CloudFire provides flexible, pay-per-usage data protection that scales with clients’ needs — powered by Acronis.
Recognizing Italian small and medium enterprises (SMEs) needed easy, effective backup with predictable costs, CloudFire built its business on a centralized, multitenant solution using TIER IV Italian data centers, avoiding complex infrastructure and large upfront investments.
KEY CHALLENGES:
- Italian SMEs needed effective, predictable, usage-based backup.
- Centralized, multitenant management required.
- Traditional solutions didn’t fit the “as a service” model.
KEY REQUIREMENTS:
- Pay-per-usage, multitenant backup.
- Single-agent technology for diverse needs.
- Seamless integration with CloudFire’s service portfolio.
THE SOLUTION
From inception, CloudFire partnered with Acronis to deliver Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud as a fully integrated backup-as-a-service solution via its Cortex platform.
THE IMPACT
- Single-agent for managing servers, workstations, and data.
- Scalable, pay-per-usage backup aligned with CloudFire’s business model.
- Opened new opportunities in data protection, business continuity, and cybersecurity.
- Boosted brand visibility through Acronis-supported events and sponsorships.
- Awarded Service Provider of the Year 2025.

“The Acronis solution allowed us to implement a scalable, flexible backup-as-a-service project with a single agent capable of meeting diverse needs. Often, a simple backup request opens new opportunities for us as a cloud provider — expanding our client relationships into strategic areas such as data protection, business continuity and security."
CloudFire is excited to collaborate on important developments in their partnership with Acronis, bringing more value to the Italian market.
