Ontrack Customers Gain Access to MSP Expo 2025 Silver Sponsor and Speaker CrashPlan's Data Backup Services

Data loss isn’t a matter of if — it’s a matter of when. Whether caused by human error, malicious attacks, hardware failures or natural disasters, these events can grind operations to a halt and wreak havoc on most organizations. Every second of downtime translates into lost revenue and opportunity.

Outside of the immediate revenue losses, there are costs tied to restoring systems, reputational damage and potential regulatory penalties. Businesses without a clear pathway to recovery often find themselves scrambling to pick up the pieces.

That is why having a well-defined recovery strategy in place is not just about bouncing back — it’s about surviving and thriving in the face of adversity.

But recovery is more than just a technical challenge; it’s a business imperative. When data is the lifeblood of an organization, resilience becomes the measure of its strength. That means investing in systems, tools and processes for continuity, even when the unexpected strikes. It’s not about eliminating risk entirely...that’s impossible. Instead, it’s about creating a roadmap that minimizes the fallout, protects key assets and gets you back on your feet faster than the competition.

And CrashPlan is the company to do just that.

CrashPlan provides cyber-ready data resilience and governance in a single platform for organizations whose ideas power their revenue. With its backup and recovery capabilities for data stored on servers, on endpoint devices and in SaaS applications, CrashPlan’s solutions are trusted by entrepreneurs, professionals and businesses of all sizes worldwide.

There is an opportunity to learn more from CrashPlan at MSP Expo 2025, taking place February 11-13 in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. CrashPlan is a Silver sponsor; and Eric Hall, Senior Customer Experience Manager, CrashPlan, will be part of a panel session, “Building a Scalable MSP Business: Creating a System for Growth,” set for 11:00-11:45 AM Wednesday, February 12.
