iland Named 2020 Veeam Impact Cloud and Service Provider Partner, North America

iland Internet Solutions Corporation has been selected as the 2020 Impact Cloud & Service Provider Partner of the Year, North America, by Veeam Software, Inc.

This is the fifth time, and fourth consecutive year, iland has been honored with this title, having also won the award in 2015, 2017, 2018 and 2019.

These sixth annual awards recognize North America Veeam ProPartners and Veeam Cloud & Service Provider (VCSP) partners who have demonstrated success in providing Veeam solutions to their customers, and also who have also provided support, expert knowledge, continued product education and a Veeam strategy incorporated into their business.

iland was recognized with this award for the VCSP partner who best delivers business value by collaborating on joint go-to-market solutions and marketing activities with Veeam, and who is the most dedicated to developing storage software company business.

In 2020, the coronavirus pandemic put a heavy strain on all aspects of life, technology in particular. With the need to securely support remote workers and protect data vs. the threat of cyberattacks and ransomware, the partners offered customers reliable and cost-effective cloud solutions to help keep their businesses running.

iland’s Secure Cloud Backup with Veeam Cloud Connect, Secure Cloud Backup for Office 365 with Veeam and Secure DRaaS with Veeam provide direct integration and compatibility with Veeam’s backup and replication software.

As a result, iland is capable of offering customers high level of service, security and compliance, with flexible and predictable pricing to fit changing business needs, along with a onboarding methodology that streamlines migration to the cloud.

Other iland innovations that leverage the strengths of Veeam’s backup solutions include: 

• Secure Cloud Console, a platform that allows customers, partners, MSPs and enterprise to manage their entire portfolios of Veeam cloud-based backup solutions from a single, unified console. Integrated with Cloud Connect.
• Autopilot Managed Recovery, a managed BC solution integrated with Veeam to help accelerate application recovery in the event of a data loss or significant downtime.
• Test Drive, an automated trial platform designed to reduce the time and effort of validating both companies’ services, enabling customers and partners to experience the actual look, feel, features and capabilities of their services.
• iCatalyst, a complimentary cloud assessment tool. Catalyst combined with Test Drive helps customers and partners model their existing Veeam and iland environments to determine if the cloud is right for their specific use case.
• LabEngine, a hands-on lab program that includes a dedicated Veeam environment for customer and partner testing. The lab environment is integrated into iland’s channel partner technical certification and provides all the technology necessary to demonstrate Veeam’s feature set.

“It’s always an honor to be recognized by one of your partners in this manner, especially one as respected throughout the industry as Veeam. For over a decade now, our two companies have successfully helped our customers find their way in the complex realm of cloud-based backup and DR. 2020 was certainly no different, or less challenging,” said Dante Orsini, iland SVP of business development. “From the global pandemic to ransomware attacks to natural disasters, this past year more than ever evidenced the strength of our joint solutions and the power in our partnership. IT innovation never stops, so we look forward to strengthening our partnership to that end in the years ahead.“

“We are excited to recognize and honor iland as the Veeam Impact Cloud & Service Provider Partner of the Year, North America,” said Matt Kalmenson, VP of Americas cloud, Veeam. “2020 brought many challenges, but the dedication and perseverance of our partners made it one of the most successful for Veeam, and we recognize that. iland’s investment in building and delivering Veeam-powered solutions and services is an invaluable part of Act II for Veeam – our evolution into hybrid cloud and containers. iland is a model partner who has developed a collaborative relationship with us and leverages the Veeam program for mutual business opportunities. We congratulate iland on this award and look forward to more collaborative success and even greater profitability in 2021.“
