virtualDCS is delighted to announce that the company has been shortlisted for ‘Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery Innovation of the Year’ at the SDC awards, for the second year running!
Last year the team celebrated in style, winning the category of ‘Business Continuity / Disaster Recovery (BC/DR) Project of the Year’, in conjunction with The Agriculture and Horticulture Development Board (AHDB).
This year, the nomination celebrates CloudCover’s unique, holistic approach to data protection. Uniting all services, and backed by Veeam software, virtualDCS has developed the CloudCover Service portal – a single pane of glass solution, fronting its innovative services portfolio, enabling customers and partners to have full protection, management, and visibility of all aspects of their data environments.
“Currently, we see the major weakness across all industries is a lack of visibility since Data Protection is often deployed in silos managed through different tools with different interfaces.
As a business, we believe that being prepared for a crisis relies on having a holistic view of your data landscape and how it is being protected. If you look at the problem as a whole, then a single treatment for data protection and recovery should be an intuitive approach to risk mitigation and incident resolution.
Our holistic approach and new single pane of glass view mean both the customer and service provider can easily see their protected services in one place and monitor their backups for any issues. The CloudCover Service portal also clearly demonstrates which services customers are not utilising, and which they may benefit from as part of a comprehensive data protection strategy.” said Richard May CEO of virtualDCS.
The portal and CloudCover suite currently include:
- CloudCover Service portal – A single view and admin portal for all Veeam services.
- CloudCover 365 – A completely web-driven portal for all aspects of Microsoft 365 backup.
- CloudCover K8s – A Cloud adjacent service, allowing for the backup and failover of Kubernetes workloads powered by Kasten by Veeam.
- CloudCover Local – On-premise licence deployment, support and managed service.
- CloudCover Backup – Cloud Connect to our infrastructure.
- CloudCover Replication – Protecting VMware, Hyper-V and Apple workloads.
- CloudCover CDP – Continual Data Protection both from on-premise and the Cloud.
- CloudCover Shuttle – Large portal encrypted hard drives available to rent for both seeding and data recovery.
- CloudCover Cyber Protect – Safeguarding customer data from a complex and ever-growing threat landscape.
Industry innovation
This year, the team was awarded the accolade of being the first ever business in Europe to win a Veeam Innovation Award from Veeam itself, moving on to win ‘Best in Show’ at VeeamON Miami this year, with over 5000 community-led votes.
