Zetta.net Introduces Hybrid Cloud Backup Starting at $225/Month for 500GB

Zetta
Inc.
is redefining hybrid cloud backup with its appliance-free approach
featuring Smart Cloud and Lean Local Copy technology.

Zetta.net’s Smart
Cloud integrates the functionality of backup, snapshot and
replication technology, abolishing the need for a local appliance.
This service, together with the new Lean Local Copy feature, advances
the hybrid cloud model to deliver backup and recovery at a
fraction of the cost of backup alone.

The company delivers
3-in-1 backup, DR and archiving.

Because the SaaS-based solution
eliminates the cost and management complexities associated with
appliance hardware, it is attractive to SMBs enterprises with
distributed office locations, and MSPs. Remote
offices and MSPs are no longer required to purchase and manage
multiple appliances across distributed locations, and any size
business can now enjoy data protection at an affordable price.

Unlike the ‘dumb
cloud’
of first generation hybrid cloud backup, this solution was
architected with integrated backup, snapshot and
replication technology built into its Smart Cloud and its agents.
This removes the need for appliances, and reduces local storage
footprint. As a result, offsite backup and recovery is faster, more
efficient and simpler to deploy and manage.

With the
introduction of Lean Local Copy, the company builds on its strategy on hybrid cloud backup model. It enables companies to
store the most recent copy of large files within their local storage
environment so that data is when needed. Because the intelligence of
backup, snapshot and replication resides in Smart Cloud, customers
can restore and recover their data from either the cloud or their
local network copy with equal ease, and without third party hardware
or software. Companies benefit from a range of functionality that
would only be achieved otherwise by investing in disparate products
for local, offsite, archiving and DR.

A second feature,
flexible API Scripting, extends the plug-in architecture to
accommodate functionality or applications as required by companies.
The scripting feature enables enterprises or MSPs to deliver value to
customers in specialized environments, such as healthcare or the
legal industry, with the ability to customize the solution to meet
market-specific requirements.

"Data
protection is traditionally comprised of disparate products from
different vendors, which can easily add up in capital and operational
costs,"
said Deni Connor, founding analyst for Storage Strategies NOW.
"Through
its unique backup, snapshot and replication architecture, Zetta.net
has found an elegant way to deliver all-in-one data protection to
companies without requiring them to pay the exorbitant prices
associated with enterprise data recovery. Zetta.net is clearly
addressing the market’s need for more comprehensive, yet affordable
data recovery."

"When
we discovered Zetta.DataProtect it was the highest value offering by
a wide margin. Not only was the solution affordable, but it included
multiple enterprise-class capabilities that competitors could not
touch. Comparable vendors wanted outrageous service fees for service
levels that were far below Zetta.net,"
said Andy Abadia, network administrator, TEECOM. "We
replaced our disk-based backup system with Zetta.net, moving as much
as 3TB of storage to DataProtect. As a designer of technology
infrastructure for the most advanced buildings in the world,
timeliness is critical. Zetta.net has provided the speed and
rock-solid reliability we need to ensure our information is online
when we need it. It’s been the ideal solution for us."

"With
our advanced Smart Cloud and new Lean Local Copy, Zetta.net is
raising the bar of excellence for legacy hybrid cloud backup,"
said Gary Sevounts, VP of marketing, Zetta.net. "There
is no reason companies should be chained by the constraints of
appliance hardware and software, when they can eliminate the absurd
cost and management hassles with the current hybrid cloud backup
model. Our visionary approach enables instant recovery when required,
removes the limitations of third-party appliances and single points
of failure, and reduces the huge costs associated with today’s hybrid
‘dumb’ cloud."

DataProtect
with Lean Local Copy and flexible API Scripting is available,
starting
at $225 per month.
The pricing includes unlimited licenses, 24×7 U.S.-based support, and
500GB of secure online storage.
