“The application integration components of SBM are great – they allow us to scale the use of R1Soft from SMB to enterprise customers easily,” said William Bell, VP, products, phoenixNAP. “The fact that I can backup Microsoft  Exchange is very useful on the enterprise side, and the fact that I can backup a variety of flavors of Linux is really helpful on the hosting side.“

SBM features industry-standard AES-256 encryption and includes a number of additional features that phoenixNAP depends on in its day-today operations such as site-to-site replication, multi-tenancy and disk safe verification.

They are adding two more locations within the next year. The ability to distribute R1Soft anywhere they want geographically gives the company regional backup capabilities for customers who operate in multiple locations.
