Backup Solutions We Deliver

  • Comprehensive backup coverage for virtual machines (VMware vSphere and Microsoft Hyper-V), physical servers, cloud workloads (AWS, Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud), NAS file shares, and Microsoft 365 (Exchange Online, SharePoint, OneDrive, and Teams)
  • Ransomware-resilient backup storage built on the 3-2-1-1-0 rule, with immutable, air-gapped, and offsite copies to protect your data against deletion, encryption, and corruption 
  • Flexible retention and scheduling policies configured around your recovery point objectives (RPOs), compliance obligations, and operational needs 
  • Scheduled backup recoverability testing, using Veeam Sure Backup, so every restore is verified before you ever need it
