"Moscow-based Runa Capital has led a $2 million investment in BackupAgent to bolster the Dutch company's cloud backup platform for small and medium-sized service providers. \r\n\r\nPrior backer Solid Ventures also participated in the round.\r\n\r\nBackupAgent delivers cloud backup software to service providers, hosting companies and telcos, offering a comprehensive platform with a central, browser-based management interface to manage all backups across cloud services and devices in company networks. \r\n\r\nBackupAgent says its software is platform-agnostic and can handle large laptop/desktop environments as well as server farms with file- and database servers and virtual environments. \r\n\r\nWhat it claims sets it apart from the (many) other providers of cloud backup solutions are &amp;quot;deep branding possibilities&amp;quot; and an API for integration with any third-party control panel.\r\n\r\nBackupAgent says its platform is currently deployed at more than 400 service providers, hosting companies and telcos, including KPN in The Netherlands and Portugal Telecom. Overall, the Netherlands-based company claims more than 35,000 end users globally.\r\n\r\nImage credit: Thinkstock"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
