The Secret Shortcut to a Disaster Recovery as a Service Offering
Implementing a disaster recovery (DR) program used to be hard – from getting space in a co-location data center, to redeploying depreciated hardware, to dealing with dedicated black-box hardware. Through the magic of the cloud and sophisticated software that integrates backup and orchestrates failovers to cloud-based recovery machines for production, a DR offering has now become the simplest way to increase revenues and deepen client relationships. Enabling a fully-functional managed disaster recovery as a service program, leveraging existing client backup data, can be as easy as the flip of a switch.

For Remote Work, DCIG Whitepaper Shows Protection is Critical
When we made the decision a few weeks ago to delay the general availability of Acronis Cyber Platform, it was because we wanted to incorporate new cyber protection features for remote workers and workloads. After all, an unprecedented number of people were suddenly being forced to work from home, and their data, applications, and systems needed protection. That same day, we got an email from our colleagues at the market research firm DCIG to let us know they just published a blog article about how one of their analysts successfully used Acronis True Image for cyber protection and resilience at his home office following a hardware failure. The timing couldn’t have been more synchronistic.

How MSPs Can Leverage the Power of Platform Integration to Grow, Thrive, and Profit
The typical managed service provider (MSP) faces a daunting array of obstacles to building a successful, sustainable and profitable business.
