MSP360 Managed Backup is an easy-to-use solution with centralized management, monitoring, reporting and free web-based remote access. The platform is natively integrated with Wasabi to enable best-in-class data protection for Windows, Linux, macOS, VMware, Hyper-V, Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace.
