Increase capacity, reduce costs

Keep pace with the exponential growth of your enterprise data while lowering deployment and management costs. With a low-cost, massively-scalable, tiered backup storage solution in the cloud, you will reduce forecasting risks while transforming capital expenditure commitments to a pay-as-you-go cloud model.

“Our IT staff no longer has to handle tapes daily, coordinate with the external storage company, and pay for tape equipment maintenance, all of which equates to a savings of €30,000 to €40,000 [US$33,000 to US$45,000] annually.”

Daniel Platz, IT Manager
