Why Switch

to Asigra.

(2)

6 Reasons to Switch to Asigra.

Want to improve margins?

Need to provide more reliable managed backup

services to customers?

There are many reasons why a Managed Service Provider delivering managed cloud backup

services might consider changing technology platforms.

Making the switch is a big deal, but Asigra makes the

decision easy.

Your success in delivering managed backup services depends on which platform you choose.

Making the right choice can lead to:

More profits

Higher customer satisfaction and retention

Fewer technology limitations

A better relationship with your platform partner

(3)

Make More Money.

Asigra can help you make more money in two ways:

by improving your margins, and by expanding your customer base.

Keep more profit

Working with Asigra will help:

Lower operating costs

– Asigra’s agentless

architecture means you do less at your customer

site, so you reduce the costs of installation, security,

troubleshooting, upgrading and diagnosis

Lower the hidden costs of data

– With Asigra, the

volume of data you capture, ingest and store is less than

with other solutions, so you lower the amount of backup

infrastructure you have to buy, manage and maintain

Make operating costs predictable

– Asigra’s

reliable solution eliminates unhappy surprises like failed

backups, unsuccessful recoveries and other glitches that

cost time and money

Reach new customers

An Asigra-powered Cloud Backup and

Recovery solution also satisfies a wider

range of end-customer requirements than

any other vendor. With Asigra, you can reach

customers that need:

Support for heterogeneous environments

Asigra’s solution can back up all leading physical and

virtual operating systems, applications and databases

Tiered pricing

– Our Backup Lifecycle Management

(BLM) module lets you set distinct pricing levels for

different kinds of data, so you can align your offering

with the value of your customer’s data

Support for hybrid cloud backup

– With Asigra,

you can sell cloud backup to meet your customer’s

requirements; as a service or software license, as a

private cloud (at customer site only) and public cloud

(offsite data protection delivered by you), or a hybrid

cloud (e.g. private cloud with replication to public cloud)

Eliminate any Channel Conflict.

Asigra does not deliver its own backup service. We don’t run, host, or operate

vaults. Not our own, not anyone else’s. Unlike other backup and recovery vendors,

Asigra has always delivered its solutions 100% to and through channel partners

like yourself. In other words, our partners are our customers, and our interests are

aligned with yours. We believe in long-term relationships based on shared ideals

for sustainable growth and technology leadership.

Bottom line: we don’t sell direct and compete against our partners.

Are you competing with your current vendor?

Our solution

scales for IT

environments

of any size or

complexity, as

you grow your

customer base.

Improve Customer Retention.

When a backup fails, or recovery times and

rates fall short of contractual requirements,

it’s your business that suffers the penalties of

breaking Service Level Agreements (SLA)–not

your current solution provider.

Why risk losing the trust of your customers?

Our solution scales for IT environments of

any size or complexity, so as your customer

base grows, you can continue to meet or

exceed your obligations.

Our federated ecosystem of service providers

gives customers the assurance of pain-free data

migration.

Plus, Asigra provides global 24x7

technical support, which increases

response times and ensures you

keep providing great service to your
