As a launch partner, Phoenix NAP is offering the new service – known as Phoenix NAP Cloud Backup for Veeam – prior to its general market release. This allows the global IT services provider to leverage Veeam Cloud Connect to offer its customers an integrated, secure, and efficient way to move Veeam backups to an offsite repository managed by Phoenix NAP.

Phoenix NAP Cloud Backup for Veeam is available out of Phoenix NAP’s three global locations – Phoenix, AZ, Ashburn, VA, Amsterdam, NL – enabling customers to backup their data in the region best suited to their needs. Coupled with self-service online ordering options and quick deployment times, the solution can be provisioned in four hours or less.

“Veeam has a reputation for innovation, and Veeam Cloud Connect is a good example of how that reputation is applied to meet market demands,” said William Bell, VP of product development, Phoenix NAP. “In today’s climate, it’s imperative for businesses to have a backup strategy and service in place. Through this new solution and our partnership with Veeam, our customers can safely and securely backup their mission critical data to our off-site cloud environments, and do so quickly. We are proud to be included as one of Veeam’s launch partners, and look forward to offering this new service to our customers.“
