Grupo Urbegi is one of our most important clients using the SME Enterprise File Fabric."

Cristina Solar, Finance Director from Grupo Urbegi, said: "We are operating in Spain, Colombia and Mexico in our 10 offices. After evaluating other providers, we decided to implement the Storage Made Easy solution as it was the best product we tested so far. We needed to set governance and audit controls, and also had a requirement for a Hybrid Solution to access data in a secure way on different public clouds. We are a company with an emphasis on adhering to the law with regards to protection of personal data, particularly as we work with vulnerable people. It is therefore imperative for us to know who, where and when data is being accessed."

Storage Made Easy CEO Jim Liddle said, "Security and privacy are without a doubt the biggest concerns when it comes to adoption of the cloud. A company often feels that it loses direct control over many aspects of security with regards to data stored on Cloud. The Storage Made Easy solution provides a way of handing control back to companies so that they can easily policy set, control and monitor data, in addition full audit logging reports that can be handed off to a compliance officer if required."
