Probax allows you to trial our service for 14 days. You will have access to 10TB of Honeycomb Hot Storage (BaaS), 10TB of Honeycomb Cold Storage (AaaS) and unlimited SaaS Protection for Microsoft Office 365 and Dropbox. Following the end of the 14 day period your account will be suspended.

You will have the option to extend the trial if you need more time.

How does pricing work?

Our pricing model is extremely simple, benefiting our channel partners, and ultimately the end users.

Probax Partners pay a flat monthly fee for a given volume of storage, or a per user rate for SaaS protection. There are no hidden fees or complex billing schedules.

We also supply discounted Veeam licensing.

Do you offer true data pooling?

Yes, we offer data pooling across regions (i.e. Australia and USA). For example, if you purchase 10TB of our Honeycomb Hot Cloud Storage, you can divide this into whatever increments you like and allocate to any number of end users in Australia, regardless of whether they choose to backup to our Perth, Sydney and/or Melbourne data centres.

Is there a minimum term or minimum spend?

How do I upgrade and downgrade cloud storage?

Upgrading is easy, and automatic – Your Probax account will grow to meet your data protection requirements, and the new volume will be reflected in your next monthly invoice.

Downgrading can be done at any time from Probax Hive. Click on 'MSP Overview' and then click 'View Pricing' on the desired storage type you wish to change. Then select the desired storage quantity (must be equal to or higher than current usage).

How do I cancel my account?

If your Probax contract has ended, you may close your account with us.

Within Hive, click on 'MSP Overview' menu, then in the action menu click on 'Close Account' and confirm.

Please note: Probax requires 30-days notice to finalise your account billing.

Can payment be made by bank transfer?

Payment by bank transfer is only available to Probax Platinum and Black partners.

Where are your data centres?

We have infrastructure in Perth, Melbourne, Sydney, New Jersey and Quebec.

Probax Office 365 Backup & Archive uses AWS data centres in Sydney, North Virginia and Canada.

Data will always be stored only where you choose it to be stored.

How much bandwidth is required?

A standard ADSL link can transfer 3.5GB of data during a 12 hour backup window. After compression and deduplication, a full 3.5GB of data would represent a very large amount of new/changed data; Far more than an average small business would ever generate in a single day. If your client has more bandwidth available to them then backups will be faster and will allow for more data to be transferred within their backup window.

Resellers can also seed initial backups via external hard drive. This reduces backup lag time and leaves clients internet links operational during work hours.

Large resellers and enterprise clients have the option to purchase private links purely for backup purposes. This is useful when daily changes are so large they would impact the network speed for employees during business hours, and security when is a primary concern.

Do you have any technical guides?

Yes! We provide a comprehensive knowledge base and a range of webinars useful for getting to know our platform and services.
