Ideal Customer

  • Databarracks' sweet spot is mid-market to enterprise organisations, typically with 250 to 5,000 employees, that have virtualised or hybrid IT environments but lack the internal resources to manage 24/7 disaster recovery and business continuity in-house.
  • They are best suited to organisations in highly regulated industries — particularly legal, financial services, healthcare, and public sector — where a prolonged outage would result in significant financial, reputational, or regulatory consequences.

Key Differentiators

  • Databarracks positions itself as the UK's specialist in technology and business resilience, distinguishing itself from both low-cost commodity providers and large generalist systems integrators through its singular focus on continuity, security, and managed recovery.
  • A notable physical differentiator is its use of ex-military nuclear bunkers (30 metres underground) for data hosting, offering some of the most physically secure infrastructure available to commercial customers.

Industries Served

  • Databarracks serves a diverse range of sectors with particularly strong presence in legal, financial services, healthcare (including NHS), and the public sector — industries where data integrity and regulatory compliance are non-negotiable.
  • They also serve manufacturing, professional services, and other commercial enterprises.

Service Coverage

  • Databarracks is headquartered in London, England, United Kingdom, and operates primarily as a UK-focused managed services provider.
  • Their infrastructure is anchored in UK-based data centres, including a former Cold War ex-military nuclear bunker (known as 'The Bunker') located 30 metres underground in Sandwich, Kent, and they hold data sovereignty as a core value proposition for UK-regulated clients.

Partnerships

  • Databarracks has a deep and strategic partnership with Commvault, holding the status of the UK's largest Commvault Managed Service Partner (MSP), and was named Commvault's EMEA MSP Partner of the Year at the Commvault Fearless Awards 2025.
  • Their acquisition of COOLSPIRiT — previously the UK's largest Commvault Solution Provider Partner — further cemented this relationship.

Company Size & Ownership

  • Databarracks was founded in 2003 by Peter Groucutt, Oliver Mather, and Tom Roberts, and is estimated to have between 51 and 200 employees (approximately 150 as of late 2025 across multiple continents per LeadIQ).
  • Estimated annual revenue is in the range of $5–10 million USD.

Compliance & Certifications

  • Databarracks holds ISO 27001 certification for Information Security and ISO 22301 certification for Business Continuity Management, the latter achieved in January 2024 after a comprehensive external audit.
  • They are also certified by the Cloud Industry Forum and are listed on the UK Government G-Cloud framework.
