Unitrends Radically Simplifies Data Recovery From The Cloud – Speeding Business Back To Work

Expanded cloud management capabilities give IT professionals greater operational control to intuitively access and retrieve cloud-based backups and archives achieving reduced recovery times.

Unitrends, a leader in enterprise-level cloud-empowered business continuity solutions, today announced expansion of their cloud management capabilities to remove the operational boundary between on-premise data and that stored in the cloud.  A recent survey conducted by Unitrends of 900 enterprises revealed that half of the respondents are concerned about their ability to quickly retrieve content from their backups at the moment they need it.  Unitrends is addressing this by enabling users to recover individual files and complete systems from the cloud in a powerful, rapid and securely encrypted manner.

Accessed through the Unitrends Connected Continuity Platform™, these innovative cloud search and retrieve functions apply to a broad range of backup types from virtual and physical servers to individual files.  The user is able to view these elements as easily as if they were stored on premise and is able to retrieve them in fewer steps than competitive options, securely encrypted and optimized for WAN transport resulting in greatly reduced recovery times. There are also financial benefits for users.  Unlike common cloud pricing models, Unitrends does not assess data access or network fees.  Customers have the ability to retrieve data from the cloud when they need it as often as needed and at no additional charge.

Unitrends comprehensive cloud-empowered business continuity solutions include flexible storage options, cloud seeding, disaster recovery services and automated recovery testing.  Key elements provide:
•    The industry’s broadest range of cloud options through integration with market leading Hyperscale clouds as well as Unitrends Cloud
•    Infinite retention in Unitrends Forever Cloud™  with an unrivaled pricing model
•    Comprehensive disaster recovery services that include a guaranteed 1 hour SLA for recovery of critical systems

“Every day Unitrends executes on its mission to ensure our customers can protect their data and ideas and keep their business running no matter what.” said Dave LeClair, Vice President of Product Marketing at Unitrends.  “Delivering additional cloud management capabilities empowers IT professionals to manage their growing data while simultaneously gaining efficiency and flexibility. This addition ensures that the growing number of enterprises who rely on cloud for archival and recovery can depend on Unitrends to meet their needs now and in the future.”

The newest cloud capabilities will be available this Summer.  Unitrends channel partners are already being prepared to support beta tests and future customers.
