BOSTON, Jan. 6, 2021 /PRNewswire/
-- BackupAssist®, the leading provider of automated
backup and recovery software for small and medium enterprises
(SMEs), today announced Wasabi, the hot cloud storage company,
now integrates seamlessly with BackupAssist Classic
and BackupAssist ER. This partnership provides customers with
an up to 80% less expensive solution that is faster than the
competition for achieving enterprise-grade cyber-resilience.
As cybersecurity risks continue to become more prevalent and
sophisticated, the need for secure, scalable and reliable file and
system backup has become increasingly important. Unfortunately,
this issue has been compounded by a spike in data, with many
organizations choosing to migrate to the cloud to offset on-premise
storage. When combined with Wasabi's cloud, BackupAssist's software
provides a flexible and cost-effective storage solution that offers
backups for both full system and granular recoveries anywhere,
anytime. Additionally, BackupAssist's CryptoSafeGuard combined with
Wasabi's 11 nines of object durability and data immutability
enables backup files to remain secure.
"Clients have been asking for our recommended alternatives to
the large first-generation public cloud providers, commonly
inquiring about Wasabi specifically," said Linus Chang, Founder and CEO, BackupAssist.
"In response, we began our standard stringent review process, with
Wasabi quickly emerging as a top viable solution. In August 2020, we added Wasabi support for our
BackupAssist ER, and with this announcement we add support for our
BackupAssist Classic solution as well." He continued, "Now, by
adhering to BackupAssist's best practices guidance to perform
multiple backups for maximum resilience, our clients can employ
both local and cloud-based backups to ensure maximum protection
from virtually all cyber risks, as well as rapid recovery -- all at
a dramatically lower cost."
Wasabi's storage is 1/5th the cost of Amazon S3 with no fees for
egress or API requests while remaining markedly faster than
competitors. For those currently using a private cloud, the
availability of a public cloud through Wasabi extends data
resources for greater overall capacity without the hefty price
tag.
"Our mission is to disrupt the traditional cloud market and work
with companies like BackupAssist to provide an affordable, scalable
and high-performing storage option to their clients," said
David Friend, CEO of Wasabi. "One
benefit we're particularly proud of is being able to provide
immutable storage, creating an even more secure cloud storage
option which perfectly complements BackupAssist's ability to
provide enterprise-grade cyber-resilience for the clients' file
backup needs."
Wasabi hot cloud storage will be presented by BackupAssist in
exclusive webinars taking place on January
19 (Europe, Middle East, Africa) and January
27 (North America). To
