Porsche Holding Salzburg Opts for Keepit

Keepit A/S, cloud company based in Denmark, has been selected by Porsche Holding Salzburg, a large automotive distributor in Europe, to provide its SaaS backup solution designed to guard vs. growing ransomware threats.

Keepit is an independent cloud dedicated to SaaS data protection with a blockchain-verified solution.

“We are pleased that our data centers meet Porsche Holding Salzburg’s stringent storage requirements, and to be the company’s provider for cloud backup and recovery,” said Frederik Schouboe, Keepit CEO. “Keepit is uniquely positioned in the SaaS data protection market, and we are proud to support Porsche Holding Salzburg as it seeks to defend vs. the increasing ransomware threats.“

“More and more companies are being affected by ransomware globally. We were searching for a SaaS solution, and we didn’t want to backup all the data on-premise. By working with Keepit, we now have a solution if a ransomware event ever impacts Porsche Holding,” said Andreas Fackler, system engineer, Porsche Informatik, a subsidiary of Porsche Holding Salzburg. “After researching the SaaS backup solutions available, Keepit’s user-friendly, transparent backup and recovery process was the most appealing option. Keepit’s per user pricing model makes it simple and cost-effective to manage accounts, and its simple, easy-to-use cloud backup delivered what we were looking for.“

Keepit follows the 3-2-1 principle of backup, where 2 copies of data are stored at separate locations, and one copy is backed up in an off-site, private cloud. This principle ensures that each customer’s data can survive any calamity, making it impenetrable to ransomware and accidental deletion.

Porsche Holding Salzburg was founded in 1947 and operates in 22 countries throughout Europe, as well as in Colombia, Chile, China, Malaysia, Singapore and Japan. After migrating from a locally installed, on-premise mail system to the cloud, it sought a scalable, SaaS cloud backup solution that would secure its 30,000 user accounts and safeguard vs. data loss.

“Keepit’s European-based data centers were a key consideration during Porsche Holding’s research and selection process as we sought a cloud backup and recovery solution,” said Michael Bojko, system engineer, Porsche Informatik. “Additionally, we felt perfectly supported during our quick, one-week onboarding process. We have also been very satisfied with the continuing customer service, as we always get an answer when we have questions. The Keepit team is trustworthy and friendly, and working with them has been a pleasure.“

As a software company specializing in cloud backup and recovery for SaaS, Keepit has more than 20 years of experience in building data protection services at scale. Founded in 2007 by data hosting entrepreneurs Frederik Schouboe and Morten Felsvang, its primary mission is to help companies protect and manage their cloud-based data.
