Continuum Upgrades Continuity247 BDR Platform

Powered by IBM Cloud, the new version of Continuity247 includes new features based on feedback from MSP partners.

Managed IT services provider Continuum has upgraded its fully managed backup and disaster recovery (BDR) platform, Continuity247. Now available to MSPs industry-wide, the new features of the platform include instant restore for virtual workloads, the choice of hardware or software RAID, and desktop support.

“With Continuity247, Continuum offers a fully managed BDR platform that combines the reliability and security of IBM Cloud with a cost-effective solution that delivers better margins for MSPs,” says Michael George, CEO at Continuum. “Our predictable pricing and full range of packages are what today’s MSPs need to offer their clients a tailored BDR solution to manage their businesses. This new release is based on feedback from MSP partners after an exclusive launch to them earlier in the year. They were very clear in their additional needs, and we are delighted to deliver these new features to new and existing partners.”

The Continuity247 fully managed option is supported by the company’s Network Operations Center (NOC) where certified professionals monitor, troubleshoot, and remediate any problems to ensure backups continuously run 24x7x365. Continuum offers a monthly billing model for Continuity247 with no annual contracts and a range of flexible packages (Local, Solo, Complete, and Flex), designed to streamline budgeting and better align with business needs, while the pooled storage supports scalability to handle varying workloads.

“The updates to Continuity247 are designed to let MSP partners address a distinct and fast-growing opportunity,” says Carl Brooks, Analyst at The 451 Group. “End users are eager for better and faster options for true backup, disaster recovery and business continuity solutions in the cloud model. Continuum’s use of IBM Cloud as a backend ensures that security, reliability, and compliance are built-in features of the platform.”

Cloud storage is provided via two redundant IBM Cloud data centers in the U.S. to ensure security, reliability, and availability of MSP customer data. The data centers are ISO 27001 and ISO 27018 compliant and operated by certified security and IT professionals. This aims to directly address data latency concerns and help MSP customers, especially those from the financial services, government, and healthcare industries, to comply with regulatory requirements.

Additionally, Continuum has announced a special promotion for its Vault BDR customers. The company will convert any existing Vault appliances to Continuity247 at no cost.
