MSP360 Managed Backup

MSP360 Managed Backup manages ensuring comprehensive data protection across diverse IT environments, including cloud, virtual, and physical workloads. This solution offers centralized management, monitoring, and reporting, which are essential for maintaining visibility and control over backup operations.

The technical architecture of MSP360 Managed Backup is built around native integrations with major public cloud services such as AWS, Wasabi, Backblaze B2, and Microsoft Azure. This allows for flexible storage options, enabling users to bring their own storage or leverage the integrated storage solutions. The platform supports a wide range of operating systems, including Windows, Linux, macOS, as well as virtual environments like VMware and Hyper-V, and cloud services like Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace.

Operationally, MSP360 Managed Backup is administered through a cloud-based web console, providing a one-stop-shop for managing backups. It includes features like file and image-based backups, synthetic full backups, and granular recovery options. The solution also incorporates advanced security measures, such as encryption and object lock support for immutability, ensuring data integrity and protection against ransomware attacks. Additionally, the integration with Deep Instinct offers a prevention-first approach to endpoint security, enhancing the overall security posture.

Key operational considerations include the licensing model, which is per-device with options for monthly or annual payments, and the availability of a 15-day free trial for backup licenses. The solution also offers free web-based remote access, which is particularly useful for instant issue resolution without additional licensing costs. However, users should be aware of the potential for increased costs associated with retention periods, especially in multi-account setups, and the impact of large-scale backups on network bandwidth and storage costs.
