The Backblaze-CTERA partnership establishes a compelling, new, cost-effective storage option for companies that wish to tier their data to the cloud for redundancy and collaboration.”

“If you’re tired of buying new equipment every three years, replacing hard drives, paying for maintenance, or power, or space in a data center, and all of the headaches of managing remote user access,” Nilay Patel, VP of Sales at Backblaze noted, “then the CTERA and Backblaze partnership is perfect for you. The setup is incredibly easy and the immediate budget and staffing relief will give you resources to tackle new opportunities. You’ll never have to—or want to—upgrade your NAS again.”
