Indefinite Backups are Invaluable
Use Cases and Deployment Scope
With Microsoft not guaranteeing data integrity and putting the onus of data back onto the customer, Arcserve SaaS Backup serves as the perfect product to fill the gap. Having such a low entry price point means it’s accessible to 99% of customers and the fact that backed up data sits there indefinitely can prove invaluable to customers; particularly in sectors that require vast retention of data.
Pros
- Easy recovery
- Low cost solution
- Indefinite backups
- Data sovereignty
Cons
- Number of licensed users can be unclear at first glance.
- Items created and deleted in between backup jobs are never backed up.
Return on Investment
- Being so cheap, it’s easy to package and sell as a service.
- Being so convenient, it sometimes can drain internal resource as clients can rely on it too much.
- Great sales/pre-sales team that can assist.
