Our Approach
A Note From Contour's CEO
For nearly 12 years, we have been honored by the trust that our clients place in us to run their mission-critical business processes. Contour truly understands how challenging of a time this is for our customers and other businesses. But, in the face of that challenge, we also see opportunity. We see the opportunity to invest in the connections to each other that bring meaning to our work, the opportunity to lean on our company values and do what we believe is right, and the opportunity to support each other and to make our community even stronger.
Our goal is to help you protect your business and provide you with the ability to recover all your applications and servers in the Contour Cloud so that you can continue to run your business no matter what.
In an effort to support clients in this crisis especially as COVID-19 continues to spread, we have designed a simple 3 step process to keep your business safe and mitigate risk. Our solution will help protect your business from disasters like power loss, hacking and phishing, and any other social disruptions that could potentially occur.
Contour has taken on many complex challenges, and used our technologies to help others. As we continue to navigate this new normal, our commitment to you is that we will do whatever we can to support your organizations, share our learnings and help those who need it most. If you need anything else, please do not hesitate to contact your account team or the Contour Cares Support team at sales@contourds.com.
Kindness and patients will get us through this and we are here for you.
