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.
Likelihood to Recommend
We have various customers within the insurance and law sectors that frequently have to refer back to legacy emails and documents and having the luxury of indefinite backups mean it’s incredibly convenient to recover these files in the event local copies have been deleted. Where it sometimes falls down is when customers have wanted to recover emails that have allegedly been sent/received by disgruntled employees, but were sent, read and deleted in between backup jobs.
