DELL SonicWALL Bare Metal Restore/Local Archiving for CDP Series - Workstation (1 License)

Bare Metal Restore/Local Archiving for CDP Series - Workstation (1 License) Each minute of downtime in today’s business environment is money wasted. In fact, an extended down-time can actually doom a small to medium-sized organization. Gartner Group estimates that two out of every five businesses experiencing downtime from a disaster will be out of business in 5 years. Taking backup and disaster recovery seriously is the only real insurance against this possibility. Organizations of all sizes rely on servers, desktops and laptops to run their business and retain key business data. However, systems malfunction, software becomes corrupted, viruses spread and natural disasters occur. After such an event, most organizations are not prepared to quickly resume operations to ensure the organization is up and running as quickly as possible.

Whether an entire network, a single server or an important file is lost, the Recovery Time Objective (RTO) is always the same—immediate. To backup data continuously, automatically and easily, the SonicWALL® CDP Series appliances are the most effective solution. SonicWALL CDP can also expand protection to include operating systems, applications and system configurations with addition of the SonicWALL CDP Bare Metal Recovery Solution. With the combination of the CDP appliance, CDP Bare Metal Recovery plus the CDP Offsite Data Backup Service, SonicWALL provides comprehensive data protection that is needed by any small and medium sized organization’s network. SonicWALL CDP Bare Metal Recovery has been specifically optimized in an OEM arrangement with a leading software vendor—Acronis.
