Could you be more specific? I've done a bit of reading on this which suggests that the various Hyper-V 'snapshot' backup solutions (usually VSS based) all need to be installed/managed from the 'parent' machine and not my VPS. In fact Hyper-V seems to have this facility built in?
Are you suggesting I need to purchase software that you'd install on your 'parent' Hyper-V installation? In which case can't you use the facility already included in Hyper-V?

Yes, I do agree with you that the VSS based need to be installed/configured on Main host node, but it will take backup of whole server (all the VM's). Also the third party application, which Sebastian suggested will take backup of the Data, databases, emails which are hosted with in your VM as the backup of the data on a VPS is customers responsibility.

Finally, when a snapshot is taken, would I need to store on offsite storage? (as per Jack's email). If so, how fast is the transfer speed? i.e. how long to recover a 20-30gb installation?

Our NAS/Backup storage devices are connected to 1GBPS ports on which you can get 100MBPS data transfer.
