solutions lose more than $50 billion due to application downtime—
$26.5 billion in the United States alone. As a result, U.S. businesses lose
roughly $20 billion each year to permanent data loss, and 40 percent of
businesses that experience a massive data loss never reopen.” 1

PROACTIVE MONITORING AND
MANAGEMENT TO MINIMIZE ISSUES
▉▉ 24/7 monitoring of critical metrics—not just during
business hours
▉▉ Real time incident remediation—day or night
▉▉ Guaranteed service levels, backup success rates, and critical
restore response time
▉▉ Expert execution of updates and upgrades, plus planning for
growth in your backup environment
Before MBS, several customers planned to purchase additional
infrastructure to resolve backup performance issues. The MBS team
determined that misconfigured virus scans and network bottlenecks were
causing performance degradation. The team helped reconfigure the virus
scans, which resolved the network bottlenecks. Performance increased,
eliminating the need to purchase additional infrastructure.1

required to confidently submit a significant CapEx request.
The request was approved.1
