Doyenz is supplying the cloud storage for LabTech partners via a disk-based backup and recovery solution - StorageCraft ShadowProtect. ShadowProtect offers enormous flexibility in replicating servers (OS, applications and data) to the cloud and back again with ShadowProtect's automated Hardware Independent Restore technology. Instead of unnecessary or lengthy down time, users can restore the server and be back working in minutes because they can failover servers by using VirtualBoot to boot the server as a virtual machine, or pre-stage the server as a VM with HeadStart Restore technology.

"MSPs need an efficient method of protecting their customers' information and monitoring their systems to prevent problems before they happen," said Curt James, Vice President of Marketing and Business Development at StorageCraft.  "This strategic relationship between LabTech, Doyenz and StorageCraft not only allows MSPs to keep tabs on servers and resolve issues before they become problems, it also allows them to backup and failover systems in the cloud, in case of a catastrophe that can't be prevented."

"By partnering with LabTech and StorageCraft, we are proud to offer the channel a truly innovative, end-to-end disaster recovery solution, previously only available to enterprise market," said Eric Webster, VP of Sales and Marketing for Doyenz. "Managed Service Providers can now ensure complete business continuity and manage their clients remotely with LabTech—and make significant profit margins while doing so."

In addition to jointly promoting the Shadowcloud offering to LabTech partners, LabTech will also sell a version of Doyenz with the Doyenz user interface available through the LabTech console.  Future enhancements to the integration will include the ability to deploy the Doyenz agent through LabTech and manage notifications being sent from Doyenz through LabTech.
