Your choice of a virtual machine (VM) backup methodology will have a significant effect on how much time and money you spend to protect your digital assets. That’s why we’ve enhanced Acronis Backup & Recovery Advanced Server Virtual Edition substantially to deliver the most cost-effective and feature-rich protection available for all of your Windows and Linux digital resources.
Acronis Saves Time and Money
- Protects all Windows and Linux machines, in both their physical and virtual forms
Acronis supports the four major commercially available virtualization platforms (VMware, Microsoft, Citrix and Parallels) and allows you to migrate in mere moments from P2V, V2V and V2P. Because we’re fully integrated with VMware, familiar VMware VCB functions like incremental backups, differential backups and data deduplication are retained, along with a VMware-style management user interface.
- Reduces per-virtual machine protection costs
Our agent-less backup and single pricing model (both are available for VMware and Microsoft VM platforms) allows you to protect as many VMs on a single host as will comfortably fit for one low price (see graphic).
- Cuts virtualization storage costs down to size
We offer data deduplication capability that combines outstanding functionality and unequalled cost value to help both large and small companies contain ballooning storage costs that accompany most virtualization efforts.
- Restores failed servers instantly with Acronis Instant Restore
When either a physical or virtual machine fails, there’s no wait for a recovery. Acronis Instant Restore can restore any Windows or Linux server to a virtual server in no more time than it takes an administrator to complete a mouse click. You no longer have to wait hours, or even minutes to complete a recovery, giving you the time you need to repair or replace a failed server.
- Protect all your machines with less effort
Whether you’re responsible for a relatively small number of virtual machines or thousands, Acronis Backup & Recovery Advanced Server Virtual Edition handles them all with a:
- truly user-friendly interface;
- enterprise-class automated management tools like setting group policies;
- highly ergonomic dashboard monitoring screen that allows you to determine the health of as many as 3000 locally and remotely managed machines at a glance;
- easy-to-use advanced disaster recovery tools that even a novice can recover a failed server in seconds.
