unitrendsData protection should be simple. You should be able to buy an all-in-one solution—either purpose built backup appliance (PBBA) or software (bring your own hardware) focused. Your data protection should adapt to you rather than forcing you to adapt to it. You should be able to get reasonable built-in deduplication instead of being forced to buy a third-party deduplication device. You should be able to support virtualization deeply and fully without being limited to the design choices of your data protection vendor. You should be able to take advantage of the cloud; not have a vendor use the cloud to take advantage of you. Most of all, data protection should focus not only on backup but on recovery. You should be able to recover quickly and recover locally, at your second site, and in the cloud.

Enter Unitrends. We adapt to you and your IT infrastructure. Simplicity, agility, adaptability, and flexibility are the hallmarks of our data protection solutions. Whether you’re trying to protect a virtual-only VMware vSphere environment of thousands of virtual machines, a single Microsoft Windows Server 2012 R2 system with multiple roles one of which is Hyper-V hosting a handful of virtual machines, a small Windows physical server with an IBM pSeries/AIX system or any other physical operating systems, a Cisco UCS implementation with virtual and physical instances of Exchange Server and Oracle Database, or an infinite number of other combinations—we have you covered.

The Greatest Challenges for IT

What are the greatest challenges for today’s IT organizations?

  • The explosion of storage and assets that must be managed?
  • Cloud computing and storage and optimizing capital and operating expense
  • Consumerization and smart devices?
  • Virtualization, sprawl and stall, and infrastructure visibility?
  • The emergence of alternative virtualization paradigms such as containers?
  • Managing unified compute, storage, network, and other components in systems such as Cisco’s UCS (Unified Computing Systems?)
  • Hiring and retention versus issues of expertise, loyalty, and retirement?

These challenges—and more—are certainly top-of-mind for every IT administrator and leader. And yet all of these are simply components to one overarching issue: people knowing they can rely on their IT infrastructure. Why is this so important?  Beyond all the TLA (Three Letter Acronyms) such as RPOs (Recovery Point Objectives), RTOs (Recovery Time Objectives), RTAs (Recovery Time Actuals), SLAs (Service Level Agreements), and the like, it comes down to some simpler and more compelling: IT staff being able to achieve their business level goals while also having a life. This might mean:

  • Simply getting home for dinner.
  • Spending an interrupted weekend with your spouse.
  • Attending your daughter’s soccer game.
  • Not fearing being awoken at 2:00AM with the gut-wrenching news that a mission-critical application is no longer available or an entire site has gone up in flames.
