Better yet - our offices are within our Datacentre.

Why is MetroStor DR with Veeam Cloud Connect Different:
The 5 R's of Cloud DR
It's about Recovery
- It's about defined RPOs and RTOs, that are practical, measured and tailored to your business.
It's about RPO's
- Its about multiple copies of your data, geo separated, with multiple retention points across time, allowing you to roll back and recover under almost any scenario.
It's about RTO's
- a 5 minute RTO for 100 servers might cost 5-10 times more than having an RTO of 2-4 hours.
It's about Reinforcement
You haven't tested your DR in months or years and when you push that button it doesn't work.
- VMTools is not up to date / The VMware to Azure convertor has a bug / The Network/VPN settings have changed and no one can access the Cloud DR site.
- Our customers have the option to fall back a tier for their Recovery - meaning; worst case; we can revert to 'Ship to Site'.
- Reinforcements - or Multiple options means we have DR for 'Your DR'.
Finally - Its about Re-assurance
- It's knowing your systems are ready to run.
- We'll conduct a recovery ready assessment of your servers daily.
- We have a 1:1 relationship with all our customers - we know your environment and are on hand to offer guidance in the use of our DR Services.
