Our recovery following Hurricane Wilma went beautifully. We have enjoyed the opportunity of referring Agility to many companies across the United States and we would recommend it to any business. We're hoping we'll go a few more years without a hurricane, but we know with Agility, should it happen, we're in the position to address the needs of our many customers.

Name fits: Agility Recovery Solutions comes to rescue
Charlotte Business Journal - by Ashley M. London
The endless rains and floods in Iowa have wreaked havoc on businesses there and a Queen City company is among those coming to the rescue.
Locally based Agility Recovery Solutions works with companies nationwide on disaster preparation and relief. Companies large and small buy monthly memberships starting at $250 and up in exchange for Agility's ongoing consulting and recovery services.
That explains how a Cedar Falls food company and two insurance agencies in Cedar Rapids looked to Charlotte for help when the floods came this month.
For the food company, Agility restored Internet service within a day-and-a-half, shipping a satellite dish and finding a link to get the company back online. One of the insurance companies lost power and Internet service, with Agility providing a generator and a satellite dish. For the other firm, Agility delivered 100 laptops for employees within 17 hours of the request.
"They're paying to have us there when they need us," says Lee Freedman, Agility communications manager. "When things like this happen, most of us are trying to figure out our personal lives. That's where our service comes in, we help figure out your business life."
And it seems there is no shortage of work.
