Veeam Backup-as-a-Service is much more than just backup—it provides a fast, flexible and reliable recovery of virtualized applications and data service delivered by Vox’s highly skilled engineers to ensure high availability of your Vox hosted cloud services.

With Vox’s Veeam BaaS, you are licensed per VM backed up on a monthly subscription.

Veeam is agentless, i.e. you do not require to install it on the VM, we simply point it to the IP address and the software does the rest. Veeam performs Image-level VM backups that creates application-consistent backups.

Veeam has application-aware processing, i.e. Veeam seamlessly adjusts its resource utilisation to that of applications running on your VM to ensure it doesn’t impact it negatively.

Vox leverages of Veeam’s Instant VM Recovery functionality to be able to recover a failed VM in less than 5 minutes. Instant Recovery essentially runs your VM from the backup data while we restore the original VM to its previous state before cutting you over thus ensuring minimal downtime.

Vox’s engineers monitor backups 24/7, rerun any failed backups and will notify you of backup performance issues before operational impact to ensure your backups are always successful.

Based on Veeam’s 2014 Data Centre Availability Report, IT directors report that only 5% of their backups are being tested meaning that the vast majority of backups are not verified and could fail. That is why Vox utilises Veeam’s SureBackup to automatically verify the recoverability of your backups. SureBackup automatically starts VMs in an isolated Virtual Lab environment, performs a set of tests and sends a status report to your mailbox, so you know if your VMs are recoverable at any time.
