What is Axcient x360Recover?

Axcient x360Recover (formerly BRC) can not only recover a single server or desktop, but can automate the recovery of an entire customer site through its Virtual Office and automated Runbook features. In a disaster event, authorized users can log into the web application or Remote Management Console and create a virtual private cloud called a Virtual Office. The Virtual Office ensures security, privacy and reliability for every organization needing to run one or more failover virtual machines in the Axcient Cloud. The Virtual Office is an on-demand replica in the Axcient Cloud of the protected on-premises environment. There are several options for accessing VMs running in a Virtual Office, including remote desktop and VPN. A Virtual Office can be stood up either manually or by utilizing Axcient’s built-in automation and orchestration features in the web Remote Management Console.
