NinjaOne has reported increased adoption of its NinjaOne Backup solution, which is used by over 15,000 customers. The tool is used to protect endpoints, servers, and SaaS applications, reflecting demand from IT teams and managed service providers (MSPs) for backup capabilities within a unified IT operations platform.

NinjaOne Backup supports device and SaaS data protection within the NinjaOne Unified IT Operations Platform. It includes backup options for applications such as Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, and Microsoft Entra, with automated backup functions intended to support compliance requirements and data recovery processes.

Recent updates to the product include:

  • Advanced Backup Engine: A redesigned engine intended to improve storage efficiency, reduce resource usage, and increase backup speed, reducing manual intervention for IT teams and MSPs.
  • AI-Driven Verification: The Boot Verify feature automates testing of backup image recoverability using AI in a virtual environment, supporting validation of backup integrity.
  • Expanded Compliance Features: Includes backup retention options of up to 10 years, automated alerts for policy changes, and multi-factor authentication for selected operations.

"IT teams and MSPs have enough on their plates without having to manage backups as a standalone, siloed workflow,” said Matt Hastings, SVP, Product Management at NinjaOne. “NinjaOne Backup gives them time back with faster backups, less storage overhead, and simpler compliance. Our customers are already using that time to take on more clients and strategic work.”  

Through a single console, organisations can look to monitor backup status and manage recovery processes, with automation and controls supporting data protection and compliance requirements.
