In the spirit of Valentine’s Day, we often hear about love, loyalty and protecting what matters most. In much the same way, your data deserves protection, devotion, and a fail-safe plan. For MSPs and SMBs alike, data loss isn’t just a technical issue, it’s a heartbreaker for business continuity, customer trust, and reputation. This webinar will explore how you can treat your data with the love and protection it deserves before something goes wrong.

Join Matt Aldridge, Sr. Principal Solutions Consultant and Philip Nowlan, Lead Solutions Consultant as we delve into how to build a resilient data protection strategy that covers backing up cloud apps, safeguarding endpoints, and enabling continuity and disaster recovery.  Plus, we discuss the benefits of a “Bring Your Own Cloud” approach to backups, and discuss some exciting capabilities in this area.  When disaster strikes, your business stays in love, with uptime, success, and your customers.

By the end of the webinar, attendees will:

• Understand the key risks and exposure points for data loss in today’s MSP/SMB world.
• Be familiar with practical backup strategies (cloud-app, endpoint, server/hybrid) and how they map to recovery objectives.
• Learn how BYOC server backup can strengthen compliance and cost control while simplifying management.
• Be equipped to package data protection as a value proposition, to clients (for MSPs) or to leadership (for SMBs), framed in business outcomes, not just tech.

Join us, and let’s make your data “feel the love” so you’re ready when challenges arise, and your business stays resilient, connected and thriving.
