong> users <strong>and</strong> licenses. It gives the non-profit the ability <strong>to</strong> manage <strong>Office</strong> <strong>365</strong> while improving adoption <strong>and</strong><br />
simplifying day-<strong>to</strong>-day administrative tasks. Delivering a complete platform for the deployment, management <strong>and</strong><br />
security of <strong>Office</strong> <strong>365</strong>, Essentials also gives the <strong>Theo<strong>to</strong>kos</strong> <strong>Foundation</strong> complete backup <strong>and</strong> granular res<strong>to</strong>re<br />
capability for <strong>Office</strong> <strong>365</strong> data, delivering the protection it needs against accidental deletion, modification or corruption of<br />
content.<br />
“<strong>Metalogix</strong> Essentials provided just what we needed <strong>to</strong> protect our vital information, in an easy <strong>to</strong> deploy <strong>and</strong> manage<br />
package,” said George Koumarianos, IT Manager, <strong>Theo<strong>to</strong>kos</strong> <strong>Foundation</strong>. “Moreover, right away we could see that it<br />
was much more flexible than any other solution we evaluated. With <strong>Metalogix</strong> Essentials in place, the <strong>Theo<strong>to</strong>kos</strong><br />
<strong>Foundation</strong> now enjoys complete peace of mind that our data is highly available, reliably protected <strong>and</strong> ready for fast<br />
<strong>and</strong> simplified recovery if needed.”<br />
With the success of its <strong>Office</strong> <strong>365</strong> deployment, The <strong>Theo<strong>to</strong>kos</strong> <strong>Foundation</strong> is already planning for its upcoming<br />
SharePoint cloud initiative. “Once our users have been trained on SharePoint, we will also use <strong>Metalogix</strong> <strong>to</strong> optimize<br />
<strong>and</strong> protect our SharePoint data in the cloud,” said Koumarianos. “<strong>Metalogix</strong> has more than proven itself across our<br />
<strong>Office</strong> <strong>365</strong> environment, <strong>and</strong> we will without hesitation deploy it <strong>to</strong> support our SharePoint environment as well.”<br />
