The DRaaS Revenue Opportunity for MSPs On-Demand Probax Pivots to Innovate:


Australian Vendor Probax has launched their innovative Backup for Microsoft Office 365 solution to the Australian channel.

As organisations look to place more critical services in the cloud, there is a huge opportunity for those able to deliver the data protection and availability needed. Probax has now enabled its channel partners to take advantage of this new and rapidly growing market opportunity.

Probax Backup for Office 365 is a cloud-to-cloud backup as a service offering which provides a simple, automated and secure backup solution for Office 365. Powered by Veeam, it provides complete control and protection of Office 365 Exchange, so organisations can rest assured that their data is recoverable if a mailbox becomes corrupt; or is accidentally or maliciously deleted.

Starting from AUD $2.70 per month per mailbox, Probax Backup for Office 365 provides a comprehensive backup solution for Office 365 Exchange, with unlimited storage and retention in Amazon Web Services (AWS).

Kevin Allan, Probax Founder, CTO and 2018 Veeam Vanguard explains their solution: “primarily using Veeam’s APIs we were able to build an integration between the Veeam Backup for Office 365 product and our Control management platform” he said, “This has allowed us to offer a true cloud-to-cloud backup solution which requires no software to be installed and only requires an Exchange Online 365 Account to access the Organisation.”

“Microsoft has stated that it is running about a year ahead of projected adoption numbers for Office 365. This presents a tremendous opportunity for MSPs but they need to demonstrate how they can add value to their client’s SaaS deployments or they risk being left behind by the competition.” said Sam Meegahage, Probax CEO.

“With the launch of our new Backup for Office 365 solution, we have not only provided our partners with yet another product that adds a growing recurring revenue stream to their business, we’ve also provided our partners with the necessary tools to easily articulate and demonstrate the value this solution brings to their clients.”

Sam voices his optimism: “We have spent the past few months tirelessly working with Veeam and a handful of Australian partners to build and refine the perfect solution, and I am excited to finally be launching it to the Australian channel.
