Backup as a Service – Uncompromised Data Safety at an Affordable Monthly Rate

Companies today are switching to backup as a service (BaaS) solutions instead of setting up and maintaining their own backup and recovery infrastructure. They find it’s just smart business. Here’s why:

INCREASE AUTOMATION AND PRODUCTIVITY

Scheduled backup reports, paired with cloud backup enhancements – like continuous data protection – helps you save time while also saving you from data loss.

EASIER MANAGEMENT AND SCALABILITY

Offload maintenance and management to your cloud service provider instead of worrying about managing storage at an off-site location.

ENHANCED DATA SAFETY

Safeguard your data by keeping a copy off-site. By backing up corporate data remotely, you avoid simultaneously destroying both original data and backups should a physical disaster (like theft, fire or flood) or digital danger (like a network-wide malware infection) occur.

PHYSICAL DATA SHIPPING

Save data from your first full backup on a local hard drive if you have large amounts of data or a slow internet connection, and then ship the drive to a remote data center. There the initial seeding backup will be uploaded to the cloud storage. Only incremental backups will be saved to the cloud repository thereafter.

CUSTOMIZABLE BACKUP SCHEDULING

Perform manual or automatic backups according to the desired schedule and frequency – monthly, weekly, daily, hourly, or even every 10 minutes.

FLEXIBLE RETENTION POLICIES

Set up a backup retention policy and apply it to a specific device or a number of machines. You can store backups indefinitely, limit the number of backups per machine, or specify how long to keep backup files.

UNIVERSAL RESTORE

Recover Windows and Linux systems swiftly to the same, similar, or dissimilar hardware, including bare-metal, physical, virtual, or cloud environments using built-in Universal Restore technology.

SELF-SERVICE GRANULAR RECOVERY

Use the web console to search for specific documents, tables, emails, etc., and restore the lost data itself without having to recover an entire system.

INSTANT RESTORE

Achieve best-in-industry RTOs by starting any Windows or Linux system (physically or virtually) directly from the backup storage on your existing Microsoft Hyper-V or VMware vSphere ESXi host – without moving data.

ACTIVE PROTECTION

Prevent system downtime caused by ransomware with a unique, proactive technology that stops 99.99 percent of attacks. Any files impacted before an attack was deflected are automatically restored.

PROVEN ENCRYPTION AND PASSWORD PROTECTION

Maintain regulatory compliance by protecting your backups with AES-256 data encryption, so only you can access the data.
