Canadian System Integrator Cycom Opts for KineticCloud

KineticD, in cloud backup and data recovery services for SMBs, announced wide spread usage of its agentless backup capabilities by its channel partners.

As a core feature of KineticCloud Backup for Servers, the agentless capability manages hybrid cloud backup processes from a single backup console across multiple systems and platforms like Windows, Mac or Linux, simplifying the deployment and maintenance of cloud backup solutions.

Among the key benefits that IT administrators and channel partners realize is the power to manage backup processes across environments from one single console, thus alleviating the need to install software clients on every system throughout the business network. Additionally, it provides unlimited local backup, independent of cloud backup sets, enabling a variety of backup and retention policies per data type.

Al Leela, president at Cycom Canada Corporation, a systems integrator working in the health care market, discovered how valuable this feature is to his customers and his business. After installing the software to a client’s host machine, he quickly realized that by using the agentless backup technology he was able to manage his customer’s backup needs through a single interface.

"We appreciate this added feature and immediately discovered an important value-add for our business," said Leela. "Through this agentless backup technology, we are able to manage our clients’ data from one single console saving us time and valuable resources."

The agentless technology is one of the benefits of the KineticCloud Backup for Servers product. The feature saves time and resources, and also reduces costly device fees. KineticD provides this additional feature for $6.95 per month for the server, with no device fees and unlimited local vault capacity.

"System integrators, such as Cycom, appreciate the benefits of a single management console that allows them to deploy a backup solution simply and easily," said Jamie Brenzel, CEO of KineticD. "The agentless backup capability of KineticCloud Backup for Servers has become a valuable feature in our mid-market success while providing our end-users and channel partners with the ability to manage and secure their data from a single management console."
