HubStor Inc., the leading provider of data-aware cloud storage solutions, announced extended support for Microsoft Office 365 with new data protection, archiving, and recovery for Exchange Online. With the HubStor service available exclusively in Microsoft Azure, clients can bring their own Azure account to protect, discover, and manage Office 365 information assets conveniently and securely with low-cost public cloud economics.
In May 2017, new research published by Gartner called for IT leaders using or evaluating Office 365 to consider investing in third-party backup and recovery tools for more improved recovery speed and flexible options for response to malicious attack.
“As organizations shift their IT strategy to the cloud, they discover requirements for data protection and business continuity that exceed what is natively available in their SaaS applications,” said Geoff Bourgeois, CEO, HubStor. “The biggest concern with SaaS applications such as Exchange Online or SharePoint Online is protection against accidental or malicious deletion. Many businesses want recovery features that exceed the built-in deleted items retention of Office 365.”
With extended support for Exchange Online, Microsoft customers will benefit from:
“Rounding out HubStor’s support for Office 365 is one of the top enhancement requests we receive from our client base,” said Greg Campbell, CTO, HubStor. “Adding backup, archiving, and recovery for Exchange Online is our latest advancement towards HubStor becoming the most comprehensive data protection and information management service for Office 365 customers.”
HubStor support for Exchange Online is available now.
