Advanced capabilities your business needs:
toachieve any RPO/RTO without‑of‑the‑box capabilities like CDP, replication, storage snapshot, andinstant recovery.
Basic backup: Backup Exec does not offer CDP or snapshot orchestration and lacks instant restore capabilities for most workloads, struggling to hit lower RPO/RTO targets.
Beyond Backup
Fully manage thelifecycle ofyour backups
withrecoverability verification, ransomware scanning, automated repository tiering andgo beyond backup recovery utilizing data labs.
No ability toperform sophisticated operations onbackups (i.e. mostbasic recoverability verification, no ransomware scanning) ortoreuse backups forbusiness purposes (no on‑demand sandbox).
Cross Platform Recovery

toadissimilar platform inthecase ofadisaster, minimizing downtime when theoriginal platform is not available.
