The EXB-0131 Extends the online database services of ADICO Corporation
Background |
|
ADICO Corporation is a mid-size Japanese-owned company. It was founded in 1986 in Osaka, Japan. It contributes to the knowledge and information transfer by serving research and educational communities with quality content of scientific research achievements through media as journals, books, documents and database. Its customers are librarians and researchers whose working fields are ranging from biology, chemistry, medicine, medical, biochemistry, nutrition, ecology to environmental engineering, and more. The new millennium forced ADICO to adapt to a technological and environmental change in customers’ needs. They began to provide services not only by print media, but also electronic media, which helps scientists and engineers acquire information in a fast method, and better quality and quantity also. ADICO increasingly relies on the electronic media and web to distribute
information to customers. Its sales executives need to present and demonstrate
their database. In addition they need to access the company proprietary
databases to enter and update potential customers’ information. Likewise,
researchers also turn to the web to inquire about this information and/or
documents. |

Yamamoto, product director of ADICO Corporation, always maintains the electronic demonstration files in his notebook in good status for he needs to show their services to his clients. “We have the ability to blend technology and journals in a seamless combination to bring the customers’ information at hand. So it‘s important for us to demonstrate data and information to our customers on a abundant level with integrity,” said Yamamoto. Working with such massive amounts of files and visual imaging in a hectic working schedule, it is important for Yamamoto to backup his notebook and keep available status. “Once I tried to do a small recovery of erroneously deleted files. Using the previous removable disk drive, I found that some files were not included, while others were corrupted," said Yamamoto. Therefore, he thought about finding a dependable, easy-to-administer backup solution that protects his data and offers fast, reliable recovery without having much IT skills. |

| Yamamoto was finally recommended a viable solution from a
technical advisor at SI Company, a USB2.0 storage solution, the EXB-0131, as it
is a sure way to back up externally and effortlessly.
After evaluating this alternative, Yamamoto thought the security offered by the EXB-0131 is more than justified the price. With the EXB-0131 in hand, Yamamoto and his colleagues can rest easy about their data. The powerful software, ExBoot, has a dependable, easy-to-use console that their non-technical background team can maintain. They can now quickly recover any data lost or track pervious versions, allowing them to get back to work with minimal interruptions. The USB 2.0 port of the EXB-0131 eases the plug and play steps delivering data transfer rates of up to 480MBps, which speeds up backup and restores the process. Yamamoto and other sales executives manually back up through one-touch button prior to every business trip just as another safe guard to ensure the data is up-to-date. The compact size is also beneficial because they need to travel frequently between their offices and client’s locations in the major cities of Japan. “It's just a secure, good feeling to know if there is a bad crash or mistakes in the system, I can be back up and be running in no time,” Yamamoto said. He brings the EXB-0131 with himself at every business call for demonstration of their products and services. Yamamoto used to back up his data through an external hard drive at a twice-a-week schedule. Now he depends on automatic incremental support, which facilitates backup in less time. “The EXB-0131 is a great helper,” said Yamamoto. “I don’t worry about retrieving my data while I am in the middle of each business trip. In fact, the EXB-0131 made us a professional image that I also have recommended it to two of my customers who feel the same way I do about data backup.” The EXB-0131 wins users’ confidence and puts them at ease knowing their data always stands by you if you need it there. |
