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 1 Based on an actual customer example in 2011–2012.

MBS completed a comprehensive review of their backup policy configuration and retention requirements, then provided the IT staff the data required to confidently submit a significant CapEx request. The request was approved.1
