Meet our team

Majority of us are experienced IT admins but there is a talented junior too in our team. We cooperate on daily basis and discuss work and personal experiences which keep us closely connected while working often remotely. We share our issues and victories and celebrate our success in making our storage/backup „empire“ automated, reliable and highly valued. We enjoy technologies we work with and thanks to close relationship with vendors we contribute to make them even better.
While maintaining professional approach on the outside, we are a great crew on the inside. We have both, a sense for detail and a sense of humor.
