Comet Backup Lands at MSP Global 2026: What to Expect

A live demo against a real server. A booth built like mission control. A €380 LEGO® set on the line.

This October, Comet Backup is landing at MSP Global with more than a booth number. Here’s the short version: book a meeting with the team at Booth D05 and walk away with 90 days of Comet Backup free. Keep reading for why that meeting’s worth your time.

Why Show Up This Year

MSP Global is where backup strategy, compliance headaches, and vendor relationships all get discussed in the same room, sometimes in the same breath. This year, two questions keep coming up in conversations: what AI tooling actually means for backup infrastructure, and how European regulation is rewriting the rules on where your data lives. Comet built both its sessions around exactly those two questions.

Two Sessions Worth Clearing Your Schedule For

“Your Backup Server Can Talk Now: MCP Demystified Live”
Oct 21, 14:30–14:50, Acronis Accelerate Arena. Presented live by our own Adam Wien, WebPros’ Director of Product Management.

Everyone’s heard “MCP” thrown around. Here’s the one-sentence version: it’s a standard plug that lets an AI assistant use your existing tools. Nothing retrained, nothing uploaded.

Adam proves it live against a real Comet Backup server: triaging overnight failures in plain English, finding every device that missed a backup without writing a query, drafting a client-ready health report in minutes. Walk out knowing exactly what MCP is, what it isn’t, and how to test it without betting your infrastructure on a buzzword.

European Digital Sovereignty: Navigating DORA, NIS2, Cloud Exit Strategies, and Real-World Implementation for MSPs
Oct 22, 10:50–11:20, Acronis Accelerate Arena. Panel featuring two of our own: Josh Flores, Comet Backup General Manager, and Alexander Pantos, Comet Backup EMEA Sales Lead.

Regulation moves fast; your processes probably don’t. DORA and NIS2 stopped being theoretical the moment clients started asking for answers. This panel gives you some: where implementation actually stands, what sovereign cloud and data residency look like in practice, what a real cloud exit takes, and how to turn all of it into revenue instead of just cost.

Your Mission Briefing

Comet’s booth this year runs on a Mission Control theme, and it’s built around a mission, not a static display. Here’s your briefing, step by step:

1. Check your room. There’s a little something waiting for you, plus a card showing your journey with Comet x MSPG.
2. Scan the QR code on that card and take the quick survey for a chance at winning a collectible LEGO® Star Trek™ set worth €380.
3. Find The Cube. Snap your photo moment.
4. Post it and head to Booth D05 to show us, redeem a little something extra, and swing the Power Hammer for a shot at other prizes.
5. That’s it. That’s the mission. Booth D05, Oct 21–22.

While you’re there, grab the stickers. An internal design challenge produced two winners: “Destination: Growth,” which marks Comet’s trip to MSP Global, and “Back The #%@! Up,” which is the sticker version of noise-canceling headphones. Both are on the table at D05.

Book the Meeting

The offer, again, because it’s worth it: book a meeting at Booth D05, get 90 days of Comet Backup free. No slide deck required, no follow-up call to schedule after the fact. Whether you’re weighing a vendor switch, building a compliance-ready backup strategy, or just want fifteen honest minutes with someone who knows the product, this is the fastest way to get it.

Why Comet Backup

Most vendors at a show like this are selling “trust us.” We’d rather skip that step. Our sessions are based on real customer questions (MSPs!). The booth is built to get you having fun, not just handing you a flyer. And the meetings are real conversations.

That’s the same thing we mean when we call Comet the mission control for data protection: the tool you reach for when something breaks at 2am, not the tool that just looks good in a deck. MSP Global is one of the few rooms where that claim gets tested in front of people who’ll ask hard questions and expect real answers.
