Keepit, an independent, cloud-native data protection and recovery provider, has announced it has signed a strategic agreement with Hammer Distribution, an enterprise-focused value-added distributor empowering partners with best-in-class infrastructure, cybersecurity and data solutions. The partnership will enhance Keepit’s offering in the UK and Ireland, helping customers secure business-critical SaaS data with an independent recovery layer. Through local data centres, Keepit and Hammer will support customers in staying compliant with evolving UK regulations.
Enhancing cloud resilience and data sovereignty
“Across the board, we’re seeing a huge increase in demand for specialised SaaS data protection. With data sovereignty becoming a core principle for our partners and customers, Keepit’s local data centres and vendor-independent cloud are the perfect answer to the growing need for cloud resilience,” said Alex Walsh, Regional Vice President, EMEA North at Keepit.
Keepit’s cloud backup and recovery platform currently secures 14 SaaS applications and the company has committed to continue adding critical applications to its portfolio. With per-seat pricing, Keepit’s solution offers budgeting predictability for both customers and partners.
“By teaming up with expert distributors such as Hammer Distribution, we’re able to offer high-quality, localised support and scale our presence rapidly across the UK channel,” said Walsh.
“We chose to partner with Keepit as we see an increase in demand for third-party SaaS backup that complements existing cloud investments,” said Dominic Ryles, Director of Cloud and Cybersecurity at Hammer Distribution.
