Unitrends Introduces ION Appliances That Provide Powerful Data Protection and Fit in Your Pocket
Thursday, February 10, 2022
The cutting-edge backup appliances and new Cyber Assurance Program ensures MSPs and SMBs can combat ransomware, data loss and downtime
BURLINGTON, Mass., Feb. 2, 2022 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Unitrends, a Kaseya® company and the global leader of all-in-one enterprise backup and continuity solutions, announced today the launch of the ION Series of desktop backup appliances and an industry-leading Cyber Assurance Program. These new appliances provide the best-in-breed data protection MSPs and SMBs require--including features like automated disaster recovery (DR) testing, immutable storage, AI-based ransomware detection and more--in a form factor and noise level that fits any small client site or small office. With the ION and ION+, there's no longer a need for a server rack.
"IT professionals face huge challenges when it comes to data protection. These challenges include ever-evolving cyberthreats and a growing number of IT requirements that are outpacing IT staff growth," said Joe Noonan, General Manager of Unitrends. "Unitrends is setting a new standard, with enterprise-level protection that fits any budget."
The new appliance line includes all the features Unitrends customers have come to expect:
-- The ION is designed with premium NVMe® solid state drives with no
moving parts, making it completely silent and perfect for small offices
without a server rack. Built-in software tests recoverability right on
the box, so customers can ensure their data will be available whenever
they need it.
-- The ION+ delivers full-service backup and recovery in a small tower form
factor. With supercharged processors and extra memory, the ION+ delivers
instant failover for recovery and instant labs for sandbox
testing--removing the need for an external host for DR testing, patch
testing and more.
-- Both the ION and ION+ can be used with Unitrends Forever Cloud for
offsite immutable storage and Unitrends Disaster Recovery as a Service
(DRaaS) for hands-free failover to eliminate downtime.
In addition to the newest appliances, Unitrends launched its Cyber Assurance Program. It educates and advises customers on how to stay up-to-date on the threat landscape and offers AI-based automation to ensure ransomware resilience.
Some benefits of the program include:
-- Unitrends administrator certification
-- Professional cybersecurity certification
-- Ongoing quarterly Cyber Awareness training
-- Expert onboarding
-- Ongoing quarterly technical account reviews
-- Regional in-person training events
-- Monthly online training webinars
-- Best practices library
