Nine Technology, which sells online backup and recovery platforms, has announced the Association of Computer Repair Business Owners (ACRBO) has selected the “Powered by Nine” platform as a partner to Association members.

“Partnering with ACRBO was an easy decision for us,” said Gene Fay, Senior Vice President of Nine Technology. “The organization serves as an excellent forum for these business owners, and we’re glad to be working with them to offer the best online backup tools available today.”

Fay is scheduled to speak at the MSPWorld conference, collocated with ITEXPO West 2010. This event will feature several important keynote speeches focusing on techniques managed service providers can use to boost business and revenue, while also optimizing offerings.

ACRBO chose to endorse the Nine Technology products, according to ACRBO officials, after “consideration of its members’ needs and after testing of the system.” The Association of Computer Repair Business Owners is a trade association of Computer Repair Business owners, dedicated to the advancement of the Computer Repair Business through the building of trust and professionalism of its members, according to association officials.

“The Nine Technology line of disaster recovery tools will enable ACRBO member businesses to offer data protection service under their own names,” said Daniel Hand, President of the ACRBO. “As president of the ACRBO, and as a business owner offering ‘Powered by Nine’ online backup and recovery to my customers, I endorse Nine Technology.”

According to Hand, ACRBO member businesses will have access to both “Powered by Nine” online backup and the recovery products ONE, a backup and recovery tool for individual laptops and workstations, and PRO backup and recovery for business servers.

Members also get automatic upgrades to the software when they become available.

Fay will also present during a session today called, “Don’t Be Afraid of Twitter: How MSPs Can Use Social Media” this social media primer is scheduled for 10:30 a.m.
