What Enterprise Data Solutions does

Enterprise Data Solutions Inc. (EDSI) is a privately held IT services firm headquartered in Middleburg Heights, Ohio (relocated in 2024), founded in 2001 and operating with 11-50 employees. The company provides cloud-based backup, disaster recovery as a service (DRaaS), backup as a service (BaaS), managed IT services, network solutions, IT policy and compliance, and software/hardware resale to clients in healthcare, finance, legal, manufacturing, education, and construction, with a primary geographic focus on Northeast Ohio and the broader Midwest.

EDSI's core technology stack is built on Veeam's backup and recovery platform, complemented by its proprietary DataManager2020 toolkit (Protect, Archive, Migrate, and Analyze modules for Windows, SAM-FS, and Oracle HSM file systems) and a Network Intrusion Detection System (NIDS). The company holds Veeam Gold Service Provider and Veeam Cloud Connect Gold partner status, the highest tiers of Veeam's ecosystem, and delivers flagship offerings including the V//Extreme DRaaS solution. Customers include Cleveland Clinic (multi-petabyte healthcare archive), Harvard University Library (long-term digital preservation), and Infinity Nurse Practitioners (cloud-based rapid office deployment).

Revenue is generated primarily through recurring managed services subscriptions, usage-based cloud backup and DRaaS contracts, and software/hardware resale (Pure Storage, Quest, Veeam, Microsoft 365 backup). Pricing is custom and quote-based for enterprise clients with annual billing, usage-based (storage/memory consumption) for cloud replication, and freemium via a free trial for cloud backup. The go-to-market is consultative direct sales with field engagement for enterprise accounts, supplemented by Calendly-driven intro calls, content marketing, Veeam co-marketing webinars, and regional industry events. EDSI discloses no external funding, no acquisitions, and no parent company, operating as an independent privately held corporation.

Emerging players

• Axcient: Axcient provides cloud-based backup and disaster recovery solutions tailored for MSPs and SMBs. While smaller and more software-focused than EDSI, it competes in the same Veeam-adjacent backup and BCDR space with channel-led delivery.
• Infrascale: Infrascale delivers cloud-based backup and disaster recovery as a service. It is a smaller but direct competitor to EDSI in cloud DRaaS and BaaS, particularly for healthcare and mid-market customers.
