Online Backup |
Tape
backup takes a long time. |
|
With Back2Go Online
Backup, after the initial back up, only
changes at byte level are backed up,
so if you change one word, only that
word is backed up and not the whole
file, but you can recover the whole
file with the change included. |
| |
Backup Windows are
therefore much shorter than traditional
tape systems. |
 |
| Tapes
can fail. They can fail to backup (20%
of the time) and they can fail to restore
(50% of the time). |
|
With Back2Go Online
Backup, your data is stored redundantly
on high tech storage devices. |
 |
| Managing
a tape-based backup is time-consuming
and prone to human error. |
|
With Back2Go Online
Backup, you select the files or folders
and it automatically backs them up,
day in day out. |
 |
| Moving
the tapes to and from the off-site storage
area is necessary, costly and time-consuming.
|
|
Back2Go
Online Backup automatically stores
your data in a remote, off site location.
Your data is then mirrored to a second
location automatically. |
 |
| The recovery
process is unreliable and time consuming.
You also have to wait for the tapes
to be transported from the off site
storage location. |
|
With Back2Go Online
Backup, you can restore a single file,
multiple files or an entire directory
easily and quickly. Providing you have
the passwords and encryption keys, you
can access, email and restore the files
through the Internet as well from any
location in the World. |
 |
| How many
historical versions of your files do
you have to restore from? Most tape
drive users only have 5, one for each
weekday |
|
Depending on the service chosen Back2Go Online Backup
gives you instant access to up to 7 years of historical data. |
 |
| How do
you know if all your files were actually
backed up properly? |
|
Back2Go Online Backup
will notify you via email of the results
of your backup even if a backup session
does not run properly. You can also
include the logs of the backup in the
email for easy troubleshooting |
