Veeam Backup & Replication Services

Designed, deployed, and continuously managed Veeam environments for businesses across Greater Sudbury and Northern Ontario VMs, physical servers, Microsoft 365, and immutable cloud backup with documented, tested recovery.

Serving Greater Sudbury, Northern Ontario, and surrounding communities. Remote support available throughout Ontario.

Backups are the difference between a bad week and an extinction-level event. Veeam Backup & Replication is the platform of choice for protecting virtualized servers, physical workloads, and Microsoft 365 — when it's designed and monitored correctly. Most backup failures we investigate are not Veeam's fault: jobs were never tuned, alerts were never reviewed, retention drifted, and nobody tested a restore.

Nickel City Tech Solutions delivers Veeam as a managed service: jobs are designed against your RPO/RTO, alerts are triaged, restores are tested on schedule, and offsite copies are kept immutable so ransomware can't destroy your last line of defence.

What's included

Veeam Design & Sizing

Veeam server, proxy, repository, and retention design based on workload size and recovery objectives.

VMware & Hyper-V Backup

Image-level backups for VMware and Hyper-V hosts with application-aware processing.

Veeam for Microsoft 365

Independent backup of Exchange, OneDrive, SharePoint, and Teams with immutable cloud retention.

Immutable Repositories

Hardened Linux, object-lock S3, or partner cloud repositories that ransomware cannot destroy.

Offsite Replication

Backup copy and replication jobs to secondary sites or cloud for disaster recovery.

Monitoring & Alert Triage

Daily job review, failure remediation, and monthly status reporting.

Restore Testing & DR Exercises

Scheduled restore validation and annual disaster-recovery exercises for critical workloads.

Backup Identity Hygiene

Separate backup credentials, MFA on Veeam consoles, and least-privilege service accounts.

Who it's for

  • Businesses running on-prem or hybrid VMware / Hyper-V environments
  • Microsoft 365 tenants that depend on email, OneDrive, SharePoint, or Teams content
  • Organizations modernizing aging backup tools (Backup Exec, ShadowProtect, Windows Server Backup)
  • Companies whose cyber-insurance renewal requires immutable backups

Common problems we solve

  • Backups that 'succeed' but contain corrupt or skipped data
  • No offsite copy — or an offsite copy that uses the same credentials as production
  • Microsoft 365 deletions and ransomware events with no independent backup
  • Retention drift — last 14 days fine, anything older missing
  • Restores that have never been tested and take days when finally needed

Why Nickel City Tech Solutions

  • Veeam-focused backup practice — not a generic 'we set up backup' add-on
  • Immutable repository design built into every plan
  • Documented restore testing cadence and DR exercises
  • Local Northern Ontario team for on-site recovery when it matters
  • Predictable pricing for monitoring, licensing, and storage

Frequently asked questions

Do you work with Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365?

Yes. Microsoft does not back up your 365 data the way most businesses assume. We deploy and manage Veeam Backup for Microsoft 365 with immutable cloud retention for Exchange, OneDrive, SharePoint, and Teams.

Can you support our existing Veeam install?

Yes. We'll review the current Veeam environment (jobs, repositories, retention, alerts, restore testing) and take over monitoring, patching, and recovery testing under a managed plan.

Do you handle immutable backups for ransomware protection?

Yes. We design Veeam topologies with immutable repositories (hardened Linux, S3 object lock, or partner cloud) so attackers cannot delete or encrypt your backups even with admin credentials.

How often do you test restores?

Restore testing cadence depends on the plan — typically quarterly for full-VM or file-level restores, with annual disaster-recovery exercises for critical workloads.
