Cost Effectiveness
Web Secure Backup eliminates a large number of cost items typically associated with traditional tape backup in a well run computer installation.
It eliminates the need for :
- Equipment
- Media
- Operator intervention
- Couriers
- Off-site data storage
- Can reduce the cost of traditional backup by well over 40%
As shown below, using an example of a customer that wants to backup 100GBs of data, Automatic Offsite Backup is far more cost effective.
