Data Protection for Small and Medium Business
EMC® Retrospect® backup and recovery software delivers automated, reliable data protection for small and medium businesses (SMBs) and branch offices of distributed enterprises.

EMC Retrospect delivers powerful yet easy-to-use data protection for your servers, 24×7 applications, desktops, and notebooks. It protects your business from data loss due to user error, computer failure, or site-wide disasters. Retrospect protects millions of computers world-wide and consistently earns top awards and broad industry acclaim for its unique patented technology.

Easy to set up and manage
Robust data protection doesn’t have to be complex. Retrospect’s intuitive wizards get you up and running quickly. Backup operations are automatically
adjusted to ensure that all computers are protected without requiring manual intervention. With Retrospect there is no need to write new backup scripts each day to keep backups running smoothly. And user-initiated restores enable end users to perform fast onsite recovery of their data without putting a strain on IT resources.

Avoid weekly full backups
Unlike other backup applications, Retrospect delivers fast incremental backups while still providing accurate restores. Retrospect does this by creating a list of hard drive contents during each backup. Retrospect later uses this list to select the exact data necessary to perform an accurate restore to a prior point in time. With Retrospect you get a perfect restore every time. Other software doesn’t utilize such a list and therefore can only provide an accurate restore to the day a full backup was performed.

Simplifies management of backup media
Traditional backup software requires a complex strategy to protect against failure of backup media or a site-wide disaster. Multiple sets of tapes must be created, tracked, and rotated offsite in a rigid and unforgiving manual
process. Retrospect eliminates complex tape rotation strategies. Simply create two sets of tapes. Keep one set onsite for backups and restores. Send the other offsite for safety. Rotating tape sets is easy and fast.

Disk-to-disk-to-tape backups
Retrospect protects more computers in less time when utilizing disk as a backup destination. For offsite protection, create synthetic full sets of tapes by rapidly streaming data from the backup disk, eliminating the need to perform another backup over the network so applications and users remain unaffected. Establish a policy that retains a set number of backups and
automatically removes older data to make room for newer backups. You never have to perform a full backup again.

Highest level of security for backup media
Retrospect delivers the strongest possible security for your backup media using U.S. government-certified 128-bit and 256-bit AES encryption. With AES encryption, unauthorized individuals cannot access information stored on backup media in the event that it is lost, stolen, or misplaced.
Disaster recovery. During the normal course of performing backups, Retrospect automatically gathers all the necessary information—including the operating system, applications, and all settings—to completely restore a computer that has failed. Simply create a disaster recovery (DR) CD from the backup media when needed. With Retrospect there is no need to go through the wasteful and time-consuming process of periodically creating new DR CDs for every computer.

EMC Retrospect Continuous Backup NEW!
EMC Retrospect Continuous Backup provides organizations with secure, transparent protection of user data on laptops and desktops that run at the “Edge” of your network and are maintained by centralized policies. Retrospect Continuous Backup’s patent-pending technology protects every document edited by a user, either on or off the network, at the instant that the document is saved to disk–regardless of the location where the
documents are stored.

Mozy Online Backup Integration NEW!
Retrospect now includes integration with award-winning Mozy online backup. Mozy increases the security of your critical data by sending an encrypted copy to a protected, offsite data center. In the event of a disaster such as theft, fire, or flood, your data remains safe and available for restore from any computer connected to the Internet.
