Choosing the right backup
for your school

Different backup platforms fit different school environments. Zconnect helps compare options for Google Workspace, Microsoft 365, user data, and retention needs, then recommend a practical fit with cost-efficient reseller pricing.

Education pricing, compared across platforms

The backup vendors run their own education programs, and the terms are not the same. We compare what each one offers a school your size, then confirm your exact pricing in writing before you commit.

Staff accounts
Every platform prices education below its business rate. How far below varies, so we quote the best fit for your school.
Student accountsOften included
Free on some platforms and steeply reduced on others, depending on your staff-to-student ratio. Confirmed in writing.

An advisor, not a vendor

We work with leading backup platforms and recommend by fit, not commission, with engineer-led setup and a live demo before you commit.

Independent, not a single-vendor reseller

We compare the leading Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace backup platforms and recommend the one that fits your school, not whoever pays the most commission.

Engineer-led setup

Configured by people who run this for a living, with a live demo so you see a real restore before you decide. Our team's experience spans small schools to 10,000-user environments.

Sized for how schools run

Student turnover, shared devices, term cycles, and tight budgets are the starting point, not an afterthought.

No pressure, no lock-in

Documented setup and one local point of contact, so your team always keeps the knowledge and the keys.

Recovering lost data is the school's responsibility.

Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace keep the lights on, but restoring data that was deleted, ransomed, or aged out is on you. Schools carry extra exposure:

High student turnover and shared devices across classrooms and labs

Accidental deletions at scale, a wiped account or shared folder

Ransomware or a compromised account encrypting school data

Records-retention and student-privacy obligations the platform won't meet for you

What we protect

Staff and student accounts across Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace, with retention and tested, point-in-time recovery.

Mailboxes

Exchange Online and Gmail, messages, folders, and attachments, recoverable after a deletion or an attack.

Files & drives

OneDrive and Google Drive, staff and student files with version history and fast recovery.

SharePoint & Shared Drives

Department sites, shared documents, and collaboration data across the school.

Teams & Classroom

Conversations, channel files, and classroom data, recoverable when you need them.
