It’s important to address common challenges your business may face when transitioning to a model where you’re “always on” as opposed to being available to customers only during office hours. When comparing cloud services, you’ll want to find a model that offers you flexibility and consistency.
By allowing your clients, customers and partners to access data and aid in recovery and backup, you’ll be able to
finish projects more quickly and reduce wait time to as little as 15 minutes. All this is completed with the new Veeam Availability Suite, which provides high-speed recovery, data loss avoidance, verified protection, leveraged data and complete visibility. Check the comparison of cloud services between this new technology and legacy backup solutions such as Symantec Backup Exec 15.
