Ootbi is now available in a choice of acquisition models

On-site service	Yes	Yes

Why Consumption-Based Subscription?

Pay for what you use, grow as you need

Backup capacity from 17 TB to 7 PB with no upfront payment, simple monthly billing and a 1-year subscription. Gain cost efficiency as you scale: the more you use, the less you pay per TB. (Storage usage is assumed to grow over time; reducing consumption is possible at agreement renewal)

Hardware refreshes included

All technology refreshes, service, support and software updates are included. You don’t pay for appliances, you pay for what you use.

Make billing and management predictable

Get backup improvements faster, with no upfront outlay. Reduce risk of over- or under-sizing using Object First Storage Calculator, free expert support, and experienced partner network.

What's the minimum and maximum capacity in the Ootbi Consumption Model?

The minimum commit is just 17 TB of backup storage, and with multiple Ootbi nodes, you can scale to many petabytes of backup data. Our experts will be happy to advise you.

How are charges structured?

Charges are simple and transparent. Backup data consumption is organised into preset Tiers and Steps. If you go above the threshold for your Step in each month, there’s a modest per-Terabyte charge. If you’re regularly going above the threshold, you can move up a Step or into a higher Tier – which will be more cost effective.

How long do I keep the Ootbi Appliance?

You will keep the Ootbi for as long as your agreement runs, unless it becomes necessary to change it for operational reasons—for example, your data growth is such that a larger appliance is needed, or the appliance reaches the end of its operational life.

Are there other hidden charges?

No! Other than the normal step charges and supplemental charges for extra data consumption, there are no further charges from Object First during your agreement term.

How long does the Consumption agreement run for?

Ootbi Consumption agreements run for a year at a time. They do not auto-renew, though we will work with your Object First partner to ensure continuity of service into the next year towards the end of the agreement term. If you move up a step mid-term, a new agreement will be put in place, running for a further year.
