Anittel Success Story

Ensuring business continuity has always been a major component of Anittel’s managed solutions.

After offering an in-house cloud backup and disaster recovery solution for several years, high costs, insufficient reliability and a lack of reporting functionality led Anittel’s management towards a rethink, ultimately deciding to engage a dedicated cloud services provider to partner with.

Michael Jolakoski, Operations Manager for Anittel, identified Probax as the solution for offering their clients reliable, cost-effective backup and disaster recovery services. Michael and his team put Probax under the microscope for 6 months and were impressed with how Probax reduced complexity, the level of service and the detailed reporting available to Anittel and its end customers.

As a tier-one solutions provider, Anittel needed a reliable data protection solution that would deliver more sophisticated reporting functionality and increased efficiencies of scale for the team.

Having been thoroughly impressed with the results of their 6 month proof of concept, Anittel began migrating its data protection services from its internally hosted solution to Probax. At the same time, Anittel moved from their legacy backup software provider to Veeam.

Using a combination of Veeam software, Probax Backup as a Service (BaaS) and Archive as a Service (AaaS) solutions, Anittel was able to achieve Hyper-Availability for all virtual, physical and cloud based workloads - all from a single management console.

The ability of Veeam and Probax to provide a reliable service, while simplifying their existing data protection systems allowed Anittel to better monitor and manage their data protection solutions, and self-provision Veeam licenses , creating greater efficiencies of scale for the team. In addition, they no longer had to dedicate engineering staff to troubleshoot and prop up their aging and often unreliable internal solution.
