July 14, 2009 - PRLog -- Iddea Group is one of the first firms in Northwest Indiana to offer hosted virtual information technology (IT) services. From hosted virtual desktops to on-demand servers, Iddea Group offers organizations of all sizes an opportunity to significantly reduce IT expenses while improving operations through virtualization.

IDDEA is an acronym for Innovative Design, Disciplined Execution and Accountability, and is the brainchild of co-founders Mike Heinold and Glenn Abbett. “In my years as manager of Abbett Farms, LLC., I experienced first-hand the benefit of  virtual technology and the cost-savings it can provide” says Abbett.  “Mike and I developed the concept for Iddea Group and launched our new firm in order to bring the benefits of virtual technology to other small- and medium-sized businesses.”
Iddea Group differentiates itself from other IT providers because virtual IT is all they “do.” Virtual IT,  a component of cloud computing, allows Iddea Group customers to avoid capital expenditures on hardware, software, and technology services because IT hardware, applications and software are delivered as a service from “the cloud” (a general term for services hosted on an external network – public or private ) where customers pay only for what they use. Virtual IT services are billed similarly to a utility (such as electricity) where one pays only for the resources consumed, significantly shrinking upfront technology costs.

Using enterprise-grade solutions ensures that Iddea Group’s customer data is properly managed and completely secure. This not only significantly increases security of intellectual property and customer data, but also increases application performance, availability and the ability to load-balance high-speed, multi-homed bandwidth in an on-demand fashion, something typically fiscally out of reach for small- and medium-sized business. And because customers can pay-as-they grow, on-demand servers and storage allow them to expand capacity as business expands, saving on up-front costs.

Among the cost-saving customized services offered by Iddea Group:

Iddeal DesktopsSM
o   Hosted desktops that look, feel, operate and perform just like a conventional desktop but instead of storing mission-critical software and data on PC’s, hosted desktops are securely hosted in remote state-of-the-art data centers where everything is managed centrally and securely.

Iddeal ServersSM
o   Multiple servers on just one physical server, hosted on a secure-site data center on state-of-the-art hardware.  

Iddeal RecoverySM
o   Simplifies data backups - eliminating the need for antiquated tape back-up systems. In the event of a data loss, Iddeal Recovery restores files and entire set-up with a click of the mouse ensuring virtually uninterrupted continuity of business activity.

Iddeal ConsultingSM
o   For clients wanting to utilize the Iddeal IT model or enterprise class storage in-house, Iddeal Consulting provides the on-call experts to help easily and effectively plan, implement and maintain systems.

Iddea Group offers the best in virtual IT with fault tolerance and security typically only available to the largest enterprises. Their facilities offer world-class security, power, cooling, fire suppression, advanced cabling systems, and fully redundant managed Internet connectivity. In addition to an alternate data center, Iddea Group’s expert technical staff and recovery processes ensure consistent recovery success.
