October 7th, 2020 - Leaseweb Global, a leading hosting and cloud services, today announced the integration of Veeam-powered solutions with its Leaseweb Cloud Services. Veeam is the leader in Backup solutions that deliver Cloud Data Management™. The new services are available in several Leaseweb locations across the globe: Amsterdam-1 and Amsterdam-2, London, Frankfurt, and will be available in Washington, D.C. before the end of the year. Organizations that trust Leaseweb to help them expand internationally are now able to enter into different regions knowing they have Veeam’s industry-leading solutions integrated with their Leaseweb cloud services.
This announcement comes on the heels of the recent market introduction of Leaseweb Cloud Connect, and further demonstrates the company’s commitment to continued investment in its cloud portfolio. This announcement is in direct response to customer requests for cloud services to be accessible at each of their global entities.
Leaseweb and Veeam first partnered in 2018, when Leaseweb launched its Backup-as-a-Service offering at its first cloud data center facility in Amsterdam. Over that period, Leaseweb has grown its cloud services through a strong commitment to increasing and improving its high-performing cloud services while continuing to offer them at competitive pricing.
Through the success and growth of Leaseweb’s cloud offerings, the company learned its customers wanted to extend deployment of these same services into their global offices to ensure both a close proximity to their customers while also maintaining full controls of the data. Moreover, companies seeking to grow internationally requested that these solutions be available in additional strategic markets. The expansion of the partnership means that the service is now more widely available across Leaseweb’s network of entities–with more locations planned for 2021.
“One current market trend is the expansion of the ‘as-a-service’ model. This is due to companies increasingly moving towards cloud solutions—be it private, public, or hybrid-or-multi cloud,” observed by Gonzalo de la Rocha, product manager, Leaseweb Global. “The current global situation is a challenge for many companies. Most are feeling the need to both become more efficient while taking on the extra project of moving workloads to cloud models. At the same time, this large amount of data being moved to the cloud requires a leading technology to be properly managed and protected in terms of security and resiliency. Veeam allows us to offer the resiliency and control our customers need, available with no entry fees and under competitive OPEX models.”
As a leader for data center backup and recovery solutions and majority market share holder, Veeam was the obvious partner choice for Leaseweb—a company which is devoted to helping organizations scale their businesses reliably and effectively. Veeam is a 100% channel-focused business and its customer-satisfaction scores are the highest in the industry at 3.5x the average with proven capabilities through upwards of 375,000 global customers.
“This expansion of our Leaseweb partnership into new territories is taking place at a time when organizations need to guarantee the protection and management of their data more than ever before,” commented Bert van Meel, senior territory manager, Cloud, Benelux, Veeam. “Despite the circumstances, companies are continuing their digital transformation initiatives and have experienced the criticality of deploying cloud services—which includes data protection through reliable and expedient backup services. We are pleased to partner with an organization so committed to their customers’ success.”
