Multi-Site Data Protection Software Helps Businesses Backup Multiple Locations with Ease
NETGEAR, Inc. today announced “ReadyNAS Replicate,” a software application that simplifies the replication of that data to another ReadyNAS whether the two systems are on the same LAN or across the globe.
Through a single interface, ReadyNAS Replicate enables customers to schedule multi-site backup jobs and to restore files across locations, slashing management time and improving investment return.
IT departments can eliminate the complex scripting and hours of effort required by homemade solutions and automatic best practices, such as integrated snapshot management and embedded VPN connections, improve reliability over typical do-it-yourself arrangements. A single management console simplifies backup and restore between company headquarters and even the smallest remote office. Resellers can use ReadyNAS Replicate to deliver managed backup and recovery services to individual end user locations.
In a Market Insight report from October 2010, Gartner analyst Jim Browning states, “One of the primary actions planned through the first half of 2011 by a number of midsize businesses is to implement new or expanded geographically dispersed backup sites for disaster recovery purposes.”
ReadyNAS Replicate is available immediately from any NETGEAR PowerShift Partner and requires a standalone transferable license per desktop or rack-mount system. For the desktop ReadyNAS 2-, 4- and 6-bay Pro and Ultra families, the MSRP is $199. For current rack-mount ReadyNAS products the MSRP is $399.
