\u201cI couldn\u2019t resist laughing when a client told me that he already has a backup \u2014 a copy of his hard drive to another. It was high time we introduced cloud backup to small businesses and made money on it.\u201d -- Jean-S\u00e9bastien St-Amour, IT Director of Sauvegardez-Vous Solutions Technologiques<\/p>\n
As a small IT company based in a French-speaking part of Canada, Sauvegardez-Vous Solutions Technologiques has decided to add a cloud backup service to their portfolio just recently. \u201cWhen I heard that our customers only do local backups, I was shocked. I couldn\u2019t resist laughing when a client told me that he already has a backup \u2014 a copy of his hard drive to another\u201d, Jean-S\u00e9bastien St-Amour, IT Director of Sauvegardez-Vous Solutions Technologiques told MSP360.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt was clear for us that to have a perfect backup, you need to keep the data outside of the primary site, not on the same computer and not on a tape left in a fire safe. Fire can ruin everything\u201d.<\/p><\/blockquote><\/div>\n
Sauvegardez-Vous Solutions Technologiques decided that they can not leave it that way. \u201cIt was high time we introduced cloud backup to small businesses and made money on it\u201d, Jean-S\u00e9bastien St-Amour said. The company has started its search for a suitable cloud backup solution.<\/p>\n
The biggest challenge that Sauvegardez-Vous Solutions Technologiques faced was to find a reliable product that could be rebranded and support the French language. \u201cWe can only sell software in French, it\u2019s a law in Qu\u00e9bec,\u201d IT Director of the company commented. \u201cAnd we only accept perfectly working software, because our main focus is on the quality of service. We had a difficult task.\u201d<\/p>\n
Another important criterion that Sauvegardez-Vous Solutions Technologiques had was an affordable price of a solution. The company serves to really small businesses like a car garage or a drug store. \u201cThey couldn\u2019t believe that it can be inexpensive to keep data in the cloud. We wanted to prove it to them,\u201d St-Amour added. The company considered Vembu StoreGrid and Ahsay. None of them appeared to be a suitable solution. \u201cVembu was bugging, and Ahsay simply didn\u2019t meet the needs of the company.\u201d<\/p>\n
Solution<\/h2>\n
With MSP360 Managed Backup, Sauvegardez-Vous solutions technologiques finally managed to achieve the goals they set.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe first thing that we noticed was a high quality of coding. No bugging software at each step like it was with StoreGrid of Vembu\u201d.<\/p><\/blockquote><\/div>\n
The company was also able to easily change the language of the product to French and rebrand the solution.<\/p>\n
Jean-S\u00e9bastien St-Amour also highlighted the following features that his company mostly benefits from:<\/p>\n
\n
- Affordable price for an enterprise-grade solution.<\/strong> \u201cThe reliable backup solution by MSP360 met the price expectations of our clients while still offering an enterprise-grade backup service. That is a fantastic deal.\u201d<\/li>\n
- Cloud storage provider of a client\u2019s choice.<\/strong> \u201cMSP360 gives you an option to use a cloud provider of your choice. I back up data directly to Amazon S3, one of the most reliable cloud storage. I trust them and I like their pricing.\u201d<\/li>\n
- Monitoring and notifications.<\/strong> \u201cI can\u2019t live without them. I check backups on the web control panel every day. This is my major advantage,\u201d St-Amour commented.<\/li>\n
- Excellent work by the support team.<\/strong> \u201cIn the beginning, I asked a lot of questions to understand the product and their support team was helpful. They also always take my suggestions to enhance the solution and I already see some of them implemented.\u201d<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Conclusion<\/h2>\n
A Qu\u00e9bec based IT service company was looking for a reliable and affordable cloud backup solution that will introduce cloud to small businesses. After considering several products by Vembu and Ahsay, Jean-S\u00e9bastien St-Amour, IT Director of Sauvegardez-Vous Solutions Technologiques opted for MSP360 Managed Backup.
