IronClad Features and Benefits

Extremely Reliable Backup

  • An extremely reliable, monitored, and managed data backup service featuring a 99.9% success rate.
  • A completely turnkey solution – no tapes to rotate, no error messages to worry about, and no annual software support fees.
  • Reduces the risk of data loss by taking a snapshot of each server every 15 minutes -- 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
  • Minimizes the impact of each backup on server/network by focusing on changes at the "1' and 0's" or "block" level versus the entire file.

Amazingly Fast Restorations

  • Minimizes restoration time by use of an onsite IronClad Appliance:
    • Disk-based architecture is much faster than tape systems;
    • Restore at local area network speeds (not Internet speeds).
  • Restore files based upon the date/time/version desired (i.e. If a virus infected a server at 2:45, would you rather restore the 2:30 version that "might" be infected or the 2:15 version that you know you trust?).
  • Ability to restore only the data needed (i.e. Microsoft Exchange users can restore the entire Exchange Server message store, a single user mailbox, or just individual message level).

True Disaster Recovery

  • Satisfies both practical and regulatory oversight needs with a written disaster recovery plan.
  • Recover a failed server in about 20 minutes to reduce downtime and prevent lost productivity and/or dissatisfaction from your customers
  • Avoids expedited freight, overtime, and escalation expenses associated with a server failure by giving you the time and freedom to organize a more efficient recovery process.
  • Should you lose a physical location, a new IronClad Appliance, preloaded with the last offsite daily backup, ships out to your alternate site and is ready to serve as your virtual server farm while you recover.
