In this episode I talk with Dan Pearson, Chief Technology Officer and founder at CT4. CT4 has a vision to create and distribute world-class software products that control and protect data while also translating data into meaningful insights, clear actions and measurable outcomes for their clients. Dan and I talk about how CT4, like many, started out in traditional managed hosting of Virtual Machines, client desktops and alike. However, like most innovative companies today, CT4 have evolved into a data centric company with three products in market led by. Cirrus offers back up your Microsoft data protecting SharePoint, Outlook, OneDrive and Teams from accidental deletion or ransomware. Dan and I also talk about their IoT offering Canopy and how data has become central to all offerings that CT4 do.
CT4 was founded in 2009 and is Head Quartered out of Brisbane, Australia.
