In their own words
Cove Data Protection
Cove Data Protection brings backup, disaster recovery, and archiving for servers, workstations, and SaaS data into a cloud-first service managed from a web dashboard. It covers physical and virtual machines alongside Microsoft 365, including Exchange, OneDrive, SharePoint, and Teams; Google Workspace sources listed include Gmail, Calendar, My Drive, Shared drives, and Contacts. Recovery options range from file and folder restores to bare-metal and virtual disaster recovery, with local or cloud server recovery also available. Standby Image can stage a bootable virtual machine in VMware ESXi, Microsoft Hyper-V, or Microsoft Azure. Backups can run as often as every 15 minutes, and N-able says TrueDelta can move up to 60 times less data than traditional image backup products. Included pooled cloud storage supports configurable retention up to 10 years. N-able describes encrypted, immutable backups isolated from the local network by default. Supported operating systems include Windows, macOS, and GNU/Linux. Pricing is on request; a 30-day trial is listed, and there is no free plan.
