today announced the launch of Cove Data Protection™, the
cloud-first data protection-as-a-service (DPaaS) solution that
modernizes data protection for business-class backup and disaster
recovery. This approach has never been more important as we witness
an increase in cyberattacks1,including ransomware, for both managed
services providers and internal IT organizations.
Today’s modern IT environment calls for a solution like Cove
that was built from the ground up with a cloud-first architecture
compared to traditional local-first image-based backup products
that have bolted on secondary cloud capabilities as an
afterthought, adding extra complexity. While cloud-first
architecture has long been appreciated for reducing the cost and
complexity of backup, practitioners have sometimes felt the need to
maintain a second solution for disaster recovery. Cove bridges that
gap—combining cloud-first data protection with business-class
disaster recovery and long-term backup retention. It sits in a
fundamentally different class among well-known legacy backup
solutions, without the traditional high costs and built-in
inefficiencies.
According to Joshua Wragg, president and owner of NexusTech,
LLC, “Nobody cares about a backup solution when it is not needed,
but as soon as there’s a problem, it is instantly the most
important product. The reliability and thoroughness of Cove gives
us everything we need to protect against every disaster imaginable
for our servers and workstations. We not only have experienced its
robustness in action, but I can also finally sleep at night.”
Cove delivers:
- An appliance-free, direct-to-cloud approach that removes the
expensive and unnecessary “infrastructure that acts as a
middleman,” helping partners scale as they grow and eliminating the
need to “babysit backups”
- Data protection for servers, workstations, and Microsoft 365
data, all managed from a single pane of glass
- The ability to back up as often as every fifteen minutes,
moving up to 60 times less data compared to local-first backup, for
significantly improved recovery point and recovery time
objectives
- A standby virtual server image in the partner’s location of
choice for fast and flexible restore options (now in preview/early
access)
- Fully managed cloud storage, with 30 data centers to keep
backups stored in region, to respect data sovereignty
“Today’s IT professionals have adopted a cloud-first IT
strategy,” stated Chris Groot, general manager, Cove Data
Protection at N-able. “For example, years ago, everyone had an
on-premises Microsoft Exchange server. Today, it’s rare to find a
company that isn’t using Microsoft 365. With Cove, we bring that
same concept to data protection.
“Legacy image and appliance-based backup software solutions can
create a huge administrative burden for IT professionals as they
look to rationalize the cloud with their backup and disaster
recovery needs,” Groot continued. “The unique approach of the Cove
offering, true cloud-first data protection as-a-service, delivers a
premium service at a lower cost of ownership for our partners,
along with full business-class disaster recovery.”
A recent report from top industry analyst firm, William Blair,
further highlights the evolution of data management from
traditional backup to a cloud-based “as-a-service” model to
completely untangle the reliance on clunky and inefficient hardware
and “eliminate the high complexity of installations,
configurations, and management required to operate legacy data
protection.”2
