SAN DIEGO--([ BUSINESS WIRE ])--[ BakBone Software ]® (Pink Sheets:BKBO), the leading provider of heterogeneous integrated data protection solutions, won Enterprise Project of the Year at this year's [ SNS Achievements in Technology Awards ] for Honda Racing F1 Team's deployment of [ NetVault ][ ® ][ : Backup ]. A panel of judges chose BakBone from multiple case studies, including entries from other leading storage vendors. The finalists were then voted on by readers of the UK magazine SNS.

BakBone NetVault: Backup allowed the IT team at Honda Racing F1 to implement a backup solution with zero impact on users. The customer's IT team attributes this to NetVault: Backup's serverless backups, direct backups across the SAN and the option to use either virtual or server client backup. Honda Racing F1 Team selected the solution after enlisting the help of BakBone's Platinum Partner NCE Computer Group.

"We already had a successful history with the Honda Racing F1 Team, and when it came time to deploy a new backup solution, we felt that BakBone would be the optimal solution for their environment," said John Greenwood, product sales director, at storage specialist reseller NCE. "We are absolutely thrilled to have a role in helping our customer and BakBone achieve the prestigious SNS award."

"Our congratulations go to BakBone and the Honda Racing F1 Team for the strong case study they put forward; over 3,000 votes were cast across the various categories, and this submission was the clear winner of the Enterprise Project of the Year Award," said Haroon Malik, publisher of SNS.
