MSPs' Ability to Amp Up Quality of Cybersecurity Services Increases with New Complimentary Integration of PRTG Hosted Monitor and Acronis Cyber Protect Cloud

PRESS RELEASE — MSP SUMMIT/CHANNEL PARTNERS LEADERSHIP SUMMIT — ORLANDO, FL — Sept. 14, 2022 — Paessler AG (Booth 609), the monitoring experts, and Acronis, the global leader in cyber protection, are now offering complimentary integration of their two platforms to create an even more powerful cyber security solution to help managed service providers (MSPs) increase the value and quality of their cyber security services to their customer. As the threat of cyber-attacks show no signs of abating, creating a unified solution to help MSPs be better armed to protect their clients’ datacenters and end points across verticals such as healthcare, government, education, manufacturing, and other industries, is even more imperative than ever before.

According to Acronis’ 2020 Cyberthreats Report, 57% of attacks are missed by traditional antivirus solutions and 69% of system administrators spend more time managing tools than defending against cyberthreats. The complimentary integration of Paessler’s PRTG Hosted Monitor and Acronis’ Cyber Protect Cloud allows MSPs to monitor from a single source, expanding their scope of services and eliminating the need for a separate RMM tool.

“Managing the IT infrastructure for multiple clients can be challenging, especially considering each client has their own unique needs and expectations. With the integration of PRTG and Cyber Protect Cloud, MSPs can deepen their relationships with their clients through their heightened ability to protect critical systems, no matter the vertical markets they serve,” said Peter Campisi, regional manager, channel sales – Americas, Paessler AG.

“The integration of our two solutions helps MSPs bring a more modern and smarter cyber security solution to market that is more efficient, secure and easy to use,” said Rick Helby, director of product management, Acronis. “The integration of PRTG Hosted Monitor’s comprehensive monitoring with Acronis’ Cyber Protect Cloud helps reduce complexity by efficiently and securely monitoring cyber protection plans, tasks, and statuses, all through one pane of glass that is intuitive and easy to use, while also providing a low total cost of ownership.”
