“According to Forrester, in 2021 an additional 20% of firms will shift their disaster recovery operations to the cloud for some portion of business applications,” said Ben Nowacky, SVP of Product at Axcient. “With x360Recover Direct-to-Cloud, MSPs can offer best-in-class business continuity and disaster recovery (BCDR) without the expense and management complexity of local appliances. The addition of Local Cache offers an acceleration layer for file and bare metal restores (BMR), allowing MSPs to protect and restore data from anywhere, on any device.”
