NinjaOne, the automated endpoint management platform, is on track to acquire Dropsuite, a leader in cloud data backup, archiving, and recovery solutions for a total transaction value of approximately $252 million.
The acquisition is expected to close in the first half of 2025, subject to approval by Dropsuite’s shareholders, court approval, Australia’s Foreign Investment Review Board (FIRB) approval, and other customary closing conditions.
“Dropsuite will help our customers be more successful by extending data protection from the endpoint to SaaS applications, automating and simplifying backup, and filling critical data protection gaps,” said Sal Sferlazza, CEO and co-founder at NinjaOne. “We are watching the concept of an ‘endpoint’ evolve from a device to a user in real time. The growth of SaaS applications, BYOD, and the move to remote and hybrid work have transformed customer expectations for endpoint management platforms. Organizations must protect and manage not only the personal and professional devices used by customers and employees but also the applications they use.”
According to the companies, the NinjaOne automated endpoint management platform, combined with Dropsuite’s data protection suite, will help IT and MSP organizations safeguard against the impact of catastrophic events such as ransomware attacks and common day-to-day IT nuisances such as accidental deletion and data archiving for legal and compliance through:
- Extended Data Protection: Secure both SaaS application and physical device data against accidental loss as well as internal and external malicious actors.
- Automated Setup and Recovery: Deliver business continuity through an easy-to-deploy, fully automated suite that restores files, emails, calendars, and Entra ID with just a few clicks.
- Native Multitenancy: Extend data protection through an architecture built to natively work as well in complex multi-tenant IT and MSP environments as it does for a single organization.
- Enhanced Discovery: Give users and admins the ability to comb through historical data assets via an intuitive user interface—reducing the labor and technical effort needed to uncover critical data.
“By joining NinjaOne, Dropsuite will be able to help provide customers with the tools needed to backup and protect endpoints and the most mission-critical SaaS applications from a single platform. We believe this will contribute to the continued success of our customers and our distribution partners,” said Charif El-Ansari, CEO at Dropsuite. “We are thrilled to be joining NinjaOne and look forward to working more closely upon close.”
