SCHAFFHAUSEN, Switzerland. Today ALSO announced the
availability of Acronis Backup as a Service for its partners in all
the twelve European countries where it operates. The service is
available immediately in the ALSO Cloud Marketplace.
Through the Cloud platform, ALSO connects service providers with
resellers and lets them assemble appropriate cloud solutions for
their customers. With only one or two clicks, resellers create
their own marketplace and determine the services for their
customers, set their selling prices, and submit an offer. The
easy-to-use and intuitive standardized interface, combined with
support in the respective national language, enables rapid entry
into the cloud business.
Acronis Backup as a Service (BaaS) lets ALSO resellers solve customers' data protection needs quickly, with a proven and comprehensive cloud backup and recovery service for workstations and servers. Leveraging the power of the Acronis AnyData Engine, Acronis BaaS delivers a highly customized, complete, and reliable service that backs up data from any source and recovers to any destination and system. The use and management of the platform is very simple and transparent for resellers: With just one click they get an overview of their accounts and current usage, they only receive one monthly invoice and can easily adapt the services according to their changing business needs.
