x360Recover D2C

Backup Direct-to-Cloud (D2C) without an Appliance

Back up all remote endpoints, desktops, laptops, servers, and workstations directly to the secure Axcient Cloud, your private cloud, or in the public cloud without any pricey appliances.

x360Recover

Backup with an Appliance

For clients seeking a traditional backup and disaster recovery (BDR) system, MSPs can offer x360Recover with an appliance. Built on the same Chain-Free backup technology and using the same secure Axcient Cloud, x360Recover provides comprehensive local recovery and instant virtualization.

Flexible by Design with BYOD and BYOC

Axcient is unique in providing our MSP partners with the greatest choice and flexibility of any vendor in the channel. Because x360Recover is cloud and hardware agnostic, it enables Axcient's BYOD approach (Bring Your Own Device) meaning you can build or repurpose your own hardware for use as a local BDR appliance or purchase a turn-key hardware and software bundle from Axcient. Partners can purchase hardware from Axcient outright or enroll in the Axcient hardware leasing program.

Additionally, BYOC (Bring Your Own Cloud) means that you can use the Axcient Cloud, provide your own cloud through another data center, or do both to retain multiple offsite copies of critical data.

Case Studies & Testimonials

Explore how real MSPs have benefitted from switching from Datto to the Axcient x360 Platform for their business continuity and disaster recovery (BCDR) needs.

The numbers speak for themselves, which goes straight to gross profit. It’s a drastic move of the needle from a business perspective, and it’s pretty phenomenal what we’ve been able to achieve with Axcient in terms of lowering the cost of the solution itself and reducing the amount of time our engineers have to spend on tickets.

Scott Kube | VP, Sales & Marketing, Cygnus Systems

With an MSP-only vendor like Axcient, support is more channel-focused, and I definitely appreciate that. You get a higher level of support which is nice. Axcient pretty much does all the work, and they don’t ask me to do anything. Once it’s fixed, they tell me to check it, and it’s always been great.

Benjamin Jones | Director of Cyber Security, Central Technology Solutions

The relationship that we have with Axcient is something that we value tremendously. Axcient values the relationship we have with them and takes the time to address our concerns. It’s definitely a team effort and behind that team is just great people.

Robert Cioffi | COO & Co-Founder, Progressive Computing

There have been many times where Axcient has quite literally saved the bacon of these businesses and you wonder if they would still be in business today if we didn’t have Axcient.

Mark Jamieson | President, 2W Technologies

Axcient is extremely accessible when it comes to tech support. They’re incredibly agile when it comes to solving issues that need quick solutions, which is incredibly important especially in the legal field.

Kevin Dunn | President, DataTrends Technology

Cygnus Systems Saves $12,000 Over Datto Every Month

Cygnus Systems had evolved their backup and disaster recovery (BDR) services similarly to many MSPs. First trying to piecemeal different vendors together, then moving to Datto as their one source vendor. Unfortunately, costs continued to rise with Datto due to expensive hardware and engineering time. 

CTS Picks Axcient Over Datto for Cost, Capabilities, and Support

Central Technology Solutions (CTS) wasn’t necessarily looking to switch BCDR solutions. Still, the business benefits were undisputable when Axcient offered a lower price with more functionality. CTS made the business decision to move everything off of Datto and into one solution with Axcient.

Revolution Group Boosts Margins After Consolidating BDR

With Axcient’s comprehensive business continuity and disaster recovery (BCDR), Revolution Group is solving multiple use cases with one solution to support operational maturity and efficiency by reducing technician training time, bolstering security and lower recurring costs for overall margin growth.

Switch to Simplify

Simple data management and cybersecurity automation are essential for lowering total costs, increasing profits, and accelerating rapid and reliable recovery. Many MSPs move to Axcient because other products are rigid and require additional tools, labor, oversight, support, and costs, cutting your margins and slowing response times.
