The growth of the cloud backup industry, over the last decade has been dramatic. The market has witnessed the rise and fall of many startups and stabilization of others. Interestingly, the companies that have gained a strong foothold in the industry are not all similar. There is a subtle distinction in the nature and types of services they offer. Some of these companies are pure enablers, while others combine enablement functions with direct-to-market services. Yet others, may license the software from enablers with or without re-branding options and service the cloud backup service needs of their clients.

Five distinct categories can be identified as under (click on links for details):
1/ Pure Enabler
2/ Enabler & Service Provider – Channel or Direct
3/ Service Provider – Channel Only
4/ Service Provider – Channel and Direct
5/ Service Provider – Direct Only (For complete list of companies, see our top monthly ranking list)

Based on a number of factors, such as technology, features, easy of use, dedication to MSPs, channel, revenue structure, reputation, support, price entry point, value, and corporate culture of the companies, we have summarized our rankings.

The companies are categorized in their respective columns. If we have made an error in the category or companies have changed their business plan and as a result need to be categorized in a different column, please let us know.

Effort marks new milestone in Mount Sinai Health System’s transformation journey to the cloud

NEW YORK, NY – Sept. 27, 2023 — / BackupReview.info / — Accenture (NYSE: ACN) supported the Mount Sinai Health System (Mount Sinai) with the migration of its enterprise electronic medical record (EMR) system, Epic, to the Microsoft Azure cloud environment. This marks the largest production instance of Epic running on Azure, a significant development in the complex healthcare industry.

Working in collaboration with Accenture, Avanade and Microsoft, one of New York City’s largest academic medical systems kicked off its transformation journey to the cloud last year to enable innovation at a faster pace and ultimately improve healthcare access, experiences and outcomes. Accenture is leading the development and implementation of the strategic transformation, which also includes the migration of Mount Sinai’s clinical applications to the cloud. On an ongoing basis, Accenture will provide cloud managed services, including server management and support for migrated workloads; automation and analytics; storage and backup operations; and database support.

Kristin Myers, executive vice president, chief digital and information officer, and dean for digital and information technology at Mount Sinai, said, “We prioritized moving our Epic EMR system to Azure as a key component in creating secure, connected and insight-driven healthcare experiences for our patients. This digital transformation is allowing us to leverage new technologies—like artificial intelligence—to improve our business structure and drive efficiencies to deliver on our mission of providing compassionate care.”

The transition of Mount Sinai’s EMR system to the cloud allows access to patient information from anywhere at any time, which will lead to improved care coordination and collaboration for better patient outcomes. In addition to substantial cost savings achieved from reducing on-premise infrastructure, the implementation is improving Mount Sinai’s systems resiliency and reducing cybersecurity risk through modern architectures, continuous monitoring, and enhanced security measures and protocols.

As part of the transformation, Accenture and Mount Sinai are also building a foundation for artificial intelligence (AI) and other advanced technologies to drive innovation. This will allow Mount Sinai to adapt to changing trends by expanding and scaling new services and capabilities that meet patient and clinician needs. The move is also creating sustainability benefits through the reduction of carbon emissions.

Rich Birhanzel, Accenture’s global healthcare industry lead, said, “Healthcare organizations today are focused on expanding access to affordable care, creating better patient experiences and improving clinical outcomes. Achieving these things requires continuous innovation, data insight and integration as well as new ways of working. With this strategic migration of clinical applications, Mount Sinai is embracing the power of cloud and the innovation it can drive in care delivery.”

Scams and phishing make up 85% of online threats for small businesses in the US in 2023, yet many lack the budget and tools to protect themselves

TEMPE, Ariz. and PRAGUE, Sept. 27, 2023 — / BackupReview.info / — Norton, a leading consumer Cyber Safety brand of Gen™ (NASDAQ: GEN), today announced Norton Small Business, the all-in-one cybersecurity solution to help entrepreneurs and small business owners protect their financial futures. While nearly 90%1 of businesses globally are small businesses – 99.9% in the US2 – many lack the means to protect their digital environments. Norton Small Business makes triple-lock protection accessible for small businesses to safeguard their team’s online activities, devices and customer data in an easy, all-in-one cybersecurity solution.

“Owning a very small business often means each member of the team wears different hats, and usually cybersecurity expert isn’t one of them,” said Massimo Rapparini, General Manager & Head of Small Business Safety at Gen. “Unfortunately, cybercriminals are aware of this and often target such businesses – more than half (57%) of small businesses experienced a security, data breach or both in 20223. For entrepreneurs and small businesses, falling for just one phishing email can have a devastating impact.”

Scams Taking Down Small Businesses
Small businesses face a barrage of scams and phishing threats, just like consumers. In fact, they are targeted more than large companies. Companies with fewer than 100 employees face an average of 350% more social engineering attacks than larger enterprises4, and according to data from Gen, cyber threats that rely on manipulating people account for 85% of attacks on small businesses in the US. Of these threats, phishing – for example, emails trying to trick you into clicking a link or transferring money – is the most common way cybercriminals try to access small business systems, private data, financials and intellectual property.

Businesses with under 10 employees often lack IT support, putting companies at great risk if cybercriminal attacks are successful – and many are. In 2020 alone, there were more than 700,000 attacks against small businesses totaling $2.8 billion in damages5. Norton Small Business helps small businesses disaster-proof their critical data to minimize the risk of financial loss.

Entrepreneurs Pursue Financial Freedom
Entrepreneurs often start their own businesses in pursuit of financial freedom and invest significant time, energy and personal savings to build their business. In fact, 61% of Gen Z small business owners believe entrepreneurship will lead them to retirement earlier than if they had gone straight to the corporate world6. Yet, small businesses are being heavily targeted by cybercriminals, leaving them at much higher risk of collapsing compared to larger firms when hit by a cyberattack.

With heightened risk and so much at stake, it’s surprising that about half of businesses with under 50 employees have no cybersecurity budget at all7. The effects of a cyberattack extend beyond financial consequences, and it’s time cybersecurity is pushed to the forefront of small business priorities.

Setting Up Your One-Person IT Department
Norton is your go-to partner to make small business cybersecurity simple with an all-in-one solution that provides 24/7 cybersecurity protection and a variety of features, including:

• Secure Browser, Password Manager and VPN (virtual private network) to help secure day-to-day online activities
• Automated PC cleaning and optimization to keep healthier PCs for longer
• Secure Cloud Backup for PCs to help reduce the risk of loss of business data
• Software and driver updaters to help keep software up to date, so there are fewer vulnerabilities for cybercriminals to exploit
• IT coverage and maintenance for up to 20 devices
• A 100% Virus Protection Promise⁸

“We’ve built our small business products and services with the same approach in mind as we do with our consumer portfolio, so entrepreneurs don’t need to worry about becoming cybersecurity experts,” said Rapparini. “Norton is here to make cybersecurity accessible and easy so they can focus on building thriving businesses.”

Norton recommends these top 10 tips to protect your small business:

1. Learn to spot signs of phishing and teach your employees
2. Only click links or download attachments from known sources
3. Avoid sharing personal information or private company data over email
4. Always keep your operating system, applications and drivers up-to-date
5. Make sure your WiFi network is protected with a strong password
6. Regularly back up your data
7. Require employees to use a VPN when doing company work on a public WiFi network (think airports and coffee shops)
8. Always use multi-factor-authentication for an extra layer of protection
9. Don’t neglect mobile devices – make sure they are password protected and use security software
10. Invest in a cybersecurity solution such as Norton Small Business

Norton Small Business is available now with prices starting at $59.99 for the first year with options for 6, 10 or 20-device plans. For more information, please visit   norton.com/products/small-business

Fujitsu’s PRIMERGY M7 Platform Now Certified by Qumulo, Provides Companies with More Options to Cost Efficiently Manage Unstructured Data

SEATTLE, WA – September 26, 2023 — / BackupReview.info / — Qumulo, the simple way to manage exabyte-scale data anywhere, today announced it has built its strategic relationship with Fujitsu to provide customers with more options to deploy their joint solution. Qumulo® is now available on the new NVMe-based hybrid nodes on Fujitsu’s PRIMERGY platform that deliver the performance of flash storage at the price of disk. Qumulo’s file system delivers real-time visibility, scale, and control of data across on-premises and cloud, even at a granular level, allowing easy system configuration and performance management.

Tweet this: “Organizations today cannot be tied to one hardware or public cloud solution to properly manage the type of IT infrastructure required for true success. With this announcement, we are giving companies another compelling way to take advantage of the unprecedented scale and performance Qumulo offers”

“With the expansion of our relationship, our customers in a wide range of industries will benefit from low-threshold access to Qumulo data processing as well as the ability to rapidly sift through billions of files to find the nuggets of true value. The integration on the PRIMERGY RX2540 M7 also provides our channel partners with the opportunity to benefit from our relationship with Qumulo and distribute the solution,” said Christian Leutner, Head of European Platform Business, Fujitsu.

Specifically designed for hybrid environments spanning the data center, private and public clouds, Qumulo makes it possible for users to share information, while supporting multiple storage protocols that enable data consolidation. This allows for easier management of data in hybrid environments and provides the ability to absorb unpredictable, unstructured data growth and cope with data demands from increasing numbers of applications, both on and off the cloud.

“Organizations today cannot be tied to one hardware or public cloud solution to properly manage the type of IT infrastructure required for true success. With this announcement, we are giving companies another compelling way to take advantage of the unprecedented scale and performance Qumulo offers,” said Fabrice Gourlay, Vice President of Sales EMEA, Qumulo. “PRIMERGY RX2540 M7 is the ideal server for business-critical workloads such as AI, machine learning, graphics rendering, and in-memory databases.”

Joint Qumulo and Fujitsu customers include Imelda Hospital in Belgium and Portalliance in France. For Imelda Hospital, providing quality care to thousands of patients a year is possible through the staff’s strong teamwork and training plus utilizing the latest techniques and technology. The hospital offers the most modern medical scanning and imaging technology available, and this generates significant amounts of unstructured data. When the hospital’s storage capacity demands for its Agfa Enterprise Imaging system became a network performance and budgetary concern, they turned to Fujitsu and Qumulo. Imelda also needed a backup copy of the data for cloud disaster recovery reasons, plus an option that prepared them for the cloud.

“We made a huge gain in the speed of our system. We have been able to tune our system, really improve it. The doctors are happy too. Usually you won’t hear a word from a doctor who is satisfied. Since the migration we have received nothing but positive feedback for the gain in speed,” said Kim Buts, IT Systems Team Lead at Imelda Hospital.

The Qumulo file data platform rapidly scales to support tens of billions of files, and the cloud-native file system allows for workloads to be seamlessly transitioned to the public cloud. This means customers can extend short-term computing power beyond their on-premises or hosted capabilities to manage spikes in demand, as well as providing remote collaborators with instant access to data. Businesses can also easily run microservices that leverage cloud data, via APIs enabling application-level access.

Qumulo is a Gold Sponsor of Fujitsu’s TechCommunity Workshop Event being held in Dubrovnik on October 10-12. To register, please go to the event site.

Retail Ransomware: 26% of ransomware attacks caused data loss, a quarter of companies paid ransom, but few test or update recovery plans

Draper, UT – September 26, 2023 — / BackupReview.info / — Arcserve, the world’s most experienced provider of backup, recovery, and immutable storage solutions for unified data resilience against ransomware and disasters, today released a segment from its annual independent global research during Cybersecurity Awareness Month that highlights an urgent need for enhanced data resilience in the retail sector. The results reveal a lack of preparedness and confidence in data backup and recovery strategies, raising concerns about the industry’s readiness to protect sensitive customer and business data.

Key survey insights include:

• Ransomware Pressures:  54% of retail executives disclosed they were targeted by ransomware in the past 12 months; 26% of the attacks resulted in compromised data, and a quarter confirmed paying ransom.
• Recovery Confidence: 66% of retail executives surveyed were not very confident in their ability to recover all lost data in the event of a ransomware attack.
• Partial Data Recovery: Nearly half (42%) of retail executives admitted being unable to recover all data during their last significant data loss incident.
• Unprepared for disaster: 57% reported they lack well-documented or updated disaster recovery plans. The vast majority (72%) revealed that they do not have specific data resilience goals within their data and backup strategies.

Aftab Alam, Chief Product Officer at Arcserve, states: “As we head into the Cybersecurity Awareness Month and the holiday shopping season that follows, retailers can’t afford to be caught off guard. Our latest research is more than a cautionary tale; it’s a call to action. Retailers must urgently overhaul their disaster recovery plans to match the ever-evolving cyber threat landscape. Data resilience isn’t a ‘nice-to-have’; it’s a non-negotiable business requirement with clear, measurable objectives. And don’t wait for a crisis to test your recovery protocols; make it a regular practice, akin to a fire drill. By taking these steps, retailers do more than protect their bottom line – they retain the trust of their customers.”

Arcserve recommends three immediate steps for retail organizations to be better prepared:

1. Review and Update Disaster Recovery Plans: Assess the robustness of data recovery strategies and ensure they align with the evolving threat landscape.
2. Invest in Data Resilience: Define specific data resilience goals within data and backup strategies to minimize potential losses.
3. Test Recovery Procedures: The wrong time to test disaster recovery plans is during a crisis. Test them now to ensure seamless and orchestrated recovery when it matters most.

About the research conducted by Dimensional Research: 1,121 IT decision-makers completed the survey. All participants had a budget or technical decision-making responsibility for data management, data protection, and storage solutions at a company with 100 – 2,500 employees and at least 5 TB of data. The survey was fielded in Australia, New Zealand, Brazil, France, Germany, India, Japan, Korea, the United Kingdom, the United States, and Canada (North America).

CloudCasa ensures data protection and adherence to government regulations for TRE-PA’s SUSE Rancher Applications

Paramus, NJ – Sept. 26, 2023 — / BackupReview.info / — CloudCasa by Catalogic, a leader in multi-cloud application resilience and mobility for Kubernetes, today announced its CloudCasa backup-as-a-service platform is now simplifying data protection for the Kubernetes environment of the Tribunal Regional Eleitoral Court in Para, Brazil (TRE-PA) by ensuring offsite data protection, adherence to government regulations, enhanced administration and upgrades, all with a simple pricing model.

The Regional Electoral Courts in Brazil or TREs are directly responsible for overseeing the electoral process in Brazil’s states and municipalities. Kubernetes has revolutionized application development and deployment. However, its advantages often lead to complex and hard to regulated environments with insufficient controls, especially when it comes to safeguarding critical data. For government institutions like the TREs, data loss or tampering could have severe consequences. Additionally, government institutions often grapple with limited resources, making the “as-a-service” approach a necessity.

With CloudCasa available in the SUSE Rancher Marketplace, TRE-PA was able to easily find, install and try CloudCasa on their Rancher clusters. They were able to seamlessly backup data at scale to the cloud from their large PostgreSQL databases on Longhorn storage. With no need for software or hardware installation, and no requirement to manage the cloud object storage used for backup, the institution could focus its IT resources on its core responsibilities.

“CloudCasa has a rich and yet simple to use cloud dashboard, with the possibility to manage multiple clusters and perform backups and restores among them all with a single license,” said Manoel Frederico Beltrão, Judicial Analyst at Tribunal Regional Eleitoral do Pará.

CloudCasa also provides TRE-PA with the ability to perform upgrades without disruption along with a capacity-based pricing model. CloudCasa as a SaaS solution aligned perfectly with the regional electoral court’s growing Kubernetes footprint, eliminating concerns about upgrading and predicting the exact number of nodes and clusters needed in the future, allowing for flexibility and growth.

“While the initial motivation for the TRE-PA to explore CloudCasa was compliance with government regulations, the electoral court soon realized the true potential of the SaaS platform. Beyond data protection, CloudCasa provided a comprehensive solution that simplified Kubernetes administration, streamlined backup and restore processes, and facilitated seamless upgrades,” said Sathya Sankaran, Founder and GM, CloudCasa. “With its user-friendly interface and commitment to meeting the unique needs of government institutions, CloudCasa has ushered in a new era of efficient and secure Kubernetes management.”

By delivering the benefits of open source including Velero support and SaaS management, with no vendor lock-in, CloudCasa addresses management, governance, and compliance requirements for Kubernetes data protection and disaster recovery.

San Francisco, CA – September 19, 2023 — / BackupReview.info / — SoftIron, the worldwide leader in private cloud infrastructure, today announced that it has been authorized by the Common Vulnerability and Exposures (CVE®) Program as a CVE Numbering Authority (CNA).

The CVE (Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures) Program seeks to provide a common framework to identify, define, and catalog publicly disclosed cyber security vulnerabilities. As each vulnerability is detected, reported, and assessed, a CVE record is created, and a CVE ID is assigned. This ensures information technology and cybersecurity professionals can quickly identify and coordinate efforts to prioritize and address vulnerabilities and protect systems against attack, resulting in significant time and cost savings.

“We’ve long been advocates of transparency as a key tenet of good security practice, whether within our own platforms where we allow complete audit of our code by our customers, or in identifying and remediating CVEs wherever we find them,” Kenny Van Alstyne, CTO at SoftIron. “We’re excited to take this next step in our progression as a good steward of the broader software ecosystem.”

The CVE program is an international, community-based program and is operated on a voluntary basis by participating organizations. SoftIron joins authorized commercial entities such as VMWare, Dell, HP and AMD as a CNA.

About the CVE Program
The mission of the Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE®) Program is to identify, define, and catalog publicly disclosed cybersecurity vulnerabilities. There is one CVE Record for each vulnerability in the catalog. The vulnerabilities are discovered then assigned and published by organizations from around the world that have partnered with the CVE Program. Partners publish CVE Records to communicate consistent descriptions of vulnerabilities. Information technology and cybersecurity professionals use CVE Records to ensure they are discussing the same issue, and to coordinate their efforts to prioritize and address the vulnerabilities.

The CVE Program is sponsored by the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA), of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) in close collaboration with international industry, academic, and government stakeholders.

About SoftIron
SoftIron is a Silicon Valley-based provider of true private cloud infrastructure. HyperCloud by SoftIron allows organizations to build a true private cloud on-premises that deploys, manages and consumes like public cloud. HyperCloud provides the elasticity of cloud in a solution that is fast and simple to deploy, driving extreme agility.

SANTA CLARA, Calif. – Sept. 19, 2023 — / BackupReview.info / — Alcion, a modern data management startup, announced today it raised $21M in a Series A funding round, bringing the startup’s total funding to $29M. The round was led by Veeam, a leader in data protection and ransomware recovery, and supports the general availability and global go-to-market expansion of Alcion’s security-first AI-driven Backup-as-a-Service (BaaS) platform for Microsoft 365 and, moving forward, protection of other business-critical SaaS services. Its multi-layered approach to security combats ransomware and malware using threat detection, intelligent backup scheduling, encryption, and delete protection.

“Data protection is more critical than ever. Since exiting stealth in May, we’ve witnessed a 700% increase in organizations using the platform, propelling Alcion to a petabyte of managed logical backups,” said Niraj Tolia, CEO and co-founder of Alcion. “This round of funding positions us to rapidly scale our mission of protecting all the world’s data against both malicious threats and accidents. Alcion customers and the rapidly growing open-source Corso community will benefit from greater functionality, ease of use, and heightened ransomware detection.”

This release includes Alcion’s industry-leading AI-driven ransomware protection models that constantly learn from user behavior and operate on a per-user or resource level to detect targeted attacks. Given research that shows 94% of ransomware attacks target backup repositories and 68% of these attacks result in full or partial compromise including deletion of backups, the company has also placed a special focus on boosting security features that protect backups.

Alcion will additionally focus on building features for its managed service provider (MSP) customers as well as extend data protection features for additional SaaS services apart from Microsoft 365. Other high-impact features include:

• ?Deepened focus on data security: Improvements include heightened ransomware detection, clarity in malware protection, actionable insights, immutable backups as well as malware alerts and notifications in app and via email.
• SOC 2 Type II certification: This certification demonstrates the implementation of rigorous controls and procedures that ensure the security, integrity, and confidentiality of customer data.
• ?Proactive approach to data protection: The platform will proactively help admins ensure that their Microsoft 365 data is properly protected vs. notifying them after exposure. New features include a Compliance Score for quick evaluation of configuration and backup health, in addition to targeted Data Protection Insights and Recommendations based on data activity in the tenant.
• ?Ease of product functionality: Increased integration with Teams, Shared Mailboxes, export of backups to local files, restore options, and notifications.
• ?Flexible self-service: Now listed on the Microsoft Marketplace, Alcion BaaS for Microsoft 365 is an easy, fully flexible self-service purchasing option available to all.
• ?Worldwide availability: The general availability of a new Australian region is now paired with existing US and EU regions, with more expansion to come.

“Ransomware has become an insidious threat for every organization,” said Mike Waas, CEO of Datometry. “As an organization that serves primarily Fortune 500 and Global 2000 customers, strong data protection is imperative for us. Alcion for Microsoft 365 ensures our data is protected and secure at all times. Put simply, Alcion gives us peace of mind.”

“Every organization faces challenges in protecting their data from outages and cyber-attacks,” said Danny Allan, CTO at Veeam. “Helping customers combat endemic issues like ransomware will take an industry wide effort coupled with technical and business investment. Along with providing the world’s leading data protection and ransomware recovery capabilities, Veeam is committed to championing and fostering new cybersecurity innovation and our investment in Alcion is part of that commitment. It’s great they have reached this important product milestone.”

In addition to Veeam, the Series A round saw participation from all prior investors including Lip-Bu Tan, Chairman of Walden International and Intel Board Member, Debanjan Saha, CEO of DataRobot, Abhinav Asthana, CEO and founder of Postman, and Amarjit Gill, serial entrepreneur and investor at Nepenthe Capital.

BURLINGTON, Mass. – September 19, 2023 — / BackupReview.info / — Acronis, the global leader incyber protection, today announced the launch of Acronis Cyber Protect Home Office (formerly Acronis True Image). The innovative software offers a comprehensive suite of features that seamlessly integrate secure backup, AI-based security, and digital identity protection, making it the ultimate must-have solution for individuals, families, home office users, and small businesses.

To further strengthen its best-in-class, flagship offering, Acronis introduced a partnership with Iris^® Powered by Generali (“Iris”) to provide a white-label version of its Identity Protection offering. Identity protection is critical due to the increasing prevalence of AI and cyber threats in today’s digital world – especially as so far in 2023, the FTC has reported 1.4 million cases of identity theft.

Acronis Cyber Protect Home Office now features a white-label version of Iris’ Identity Protection offering to meet the needs of consumers. Identity protection helps safeguard personal and financial information from being exploited by malicious actors for fraudulent activities and monetary gain and provides users with a powerful shield against a wide range of digital risks, from data breaches to identity theft and beyond.

“With the advancements of AI, cybercriminals and their tactics are evolving,” said Gaidar Magdanurov, President at Acronis. “Today, even those with limited tech expertise can impact a large number of individuals through the use of complex phishing and social engineering attacks. Protecting data, applications, and systems requires a complete cyber protection solution – integrated with security and data backup. We are excited to announce our latest update of Acronis Cyber Protect Home Office, bringing better performance and stronger security to protect individuals’ data, devices, and home offices.”

Key features and benefits of Acronis Cyber Protect Home Office include:

?      AI-Based Cybersecurity Enhancement: Innovative AI capabilities proactively identify and neutralize potential threats, while providing an added layer of security against cyberattacks including automated recovery from ransomware attacks. Enable the two-factor authentication (2FA) functionality to maximize your security.

?      Backup and Cloning: Acronis Cyber Protect Home Office offers robust secure backup and cloning features. Users can safeguard their critical data and systems with reliable backup that ensures quick recovery in case of data loss or cyber-attacks.

?      Identity Protection: With almost half (47%) of American adults having their personal information exposed by cybercriminals, bringing Iris’ personal identity protection to Acronis Cyber Protect Home Office will usher in new levels of protection for users.

?      Cyber Insurance: Acronis Cyber Protect Home Office includes a cyber insurance component, an added layer of financial security in the event of a cyber incident. This feature further mitigates potential losses, offering a comprehensive solution for digital threats with certified expertise and covering up to $1 million in personal identity theft reimbursements.

?      Remote Management: Users are empowered with remote management tools to monitor and manage their cybersecurity measures from anywhere in the world. This added convenience and flexibility allow for a swift response to any emerging threats.

?      Mobile App and Backup: While mobile device manufacturers offer some storage options, it’s usually platform-specific, and multi-device families may have a mix of operating systems. Acronis Cyber Protect Home Office features storage capabilities for any operating system and advanced encryption to keep mobile contacts, calendars, photos, files, and data safe. The solution also offers the Acronis mobile app to safeguard mobile device data. The feature seamlessly functions across devices so access data is accessible from anywhere through the app or the web interface.

Paige Schaffer, CEO of Iris, commented on the integration, “We’re honored to partner with Acronis to integrate our leading Iris Identity Protection solution into their enhanced Cyber Protect Home Office product line. Acronis will continue to provide the world-class cyber protection that customers are used to, now backed by powerful protection tools and our dedicated team of round-the-clock identity theft resolution experts.”

The integration between the two companies includes enhanced features for Microsoft 365 and Microsoft Teams

MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif. – Sept. 19, 2023 — / BackupReview.info / — Egnyte, the secure platform for content collaboration and governance, today announced an enhanced relationship with Microsoft that provides customers with additional real-time document collaboration and sharing features through Microsoft 365 and a Microsoft Teams integration that makes it easy for customers to share and upload files directly within Teams while also providing the ability to upload directly into Egnyte.

Today companies must provide employees with great collaboration and productivity tools so that hybrid and remote work models can succeed. Egnyte is helping to increase overall productivity and collaboration by helping their customers work where they are most comfortable with the tools they use. Both the real-time document collaboration feature and Teams integration offer significant value to organizations looking to provide flexibility to their hybrid and modern workforces by giving them a smoother workflow for collaborating and sharing files without leaving the application in which they are working.

“Since Egnyte’s inception, we’ve provided customers ways to work smarter and more efficiently with the tools they are most accustomed to,” said Rajesh Ram, Co-Founder and Chief Growth Officer at Egnyte. “Egnyte’s relationship with Microsoft allows us to bring our customers more flexibility for today’s hybrid work environment while simultaneously saving their real-time work in the Egnyte domain.”

As part of Microsoft’s Cloud Storage Partner Program Plus (CSPP+), Egnyte supports customers with the ability to co-edit documents in real time. An enhancement to the existing Egnyte integration into Microsoft 365, co-editing enables users on the same Egnyte account to collaborate in real-time on Microsoft Word, Excel, or PowerPoint documents, whether they are in Office desktop or web.

Customers now have the ability to default to Egnyte as their file storage location for all of their files uploaded and shared in the Teams app. The integration with Teams provides quick and seamless features to search, browse, upload, and share files, so it’s easy for customers to collaborate where they are most comfortable.

“It is important that our customers can collaborate in ways that are most convenient for them,” said Boris Feldman, Principal Program Manager at Microsoft. “The Cloud Storage Partner Program gives partners, like Egnyte, the ability to build integrations with our solutions. With users now having another option to collaborate on documents, whether they are stored in Microsoft or Egnyte, we are delivering a solution that works for evolving customer needs.”

The Microsoft co-editing capability for Microsoft 365 desktop applications is generally available and being rolled out to all Egnyte customer domains, including newly signed contracts. The Teams integration is now in limited availability, with general availability coming soon.

To learn more about any of the new Microsoft integration capabilities, contact the Egnyte team at egnyte.com.

TPx, a leading nationwide managed services provider (MSP) delivering cybersecurity, managed networks and cloud communications, today launched a standalone Managed Cloud-to-Cloud Backup offering that helps businesses protect their Microsoft 365 data

AUSTIN, TX – Sept. 19, 2023 — / BackupReview.info / — TPx, a leading nationwide managed services provider (MSP) delivering cybersecurity, managed networks and cloud communications, today launched a standalone Managed Cloud-to-Cloud Backup offering that helps businesses protect their Microsoft 365 data. Previously only available as part of TPx’s Managed Microsoft 365 solution, businesses can now take advantage of Cloud-to-Cloud Backup without having the Microsoft 365 service through TPx.

Traditional disaster recovery measures primarily address infrastructure failures, leaving a critical gap in protecting customer data. TPx’s Managed Cloud-to-Cloud Backup bridges this gap, safeguarding customer’s Microsoft 365 environment against loss and ensuring ongoing productivity.

“Without a reliable backup solution, a single restore request can result in hours of downtime, and data recovery itself may not be feasible,” said Jared Martin, TPx Chief Product Officer. “With our new standalone Cloud-to-Cloud Backup capabilities, restoration of data for Exchange, OneDrive, SharePoint, Groups, or Teams, will be fast and easy.”

With the launch of its Cloud-to-Cloud Backup, TPx is offering unlimited storage for Exchange, OneDrive, SharePoint, Groups, and Teams with no additional storage charges or restrictions. With TPx, end customers can continuously back up their growing data volumes without worrying about capacity constraints.

Additional key features of TPx’s Cloud-to-Cloud Backup include:

• Unlimited Retention – Business’ end customer information will remain accessible for as long as they maintain an active contract. Protecting critical data even beyond Microsoft’s retention limits provides peace of mind and compliance assurance.
• One-Click Restore – With Cloud-to-Cloud Backup, restoring documents, mail items, folders, contacts, or entire mailboxes is as simple as a click of a mouse. This streamlined process minimizes downtime and helps maintain uninterrupted workflow, enabling businesses to swiftly recover from data loss incidents.
• Multiple Daily Backups – TPx’s solution takes six snapshots a day, capturing the state of customer data at various intervals. This frequent backup frequency ensures that businesses’ end customer data is protected against both recent and historical incidents, reducing the risk of permanent data loss.
• Seamless Integration and Add-on Availability – Cloud-to-Cloud Backup seamlessly integrates with existing Microsoft 365 services, providing a comprehensive backup solution within a customers’ TPx offering.
