Product Description

Symantec Backup Exec 12 for Windows Servers is the gold standard in Windows data protection delivering certified disk-to disk-to-tape backup and fast, efficient recovery. With patent-pending Granular Recovery Technology and continuous data protection for critical Microsoft applications, business data is always protected and easily restored.

With the majority of business-critical information residing outside the data center or off corporate servers, protection for desktops and laptops is a must. The Desktop and Laptop Option delivers continuous data protection to desktops and laptops whether in the office or on the road. Not only improving data protection and efficiency, this option enables users to restore their own files and maintains synchronization between multiple desktops and laptops so the most up-to-date file versions are available on all of a user's computers. Because the Desktop and Laptop Option does not require a dedicated stand-alone server as competing products do, it easily integrates into existing IT infrastructure and policies, helping lower the total cost of ownership. The new push-install functionality from within Backup Exec centralizes deployment. Release 11d adds support for Windows Vista, Windows XP 64-bit OS, as well as delta file transfer, reducing the total amount of data being backed up. With this release, this option is integrated with Backup Exec Retrieve (available with the Backup Exec Continuous Protection Server) for even greater simplified file recovery.
