Magnus Box | Backup Built by an MSP, for MSPs

Q: How painful is migration?

It is not a rip-and-replace weekend. We map your current setup, brand your console, and move clients over one at a time. Your old backups keep running until the new ones are verified, so there is no gap in protection and no downtime. We test real restores before you cut over.

Q: Will you sell to my clients?

No. We are channel-only. We sell through you and never to your clients. Your accounts, your brand, and your relationships stay yours. We have no interest in competing with you.

Q: What happens if a client gets ransomware?

We keep immutable backups an attacker cannot change or delete, encrypted with AES-256 and stored off-site away from the client network. You restore from a clean recovery point instead of paying a ransom.

From the founder

I've been where you are.

I've watched a backup report "success" for months, then fail the one time a client actually needed it.

I've been on the phone at 3 AM restoring a server while a business owner waited and worried.

I've fought clunky consoles, surprise storage bills, and support tickets that sat for days with no answer.

Magnus Box is the backup I built so I'd never have to live through that again. It's the same platform my own shop runs on. I'm not a backup company that learned about MSPs. I'm an MSP who built a backup company.

● Why this exists

"I was tired of fighting backup software. So I stopped fighting it and built something that just works."

Talk to me directly. Most vendors hide the founder. I'll get on a call.

Why MSPs choose us

The easiest backup company you'll work with.

Not because of a feature list. Because of who built it, how it's priced, and who picks up when you call.

Built by an MSP owner

I've run a shop since 2010. Every feature here fixed a problem I actually had, not one a roadmap meeting dreamed up.

Channel-only, always

I sell through you, never to your clients. Your accounts stay yours. I'm not building a back door to compete with you.

Transparent pricing

Flat per-device, pooled storage, no per-GB roulette. The prices are public, so you always know your cost and your margin.

Fast restores

When a client is down, you get them back fast: file, folder, mailbox, or full bare-metal. That's the part that actually matters.

Honest support

Real people who've run an MSP, same day, 9am to 9pm EST. We tell you what's happening and what we're fixing, no runaround.

Direct access to the founder

Most vendors hide the founder. The person who built the platform is the person you can get on a call. That's me.

From the MSPs we serve

Techs who switched, and stayed.

"The support and the consistency of functionality from the product is favored. The pricing to what is offered is more than fair."

A recovery story · from Mike

"Friday, 4:50 PM. A client's file server was encrypted, every share locked, a ransom note sitting on the desktop. Years ago that call meant a ruined weekend and a terrified business owner. This time I opened the console, pulled the last clean image from the night before, and started the restore. By Saturday afternoon they were back up on clean machines. No ransom paid. Nothing lost. The owner never knew how close it was. That's the kind of Friday Magnus Box is built for."

Mike Slodowski · Founder, Magnus Box

Less work. Less stress.

What Magnus Box takes off your plate.

You didn't get into this business to babysit backup jobs. Here's what changes the week you switch.

No more daily check-ins

Daily checks done for you, clear reports, and alerts only when something actually needs you. You stop logging in just to confirm jobs ran.

Fewer failed backups

Backups that finish, and tell you the truth when they don't. No silent failures you only discover when a client is down and needs a restore.

Faster restores when it counts

File, folder, mailbox, or full bare-metal. When a client is down, you get them back fast, and you look like the hero instead of the excuse.

Predictable operations

Flat per-device pricing and pooled storage mean no surprise bills. You can quote a client and know your margin before you say yes.

One console, every workload

Servers, workstations, Microsoft 365, VMware, Hyper-V, disk image. One place to manage it all instead of juggling five vendor portals.

A vendor that answers

Real people who've run an MSP, on the phone the same day. Sometimes it's the founder. Support isn't a ticket queue here, it's the whole point.

The actual product

This is the console you'll live in.

No staged mockups. This is the real Magnus Box, the same platform we run our own clients on.

Protected items · per client

Protected items for a client showing files, disk image and Microsoft 365 backups with last successful job times

Physical and virtual servers, files and full bare-metal recovery.

Workstation Backup

Windows, macOS & Linux with schedules, retention & exclusions.

Microsoft 365

Mail, OneDrive, SharePoint & Teams, domain or per-user.

Managed Backup

We watch the jobs and chase the failures so your techs don't.

Managed Backup

Let us watch the backups so your techs don't have to.

Short-staffed? Hand us the monitoring. Our team watches your backup jobs, chases the failures, re-runs what we can, and only escalates the things that actually need you.

Your engineers get their time back. And to be clear: we don't touch your client relationship. You still own the account, the billing, and the brand. We just take the babysitting off your plate.

Migration

Switch on your terms, not on a weekend.

Two ways to move to Magnus Box: run it yourself with our deploy tools, or hand it to us. Either way, your old backups keep running until the new ones are proven, so there's no gap and no risky cutover.

Hands-on

Do it yourself

You want control. Push the agent to your whole fleet with our RMM script, brand the console, and bring clients over at your pace. Most shops are protecting their first clients the same afternoon.

When it goes wrong

The restore works, even after ransomware.

When a client gets hit, your backup is the whole ballgame. Magnus Box keeps copies an attacker can't change or delete, so you always have a clean point to recover from instead of a ransom note.

✓

Immutable backups

Recovery points can't be altered or wiped, even by a compromised account.

✓

AES-256, in transit and at rest

Client data is encrypted the whole way and while it's stored.

✓

Off-site, off the client's network

An attacker on the LAN can't reach or delete the cloud copy.

How storage works

Storage works like a family phone plan. All your clients share one pool, so a busy server borrows headroom from quiet laptops. You buy total capacity for your business, not a guess for every machine, and you'll never get a surprise per-GB bill. Watch your pool, add capacity in clear blocks when you grow.

Straight answers

The questions every MSP asks us.

How does the pooled storage work?

All your clients share one storage pool, like a family phone plan for data. A busy server borrows headroom from quiet laptops, so you buy total capacity for your business instead of guessing per machine. You watch your pool and add capacity in clear blocks when you grow. No surprise per-GB bills.

What does it cost?

MSP wholesale starts at $7 per workstation and $17 per server, per month, for files-and-folders backup with shared-pool storage. Everything else (disk image, Microsoft 365, VMware, Hyper-V, Proxmox and Managed Backup) is a simple per-unit add-on, so you only pay for what each client needs. A $45/month partner account includes white-label, support, and your first 3 licenses free. You set your own client pricing and keep the margin.

Will you sell to my clients?

No. We're channel-only. We sell through you and never to your clients. Your accounts, your brand, and your relationships stay yours. We have no interest in competing with you.
