Monitor all clients’ backups in the Cloud

Monitor all clients’ backups in the Cloud

14.06.2021 Nyon – Actiphy is simplifying the monitoring of backup jobs with a new online portal designed mainly for IT Resellers and Managed Service Providers. Actiphy Portal Service (APS) has been specially designed with IT Channel Partners in mind, to monitor clients’ backup infrastructure and generate reports from a single location on the web. It is a free!

Actiphy Portal Service is a powerful cloud-based help for IT Partners’ daily management of backup tasks. This tool is free of charge and does not require users from switching to more expensive backup licences, as other backup and DR competitors often require.

Service Providers who already use ServerEYE, Solarwind (Acmeo), PRTG Pässler or others to monitor their systems, should continue to use their Remote Monitoring and Management tools as they inspect all areas outside of backup. Should technicians wish to know more details about backup tasks, they can get more information with the APS console. A perfect synergy!

The missing piece for IT Resellers and MSPs.

The existing local console is taken to the Cloud with APS and IT Partners no longer need to use VPN connections to monitor all their clients.

APS completes the Business Continuity offering of Actiphy. It is the perfect addition to the latest free adds-on from Actiphy: automated backup testing (creation, consistency, and backup file bootability) as backup isolation which protects backup files from being encrypted by ransomware once they have been created. With the additional APS Cloud-based portal, SMBs are offered a complete Business Continuity solution at a very affordable price. SMBs have all the tools to protect their data and assets in this post-pandemic time.

IT Channel partners who do not yet use a Remote Monitoring and Management tool to centrally monitor backups of all their clients now have a free option to do so with Actiphy Portal Service.

How to get Actiphy Portal Service?

Register to Actiphy Portal Service beta programme on the following link: https://landings.actiphy.eu/en/missing-piece     

No specific system requirements are needed to use Actiphy Portal Service and all ActiveImage Protector agentless and agent-based clients with a direct https internet access to the cloud-based portal location can be monitored.

What can you already do with Actiphy Portal Service?

  • – Dashboard: General information about the status of agents and storage, and any problems that may have been detected in the past 7 days.
  • – Sites: Create a site to group agents for reporting purposes. The portal was designed with MSP resellers in mind, each site can represent a physical location of agents to be managed, or a company.
  • – Users: Create, remove or temporarily disable users. The current beta version only supports creating users of the type “Admin”.
  • – Licencing: general state of agent licenses and get an overview of license status.

What is the future of Actiphy Portal Service?

The full version will be released after having taken into considerations all feedback received during beta-testing.

Once the full version is release, the Japanese head-quarter of Actiphy plans to continue developing APS and to make it more of a management console in the future, with installing, upgrading, and configuring everything from the Cloud. Exciting time ahead!

Software update (ActiveVisor)

ActiveVisor is a centralized backup management console for ActiveImage Protector, providing a visual representation of statistical data, real-time monitoring of backup status, storage space availability, and helping you to deploy installations, agent-based and agentless backup tasks, as well as schedules. In the event of a backup failure, ActiveVisor displays where the failure occurred so you can address it as soon as possible. System administrators can substantially reduce workloads by monitoring and managing the backup status and configured backup settings for ActiveImage Protector from any location.

New features

  • – Enhanced integration with Active Directory includes selecting specific machines from the list of Active Directory search results and adding those machines to the list of managed ActiveImage Protector systems.
  • – Get notified when new ActiveImage Protector agent-based and agentless installations are added.
  • – ActiveImage Protector agents automatically find and connect to ActiveVisor consoles for ease of use.
  • – Push install ActiveImage Protector software patches and updates to save time by initiating deployments from a single location.
  • – Manage and monitor agentless backups of virtual machines remotely.

 

The updated build version 6.0.2.1507 was released in EMEA on 1st of March 2021.

Standard features

  • – Administrators can manage, monitor, and modify backup agents, and task schedules from any location using a browser-based console.
  • – Manage Azure Virtual Clients connected to local network domains.
  • – Auto-scroll option in the monitoring panel displays alerts of the latest changes occurring on protected systems: the system information automatically displays at the top of the panel any status changes.
  • – The dashboard window provides a graphical representation of computers on the network, ActiveImage protected machines, and visually draws attention to the status of task execution.
  • – Systems can be grouped for management purposes. Groups can be rearranged, if necessary, based on changes to a systems configuration.
  • – Schedules may be configured based on individual system requirements, or apply a predefined scheduled template to deploy a pattern-based backup schedule to batches of systems.

ActiveVisor is provided at no additional cost to ActiveImage Protector users with a valid annual maintenance contract.

NetJapan becomes Actiphy

Tokyo – On July 1, 2020 NetJapan, A Leading Publisher Of Backup, Disaster Recovery, And Virtualization Software Becomes Actiphy, Inc

Our state-of-the-art backup, disaster recovery, and virtualization technology, has been a leading software solution for nearly a quarter century. In changing our name to Actiphy we will expand our sales network with a renewed focus on global markets.

BACKGROUND

Founded in 1996, we began developing and distributing an image-based backup software solution. Since that time, we’ve introduced a number of leading-edge technologies to the Japanese markets. Our flagship product, ActiveImage Protector has become a major system backup and disaster recovery solution in the global markets.

As the use of big data accelerates, networks evolve, malware proliferates, AI, and IoT technologies emerge, the value of data backup and recovery increases exponentially. By taking advantage of our broad range of technologies, we will continue to innovate upon our existing data protection solutions.

As we continue to take on new challenges in the development of one-of-a-kind technologies to make a difference in the world we want our new company name, Actiphy, to reflect our determination to remain ”Swift, Active and Reliable”.
