Danfoss AS

Back-Up And Fastest Possible Recovery Across 3.000 Machines in manufacturing area
Similar to many other major globally operating manufacturing companies, Danfoss AS has thousands of production machines acquired over the years — and as a result, they need a back-up and recovery system that supports all operating systems seamlessly from early Windows 95 to the latest Microsoft Windows version

“Our goal within back-up is first and foremost to achieve the fastest possible recovery time, in case something goes wrong. In our world down time translates directly into lost profits”, says Jorgen Lassen, IT Professional at Danfoss AS in Nordborg, Denmark.

“For some time, we have been looking for a recovery management system, which allowed us to manage and operate all the various machines and OS platforms from within this one system. What we found as we started testing the R2 software solution, was not only a system supporting the broadest range of operating systems, but also one which offered the absolute fastest recovery. ”

Conformity And Simplicity
“The R2 software provides us with a straight-forward installation procedure and functionality, which has made it very easy to integrate across our different departments as well as different Windows platforms.”

“Another R2 advantage is that all management and deployment takes place from any computer connected to the network, allowing the IT Team to provide consistent service across different geographical locations. Additionally, when performing a back-up, all clients can be updated within a few minutes, regardless of location.”

Global Roll-out
Danfoss AS has so far implemented the R2 software solution across the manufacturing plants in Denmark, Poland and France. “We are currently planning roll-out in our Asian and North American facilities in spring 2007.”

Powerful Partnership
“We’ve come to know the R2 Software AS team as very engaged, flexible and responsive with regards to the issues we face as a major manufacturing company” Lassen says.

The Danfoss Group is a leader in development and production of mechanical and electronic products and controls. With manufacturing sites across Asia, Europe and North America, and revenues in excess US$3.000 Million, Danfoss is one of the largest Danish controlled manufacturing companies.
