Irvine,Ca based Protelligent,Inc has also opened a new Spokane Valley office. The new office will be small with 3 employees as of now, but may grow as business demands dictate. The local office is located at 15407 E. Mission Ave Suite 425 and the local office joins other company offices in Irvine and Las Vegas.

Protelligent sells cloud based backup and recovery services to businesses along side system monitoring and technology strategy development. A press release about the local office cites Protelligent as one of the "top 500 fastest growing Ingram Micro channel partners in the United States" .
