Nordurals decision to select the SecurStore Remote Backup Service highlights the strength and flexibility of managed services.
Remote backup (sometimes also referred to as online backup) is a service that provides users with an online system for backing up and storing computer files. Remote backup service providers are companies that provide a software program and space on a server that their clients data is stored on. The software program will run on a client’s computer and (typically) once a day; compress, encrypt and then send the clients data to the remote backup service providers servers to be stored
With SecurStore, Nordural had the assurance that all their requirements would be met – from a fast critical restore, to remote backup at multiple locations, to a simple and effective interface for the
IT people at Nordural.
We chose the SecurStore Remote Backup Service because it gives us all round backup and recovery services for our needs, with 24×7x365 support said Emil Hilmarsson, IT Manager Nordural. SecurStore also provided Nordural with the option of assigning which data is critical; and which is important data by using Long Term Storage with the use of Backup Lifecycle Management system that manages data during all backing up and archiving processes.
Backup Lifecycle Management differentiates data into varying levels of protected data: current critical data, which is stored on-line for fast recovery; and archivable data that may be needed at a later time but is not likely to be accessed in the near future.
Alexander Eirнksson, President of SecurStore, confirmed, The agentless architecture of SecurStore Remote Backup Service allows us to implement the service with minimal interference to Nordurals existing computer systems. Moreover, because the service is pivoted around providing backup and recovery for geographically dispersed locations, it perfectly compliments Nordurals multi-site locations, remote or otherwise. This provisioning enables Nordural to remotely back up laptops even when workers are away.
At each customer site, a single client discovers all servers, desktops and laptops connected to the local network, and automates the backup of all local data assets.
