THE CUSTOMER JOURNEY

Three steps to establish your independent backup layer.

No appliance deployment. No lengthy setup project. The service is designed around cloud authorization and the protection level you choose.

1

Choose your service level

Start with Essential, Managed, or Backup Assurance based on how much backup management, recovery assistance, testing, and reporting you want.

2

Authorize your cloud environment

Your administrator approves the required access for Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace so backup protection can be connected and configured.

No local backup server or appliance is required.

3

Cloud backup begins

Once configured, protected cloud data is backed up automatically. SecondSky involvement then follows the service level you selected.

HOW IT WORKS FAQ

Common questions about getting protected.

Do I need to install backup hardware?

No local backup appliance is required. SecondSky is built around cloud-to-cloud protection.

What does my administrator need to do?

An authorized administrator approves the required connection to the Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace environment so backup protection can be configured.

Does SecondSky manage my Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace tenant?

No. Your organization continues to administer its productivity environment. SecondSky provides the backup service layer associated with the plan you select.

Who helps when I need to recover data?

Managed Backup and Backup Assurance include SecondSky-assisted recovery. Customer recovery options available directly through the underlying platform depend on the service configuration.

What is different about Backup Assurance?

Backup Assurance adds scheduled non-destructive recovery testing and a monthly SecondSky Backup Assurance Report to Managed Backup. The report summarizes protection status, backup health, issues identified, corrective actions, and recovery-test results.

Is there a setup fee?

No. SecondSky currently charges a $0 setup fee.

Am I locked into a long-term contract?

No. SecondSky plans are month-to-month with no long-term contract. You can cancel anytime.
