May 29, 2009

CareWorks Technologies is pleased to announce that it acquired Plannet Group.  The acquisition will enable CareWorks, a member of the CareWorks Family of Companies, to provide clients with an affordable turnkey network and security management platform.

Plannet Group’s enterprise-grade technology gives business owners immediate access to their networks with real-time data displaying vital metrics (from the application to the endpoint) and complete reporting and alerting capabilities.

 “Business information must be secure and accurate at all times,” said Todd Cameron, President of CareWorks Technologies. “Joining forces with Plannet Group enables us to offer virtually any company protection from network sabotage, malicious behavior, or user error.”

“We take network management seriously and believe that businesses deserve an affordable way to remove the pain of network risk,” added Jim Mazotas, Founder and CEO of Plannet Group. “By leveraging our unique services with CareWorks’ exemplary reputation we’ve created a clear path to success for our customers.”
Plannet Group will move from Hilliard to CareWorks’ corporate office in Dublin.

Plannet is a graduate of the TechColumbus Business Incubator on Kinnear Road.  The incubator and business services provided by TechColumbus were instrumental in Plannet’s development and early success.  “We’re so pleased that CareWorks Technologies and Plannet have joined forces,” said Kevin Gadd, director of IT commercialization for TechColumbus.  “Plannet’s roots are here in Central Ohio, and this acquisition is another reflection of the strength of the region’s innovation and entrepreneurial economy.”
