Project & Portfolio Management (PPM) Software Hosting Services

The quality of our world-class hosting operations is one more factor that distinguishes PowerSteering Software from other SaaS providers.

Our hosting services feature application and system maintenance, security, backup and recovery capabilities to give you peace of mind. They also deliver performance and upgrades to keep your software running at full speed, all the time. Better yet, with PowerSteering's Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) model, your IT team can focus on value-added activities rather than hosting-related issues.

Stringent Security Measures

We provide SAS-70, Type II-certified hosting in SunGard's state-of-the-art, tier one data center. The facility is fortified with 24x7 onsite security, redundant and failover power grids, and surveillance. All data is physically secured and accessible only by valid and identity-verified staff.

In addition, our application is:

• Delivered via a secured connection — HTTP + SSL (HTTPS)
• Requires a high-security Web browser (128-bit or higher)
• Earned an above-average security rating by FishNet Security, the leader in information security solutions

Rigorous Backup Procedures

• PowerSteering data is electronically vaulted in multiple secure locations at AmeriVault. Backups, which take place each night, are:
• Fully encrypted
• Verified in daily reports
• Quality-checked
• Maintained for one year

Disaster Recovery Plan

PowerSteering has extensive Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery plans that augment the stringent policies already in place at SunGard. We provide an extra level of protection through internal replication of the hosting environment to ensure you and our internal support teams have access to your site.

Seamless Upgrades

PowerSteering automatically deploys frequent, seamless upgrades without taxing your IT resources, so users are always on the most current software version. In addition, our standardized use of blade technology boosts the ease and speed of upgrades. We can also supply you with an optional staging area so you can upgrade on your schedule — allowing you to review configurations, testing or training.

Outstanding Uptime and Performance

With PowerSteering, you can count on 99.9% availability. We make continuous investments to accelerate performance regardless of where your users are located — and we're committed to monitoring performance metrics on an ongoing basis.
