CITGO Petroleum Corporation, a major oil supplier and refining giant has selected the Smart ILM™ Suite from NTP Software, the worldwide leader in the management and control of unstructured data, to gain real-time control over storage growth. CITGO’s investment is based on benefits offered by the NTP Software QFS™ Family of Products, the On-ramp to ILMSM.

Based in Houston, Texas, CITGO is a refiner and marketer of transportation fuels, lubricants, petrochemicals, refined waxes, asphalt and other industrial products. As one of the largest suppliers of petrochemicals in the world, CITGO needed a scalable solution that provided robust flexibility to both control content and manage storage growth across their enterprise environment. CITGO’s selection of NTP Software’s Smart ILM Suite™ of products, including NTP Software QFS™ and NTP Software Storage M&A™ further validates NTP Software’s position as clear market leader in the management and control of unstructured data.

“Leading organizations like CITGO demand the most flexible, feature-rich solutions in the industry,” said Aaron Dufoe, vice president of sales at NTP Software. “We are happy to see that our continued investment in providing innovative ILM solutions to help organizations better manage their storage assets is paying off via their greater and greater adoption in the marketplace.”
