LogicNow Launches New Release of Max Backup from Maxfocus

The latest version of MAX Backup offers data recovery in as little as five minutes and faster backup of large files and databases.

LogicNow has launched a new version of MAX Backup, its hybrid cloud backup and disaster recovery solution. MAX Backup v15.0 is part of the MAXfocus managed service provider (MSP) and IT support platform.

The latest release allows MSPs to upgrade their customers from a “Backup as a Service” offering, to a full mission-critical “Disaster Recovery as a Service” solution. MAX Backup v15.0 delivers the most up-to-the minute protection by backing-up 80 percent faster, states LogicNow, and minimizes time to recovery (TTR) by making standby images available in as little as 5 minutes after failure.

MAX Backup v15.0 builds on previous releases that focused on the efficiency of backup processes and real-time notification. The new release allows customers to use pay-per-use public cloud services such as Amazon Web Services or Microsoft Azure as recovery targets.

The new features of MAX Backup v15.0 include:

  • Standby Image – Combines all the benefits of a granular, file-level backup with a full and quickly recoverable VM image.
  • Backup Accelerator – Reduces the backup “pre-processing” time through continuous monitoring of changes.
  • Cloud Recovery Targets – The update introduces two new Cloud Recovery Targets for the Virtual Disaster Recovery and Continuous Restore features. This provides IT service providers with the opportunity to move from “Backup as a Service” to “Disaster Recovery as a Service” without the need for their own infrastructure, by using a bring-your-public-cloud (BYPC) model. Additionally, with Amazon Web Service (AWS) EC2 and Microsoft Azure support, users can now specify these new remote cloud targets for recovery, or one of the existing local recovery targets (VMware vSphere, local VMDK or Microsoft Hyper-V).

“MSPs want to be able to provide more value to their customers. Backup can easily be seen as a business continuity box-ticking exercise – as long as everything is safe if the worst happens, then all is well,” says Chris Groot vice president, sales, MAX Backup & Recovery. “But we and the MSPs we work with know that with disaster recovery, the speed of backup and the speed of recovery is vital. The new features and new direction of MAX Backup v15.0 mean that MSPs can offer disaster recovery services where downtime will be measured in minutes rather than hours, positioning them as the best provider of this mission-critical service to their clients.”
