In 2014, the multi-tenancy functionality was added to the software solution to allow MSPs to offer BaaS, DRaaS and RaaS services.[20]

Subsequent 2014 releases added Flash VM Boot for instant recovery of full VMware vSphere VMs from backups,[21] backup verification[22] and the GFS backup scheme.[22]

In 2016, the product received the update that allowed it to back up, replicate, and recover Amazon EC2 instances.[26] The update also introduced Instant Object Recovery for Microsoft Exchange.[27]

The update released in 2017 introduced the support for Microsoft Hyper-V, MS SQL integration, Automated VM Failover, Automated Self-Backup, Global Search, and Flash VM Boot for Hyper-V VMs.[28]
