Reducing data restoration time and reliability challenges is simple with Backup because it’s built into the Azure platform, with seamless support for virtual machines running in Azure and on-premises. Backup is cost-effective because it doesn’t require any additional infrastructure, and helps to keep your data safe from ransomware with multiple authentication layers.
Eliminate unnecessary costs
Eliminate the need for tape or an offsite backup with Backup. Get cost-effective short- and long-term retention, and restore the individual VMs, files, and folders you need—in Azure or on-premises—at no additional cost.
Instantly enable backup
Easily back up any virtual machines in Azure or on-premises. Enable cloud backup that’s tightly integrated in the Azure virtual machine experience, allowing you to restore individual files, folders, and entire VMs—and never lose track of your assets with dynamic reports.
Guard against data loss from ransomware
Protect your data from ransomware with Backup without leaving the Azure portal. Enable multifactor authentication, create alerts for suspicious online backup activity, and counteract unauthorized retention or deletions.
"We don't have to worry about managing space on expensive, purpose-built backup storage systems. We have no tape costs, management costs, nothing. Backup is dramatically cheaper with Azure."
