FAQ
How does your pricing model help channel partners maintain margins?
Our pricing is designed for predictability. By eliminating egress fees, API call costs, and minimum storage durations, we remove the variable costs that typically make it hard for partners to forecast their expenses and set profitable, fixed prices for their customers.
Is your platform suitable for offering ransomware protection services?
Yes. Our platform includes Immutable Storage via S3 Object Lock. This allows partners to create undeletable and unchangeable copies of their clients' backups, providing a powerful, modern defense against ransomware attacks.
Can I manage multiple customers from a single account?
Absolutely. Our multi-tenant partner console is designed for MSPs and resellers. It allows you to provision, manage, and monitor all your end-customers securely from a single interface, with granular permissions to control access.
What does 'digital sovereignty' mean for my customers?
Digital sovereignty means your customers' data is stored exclusively in certified European data centers, subject only to EU laws like GDPR. It ensures their data is protected from foreign government access requests and meets strict regional compliance requirements.
How do you support partners during the onboarding process?
We support partners with a fully S3-compatible platform that requires minimal technical changes, out-of-the-box integrations with leading backup tools, a dedicated partner console for easy management, and access through a growing network of local distributors like api (DE) and Northamber plc (UK).
What is an 'Always-Hot' storage model?
An 'Always-Hot' storage model means all data is immediately accessible without any delays or extra fees for retrieval. Unlike tiered systems that move data to 'cold' storage, our model eliminates restore delays, which is critical for backup and disaster recovery use cases.
