Datto Backup for Microsoft Azure extends data protection beyond native Azure capabilities to deliver complete, end-to-end resilience. By securely backing up Azure workloads outside the Azure environment, it eliminates single-cloud risk and protects against ransomware, credential compromise and data loss. 

With support for Azure VMs and Azure Files (and Azure Blob coming in Q2 2026), organizations can protect their entire Azure footprint with isolated, immutable backups designed for rapid recovery. A unified management experience allows IT teams and MSPs to oversee Azure, SaaS and on-prem data protection from a single platform, simplifying operations and improving efficiency.

In addition to stronger security and faster recovery, Datto Backup for Microsoft Azure helps reduce costs by 30% or more compared to native Azure backup solutions, with transparent pricing and no hidden fees. The result is a more resilient, cost-effective approach to safeguarding critical cloud data.
