Without email, companies cannot function; period! The loss of email for
an extended period of time can be disastrous. The smaller the company,
the bigger the disaster, due to limited IT resources.
In fact, the US Bureau of Labor Statistics claims that 93% of all companies that
experience “significant data loss” are out of business within five years.
The mailbox and public folder store data inyour Exchange databases and transaction
log files are the most important data to protect as part of your email disaster recovery
plan. To secure them you can create an image of the entire disk contents.
However, restoring requires bringing back the entire image. If you only want to
backup and restore the Exchange database contents, using a purpose–built
solution is best. This is especially true if you need the capability to recover to the
mailbox or message level.
As critical to business as email is, your business must be able to complete a
recovery of the Microsoft Exchange server in minutes, not hours or days. To achieve
this, Acronis®, the leader in disaster recovery software, developed Acronis®
Recovery™ for Microsoft Exchange. Using a flexible, intuitive interface, Exchange
Administrators can backup the mail database at the brick or database level,
assuring users have availability to email with virtually no loss of productivity.
With one-step automated backup, you can rest assure that all of your organization’s
critical communications are preserved. When disaster strikes, Acronis Recovery for
Microsoft Exchange will enable you to retrieve specific emails, shared folders, or
entire mailboxes for specific users.
Acronis Recovery for Microsoft Exchange is an excellent complement to the
award-winning Acronis True Image suite of disaster recovery and system migration
products, using patented disk-imaging technology. Together, they deliver
comprehensive server and workstation disaster recovery and full Microsoft
Exchange database protection — a winning disaster recovery plan combination.
