UK TIG Cloud Backup and DR Service

Asigra, Inc. a cloud backup, recovery and restore software provider, has partnered with TIG Ltd, provider of cloud, connectivity and transformational managed services in the UK, to launch a joint solution to deliver cloud-based backup and recovery for customers in the Azure Marketplace.

The solution is available, fulfilling a gap in the market place for an agentless backup service. The backup is encrypted and secure against viruses and malware, with the customer holding the decryption key. The solution can be launched from the Azure Marketplace and is hosted in Northern Europe and the UK with expansion plans on the horizon.

“We are seeing a growing demand from our customers for an easy-to-use, easy-to-operate, comprehensive cloud-based backup and recovery solution. Our solution, powered by the award-winning Asigra software, enables us to offer Azure customers a comprehensive, scalable data protection solution for VMs, Office 365, enterprise databases and applications as well as other data sources in Azure. Under the bring-your-own-license model, Azure users can easily subscribe to, and launch the service in Azure,” said George Geor, sales director, TIG. “With our proven track record of providing reliable data protection, coupled with the Asigra software, TIG Backup Services is a flexible solution that allows organizations of all sizes to recover critical systems quickly to a cloud, without the need for dedicated hardware.“

“As the first agentless cloud backup and recovery service in the Azure Marketplace, customers now have access to the most complete, scalable data protection solution for greater peace of mind of their vital data. With organizations falling victim to malware and ransomware attacks more frequently, organizations need to ensure they have data loss prevention plans in place for all data including Office 365, Exchange Online, SharePoint Online and OneDrive for Business,” said Eran Farajun, EVP, Asigra. “With the TIG Backup Service powered by Asigra in the Azure Marketplace, organizations can quickly deploy data protection for all data across their entire computing environment, and know they are in good hands with TIG’s team of data protection specialists.“

“We are delighted to be collaborating with TIG and Asigra to provide our customers with cloud-based backup and recovery services through the Azure Marketplace,” said Ewan Dalton, global business strategist, Microsoft.

A UK insurance firm is one of the first customers to deploy the TIG Backup Services powered by Asigra for Azure to protect all their data – from files, servers, databases, email and more. The insurance firm selected the TIG backup because it meets their business needs, in particular regulatory requirements to securely encrypt and safely backup business data to mitigate potential disasters, providing peace of mind.

The solution is available to launch from the Azure Marketplace in Northern Europe and the UK. It will soon be available for more deployment.
