"The most compelling aspect of Zenith backup and disaster recovery is how it delivers a solution that all businesses need as a managed service," said Akash Saraf, CEO, Zenith Infotech. "Leading with backup and recovery is an excellent way for resellers to introduce managed services to end users. In many cases it opens those accounts to more advanced remote network monitoring, which equates to more services revenue for resellers."

"Zenith's managed backup and disaster recovery solutions are not only a great way to introduce managed services to our SMB accounts, but they are a lucrative annuity stream and source of recurring revenue on their own," said Third Eye Technologies President Steve Alexander. "We're currently supporting several accounts with these solutions, providing our customers with peace of mind knowing that their critical data is protected."

The data backup and disaster recovery solution is a network-attached storage (NAS) device configured with Zenith's proprietary managed services applications. It helps ensure business continuity through virtual server restoration, and on-site and off-site duplication of critical data. Resellers deploy the device at their customer's location. It is then managed remotely by Zenith from its East Coast network operations center on behalf of the reseller.

In addition to providing continuous data backup, the device enables the reseller to be alerted instantly in the event of a server failure. As they head to a customer location to address the situation, resellers can have Zenith remotely create a virtual server replicating the faulty hardware, minimizing any business disruption by ensuring access to critical applications such as e-mail.

Resellers can select from several device models depending on their customers' needs. For example, the base model has 400 gigabytes of storage and can be used to back up a single server, while the Xtreme model has 2 terabytes of storage capacity and can be deployed to back up as many as 10 servers. Resellers have the option of purchasing each device upfront or on a subscription basis, charges for which they pass on to their customers as recurring monthly services revenue.
