HostMySite Adding Backup-as-a-Service

HostMySite (Hosting.com, Inc.), a provider of web, VPS and cloud hosting services, has announced it will offer Backup-as-a-Service (BaaS) powered by Dropmysite Pte Ltd, a cloud backup-as-a-service provider.

This service enables HostMySite customers to better safeguard their websites and databases from data loss.

In this collaboration, HostMySite and Dropmysite integrated each company’s individual control panels to ensure ease of use, automatic detection and configuration of website backups, allowing customers to set up backups and schedules within minutes. The end product also includes website monitoring, website performance reports and safe browsing services from Google.

“According to the National Archive & Record Administration, 50% of businesses that have lost data for ten or more days immediately file for bankruptcy,” said Joshua Tobiansky, GM, HostMySite. “Providing the tools and services to ensure our customers’ data is secure and routinely backed up is one of HostMySite’s highest priorities and Dropmysite makes this possible. The icing on the cake for our customers is the slick integration between control panels.“

“We are very excited to partner with HostMySite. Dropmysite’s objective of making it easy and simple for small businesses and website owners to protect their data matches HostMySite’s focus on ease of use for their customers.” said Ridley Ruth, COO, Dropmysite. “The seamless integration between our technologies and automation of set up will allow HostMySite’s customers to quickly and easily keep their online business up and running.“

HostMySite has also developed and designed specialized plans for its reseller and channel partners hosting multiple websites. These plans include automatic detection of all websites, as well as easy and centralized management.
