A world cup success for C Infinity connected online backup

I am always amazed and delighted to hear customer stories, but this was a score!

An online backup customer of ours, who is based in the UK, returned from South Africa a very happy person. While at the world cup he met an old business acquaintance and was introduced to a new prospect who he was able to wow with a presentation from his laptop that he left in London! He recovered the presentation using connected secure access, and managed to fit a business meeting into his trip!

So England may not have got their result, but he may well have!
