Earlier this year our technical team became fully certified as Acronis Partners and I would like to share some of the benefits of this powerful backup solution for your business.
The point of the Acronis software is to minimise the recovery time and disruption if the server ever has to be fully recovered. If there was no Acronis backup image and the server completely failed, we would need to rebuild and configure the server from scratch which could take as long as 1 or 2 days. This would involve reinstalling the operating system, installing all the applications, setting up all the email, printers, users and much more.
Just imagine how your business would cope without its systems and data for a day.
Acronis provides a local backup image, this means that the backup is done from the server onto an external hard disk connected directly to the server, this external hard disk can remain connected. The advantage of having this type of backup alongside your existing backup is the recovery time, if the server was to completely fail it can be recovered within minutes from the backup image. This image is a snapshot of the entire server including the operating system, all the applications and most importantly all of the settings.
Acronis works alongside Alchemist Vault to provide you with the best possible Back-Up and Disaster Recovery plan for your business.
