CloudBerry Backup 5.7 includes several new features such as support for hybrid backups to local and cloud storage in one pass, restoring image-based backups directly to Google Compute Engine virtual machines, restoring backups as VMware virtual machines, and faster NTFS file scanning. It also adds support for the Azure Archive storage tier and Wasabi cloud storage. The updated product provides all-inclusive support for hybrid backups, faster restores of images to GCP and VMware, and uses the Backup Operators API for more secure local backups.

Always check to make sure you are using the latest deck (check the revision date on the this slide)
This deck embeds the Google Font PT Sans Narrow so you can present on any computer even if the font is not pre-installed (download here if you do not have it: https://fonts.google.com/specimen/PT+Sans+Narrow)
Always present this deck in slideshow (F5) or presenter view (ALT+F5) and never in design view – you can use Presenter View ALT+F5 is you have two monitors – if you only have one monitor, check to make sure Presenter View shows up correctly on the webcast for attendees as you do not want them to see the slide notes in presenter view
Optionally add your name and title to the main slide – or remove if not needed
Use this slide for webcasts – not needed for one-on-one presentations (hide / show from the slide sorter on left by right clicking the slide and selecting the Hide option)
If you’re not conducting a poll in the webcast, remove that bullet
About CloudBerry slide designed to tell the attendees a little bit about the company and what we offer
Don’t go into any detail on this slide since everything will be explained in the upcoming slides
Simply let them know the main products we provide, that we are designed for SMBs, we support many cloud storage vendors which we’ll discuss in more detail in the coming slides, that we are partners with many companies, and we have many customers
High-level overview of the backup product
Designed to let customers know we support backing up desktops and servers, the major operating systems and Microsoft applications, virtual machines, and O365/G Suite
We are a bring-your-own-cloud storage solution meaning customers can decide which cloud storage provider has the features and pricing that works best for them. We don’t charge for storage, keeping costs low for our customers
Our backup architecture is very advanced, providing fast backups and restores (that we’ll discuss shortly in more detail)
That our licensing is low cost
Describes the high-level main features of our backup products
We support image backup for entire computers or volumes and support bare-metal restore so customers can restore an entire computer easily
We can back up files and folders
We support incremental and block-level backups so we only back up what has changed and reduce the amount of storage needed
We support Microsoft VSS for application consistent backups even when files are locked
We support a hybrid backup feature so customers can easily create backups both locally and in the cloud in a single pass to satisfy the 3-2-1 backup principle: 3 Copies of your data (original location, local, and cloud), 2 different locations (local and cloud), and at least 1 copy offsite (cloud)
We support backup compression to reduce the amount of storage and reduce internet bandwidth
We support encryption to ensure all your files are protected
We provide reports and alerting for any failures (and successful operations)
Describes the more advanced features
Retention options to keep multiple versions of files
We can back up permissions
We can back up network shares
File and Image backups go directly to the cloud without the need for any intermediate storage
We have options to move files between cloud vendors or from the cloud to local storage
We can back up using custom schedules and also include a real-time backup option for those files that need constant protection
We can control the amount of internet bandwidth used by a backup and create maintenance windows to use more bandwidth during off-hours vs business hours
Here we quickly discuss the extensive cloud storage vendor support
Important to highlight the major 3 storage vendors (Amazon, S3/Glacier (don’t go into detail about Glacier), Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud)
Bring-your-own-Cloud Storage – means you select eh vendor, no storage costs from CloudBerry, you pay the vendor directly for lowest cost, and can change storage vendors as needed
Describe our extensive Amazon support:
We support synthetic fulls (describe as a way to quickly create a full backup from an incremental backup in Amazon S3 for faster restores
We support many storage classes for reduced cost including Reduced Redundancy and Infrequent Access Storage options
We support lifecycle policy to move older backups to less costly storage (IA and low-cost Glacier)
We support IAM for security and control
Describe our Google and Azure support (quickly since there’s not a lot of discuss here):
We support the needed storage classes for optimal storage costs
This slide discusses the restore features
You can perform file and folder restore and select the versions or date ranges of files you need – and this can be done from both file, image, and virtual machine backups
You can search for needed file quickly using the Search feature
You can restore entire systems (or volumes) to the same or dissimilar hardware (BMR)
You can also restore entire systems to Amazon EC2, Azure VM, or Google VM
We also offer a self-service restore so customers can restore their own files as needed
This is a slide that details our Exchange and SQL Server support
If you’re on a call with a customer who is not using these application, simply show the slide, mention we support these apps, and move on
Not necessary to go into too much detail here (let the attendees read the bullets as needed or ask questions in the webcast)
What’s important to mention for SQL Server is we support backing up all your SQL Servers using full, differential, and transaction log backups with compression and encryption and we can restore
For Exchange, it’s important to mention we support backing up your Exchange databases using full and incremental VSS backups with compression and encryption and we support mailbox and item-level restores
There is a more-focused MBS presentation. This slide is for an MBS overview when presenting a broad view of the CloudBerry products to an audience.
This slide is designed to talk about the MBS features for MSPs and IT Departments – if this is a webcast that is generic (not focused on MSPs) then it’s important to stress that this is a great solution for both MSPs and IT Departments where centralized management is important (we don’t want to talk about MBS as an MSP-only solution)
Discuss quickly how customers can easily deploy agents and jobs from the management interface, manage licensing and user-access, as well as schedule and view reports for storage use and billing
If there are MSPs, let them know that product can be rebranded as needed so it can be personalized for the service provider
Mention our 3rd party ticketing system integration
Let the audience know we support self-service restores
And we support APIs for integration
This slide is designed to discuss our Microsoft Office 365 and Google G Suite support
If the attendees are not using these services, then just mention we support them and move on
Common features on left include options for where to store backups, that we automatically perform incremental backups and encrypt the backup data
All backup and retention policies can be managed centrally
And we support granular restore for the items listed on the right
No need to go into detail on the O365 and G Suite items on right – just mention these are the services we support
The licensing section is designed to give customers an overview of our licensing
We offer many editions depending on what the customer needs
We offer perpetual and subscription licensing
We provide quantity discounts
And our pricing starts at $29.99
You can mention that if the customer wants to know which editions they would need for their environment, we’d be happy to discuss one on one.
