Acronis®True Image
Small Business Edition
Acronis®True Imae for Microsoft Windows Small Business Server
For many years reliable disaster recovery was a luxury only the largest companies could
afford. The cost reduction of hardware and disk space now allows any company to take
advantage of this necessary technology.
Acronis True Image for Microsoft SBS is designed to provide all of the capabilities
offered to large enterprises, but purpose-built to meet the needs of small business. It’s
a backup and restore solution for companies with fewer than 100 employees.
Whether you’re a three person accounting firm or a 100 person manufacturing plant,
the requirement to recover from a server or workstation disaster is the same: protect
against data and system loss. If asked, employees would list their computer as the
most needed accessory in the office. As the one responsible for making sure business
systems are available, it is critical to remember it’s not how long it takes to backup, but
how long it takes to recover, that matters.
For example, as Gartner Inc., a leading market research and consulting firm estimated,
two out of five companies that experience a disaster will go out of business within five
years as a result of the event.
If a server goes down, for even an hour, it can bring your company to a screeching halt.
With its emphasis on recovery, Acronis True Image for Microsoft SBS will allow anyone
in the company to initiate a recovery with minimum knowledge of the system.
Acronis True Image for Microsoft SBS is a complete backup/restore and disaster
recovery solution that is based on the award winning Acronis True Image product line.
Combined with Microsoft’s Small Business Server, it is designed to provide all of the
power of a robust disaster recovery solution in an affordable package. We’ve even
included the ability to restore to dissimilar hardware.
With critical features like full, incremental and differential backup, this powerful
product will take a complete server or workstation disk image including operating
system, application, settings, and data files. It has a wizard driven interface that allows
non-IT staff to perform a backup and system recovery with little or no training.
And should you need to recover your archived image to a different server platform,
using Acronis Universal Restore makes it easy to be running again in minutes, not
hours or days.
