Overview
11:11 Systems is a privately held managed infrastructure and disaster recovery specialist headquartered in Fairfield, New Jersey. The current entity was assembled in 2022 through the simultaneous acquisitions of iland (multi-cloud disaster recovery), Green Cloud Defense (channel-led cloud services), and the recovery services and managed services businesses of Sungard Availability Services. The combination created one of the largest pure-play disaster recovery providers in the United States, with approximately 1,200 employees, 66 data centres globally, and reported revenue of approximately US$231 million at the time of the Sungard transaction. Revenue is not currently public; the company is backed by Tiger Infrastructure Partners and other private investors.
The firm's portfolio centres on Disaster Recovery as a Service (DRaaS), backup as a service, business continuity advisory, and managed cloud hosting on VMware and major hyperscaler platforms. 11:11 maintains certified replication paths to AWS, Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud, and operates a global Veeam-based platform alongside the legacy iland Zerto-based DRaaS service. Following the Sungard transaction, the firm absorbed a large book of legacy mainframe and AS/400 recovery contracts that remain a meaningful — and shrinking — revenue contribution.
Buyers typically engage 11:11 Systems when DRaaS, business continuity, or managed cloud hosting need to be combined under a single contract, particularly in regulated US industries. The firm is a strong fit for mid-market and lower large enterprise buyers (US$500M to US$5B revenue). Very large global enterprises with multi-region resilience requirements often pair 11:11 with hyperscaler-native solutions or a Tier 1 systems integrator for governance.

Strengths
- One of the largest pure-play DRaaS providers in the US — 66 data centres and substantial replication capacity
- Multi-platform DRaaS — both Veeam and Zerto delivery options, plus replication to AWS, Azure, and GCP
- Strong legacy systems coverage including AS/400, IBM Power, and mainframe recovery inherited from Sungard
- Single contract for DR, backup, managed hosting, and security simplifies procurement
- Strong references in mid-market financial services, healthcare, and US state and local government
- Dedicated 24/7 recovery operations centre with documented invocation testing
Limitations
- Post-acquisition integration risk — three separate companies merged in 2022 and some operational silos remain visible
- Legacy Sungard contracts include older infrastructure that is being slowly retired; buyers should validate target platform commitments
- International footprint is thinner than US — APAC and EMEA delivery is supported but with smaller bench depth
- Pricing can rise materially at renewal as data volumes grow; buyers should negotiate caps and exit terms upfront
- Less competitive than hyperscaler-native DR (AWS Elastic Disaster Recovery, Azure Site Recovery) on pure cloud-native estates
