Unmatched Exchange, SQL, and SharePoint functionality

e-fort offers integrated support for advanced Exchange and SQL cluster configurations, shorter SQL backup windows with out the need for compression, as well as advanced SharePoint data protection options.

Zero data loss restores for applications

e-fort enables lossless recovery of Exchange, SQL, and SharePoint servers without the need for constant replication or synchronization by seamlessly integrating a point in time database restore with the existing application logs.

Host based Virtual Server backups

e-fort includes support for host based protection of Windows Virtual Server guests. Using a single host based DPM agent to provide consistent protection of any and all guests residing on a host. e-fort can protect any operating system or application via this mechanism as long as they are running on a Windows host server.

Recover files in minutes instead of hours

A typical file recovery from tape takes hours and can be costly. The typical medium data center may have 10 to 20 or more recoveries per month. e-fort enables the same recoveries in minutes, saving money for the business and time for IT administrators. Additionally, faster recovery keeps information workers productive because they spend less downtime waiting for their files to be recovered.

Eliminate the backup window of your production servers

Massive growth in storage capabilities has increased the time needed to back up file servers. At the same time, businesses face the requirement for 24×7 uptime and the fact that there is no good time to perform a backup. Because DPM moves only the byte-level changes of the file servers it protects, it effectively eliminates the downtime required to back up your file servers. Customers never have to plan for such "backup windows" again.

Remove tapes from branch offices and centralize backups at the data center

Today, the primary way to protect remote servers is for branch office staff to back up data to expensive removable media, such as data tape cartridges, and then manually transport the media to an offsite storage facility. Tape restores within this configuration can be expensive and slow. DPM deploys agents on the remote file servers to send the data back to the central data center where it can be more securely protected.
