Smarter Backup Solutions for MSPs: Pax8 Partners with Redstor

By Greg Tavarez

Data loss is one thing businesses never want to come across. One word to describe it is catastrophic.

Think about it. Data loss disrupts daily operations, leading to inefficiencies, delays and decreased productivity. The financial impact is potentially substantial, with costs associated with data recovery, system repairs and operational restoration. Moreover, businesses may face legal consequences and reputational damage if they fail to protect sensitive customer or employee data.

Data loss also results in the loss of competitive advantage. Valuable insights and information necessary for decision-making and strategic planning are compromised. Without accurate and up-to-date data, businesses struggle to stay ahead of competitors. Additionally, customer trust and reputation are at stake. Breaches of privacy and compromised data erode trust, potentially leading to identity theft and other malicious activities.

Without proper data protection measures, businesses struggle to recover effectively and resume operations swiftly. Safeguarding data integrity is crucial for a business's long-term success and sustainability.

Pax8, a cloud marketplace for IT professionals to buy, sell and manage technology solutions, sought a way to deliver smarter backup to MSPs to help their customers avoid data loss. To do that, Pax8 welcomed Redstor.

Redstor, a provider of cloud backup solutions, offers an innovative AI-powered system that guarantees MSPs can swiftly recover files across cloud infrastructure, popular SaaS business applications such as Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, Salesforce and Quickbooks, as well as on-premises data. This breakthrough technology eliminates the need for hardware and mitigates cyber risks.

Redstor's software not only enhances data recovery capabilities but also helps MSPs fuel their growth, boost operational efficiency and reduce risk. What sets Redstor apart is its software's unique architecture, purposefully built for the cloud and engineered to rapidly scale. With product-led growth at its core, Redstor provides MSPs with a tool that caters to their evolving needs, making it an indispensable asset in the dynamic landscape of managed services.
