What does 'co-managed' mean in the context of Cove DRaaS?

Co-managed means N-able manages and secures the disaster recovery infrastructure itself, while you stay in control of which workloads are protected, how they're configured, and when recovery is initiated. You get the benefits of managed infrastructure without sacrificing control over your recovery decisions.

How does Cove DRaaS pricing work?

Cove DRaaS uses a flat, per-device pricing model tied to protected workloads instead of unpredictable usage-based billing. This makes budgeting simpler for IT teams and easier for MSPs to package and resell as a premium service with clear margins.

TL;DR

N-able Cove DRaaS eliminates the need to build or maintain disaster recovery infrastructure by providing cloud-native, co-managed DR where N-able handles the infrastructure while customers control workload protection and recovery.
The service uses flat per-device pricing instead of unpredictable usage-based billing, making it easier for MSPs to resell and IT teams to budget for disaster recovery services.
Automated recovery testing verifies that protected workloads are recoverable before disasters occur, ensuring DR plans actually work without manual effort or disruptive test events.

Summary

N-able introduces Cove Disaster Recovery as a Service (DRaaS), a cloud-native solution designed to eliminate the complexity and unpredictability of traditional disaster recovery infrastructure. The service addresses common pain points including the need to build and maintain secondary data centers, manage specialized DR expertise, and navigate unpredictable cloud costs. Cove DRaaS operates on a co-managed model where N-able handles the underlying infrastructure while customers retain control over workload protection, configuration, and recovery initiation. The solution features flat per-device pricing for predictable budgeting, automated recovery testing to verify recoverability before disasters occur, and the ability to spin up protected workloads as virtual servers in the N-able cloud. This approach transforms disaster recovery from an infrastructure project into a business outcome, making it simpler for IT teams to implement and easier for MSPs to package and resell as a premium service with clear margins.
