Alternative ways to access Official Backup Exec Technical Support
I think it is fair to say that Backup Exec technical support is less beloved worldwide than Grumpy Cat or Game of Thrones. That being said, the members of that team are hard-working and do the best they can to help the users they speak with. As part of the recent corporate overhaul, we have new leadership of Technical Support at the Sr VP level and further down into the trenches of
Enterprise Vault Backup Improvement Info Gathering
Hello Connect Friends!!! Savings of IT costs brings smiles to management and all the relevant stakeholders, but with savings there seems backpressure to admins of maintaining SLA for backups and if that is breached ... makes them worry and sometimes spoils their weekends too.. Quiet sad thing, but is fact in reality.
It’s Time to Reduce Cost and Complexity
Whilst company revenues are expected to increase throughout 2015, IT budgets are largely expected to remain at 2014 levels[1] driving the need for IT teams to deliver more to the business with the same, or less resource. The end of support life of Windows Server 2003 in July 2015 will be a driver for many organizations to review hardware and software estates; to look to new technologies in an effort to take account of flat or declining budgets. Although it often becomes an afterthought, backup and recovery can consume a significant portion of budget not in terms of product purchase necessarily but in terms of staff cost: skills required to manage complexity with so many facets to the infrastructure. Despite industry analyst recommendations[2], some organisations continue to make use of multiple products to protect the different platforms or technologies within their environment. Business productivity is driven by innovation not by underlying process. Backup Exec 15 can be purchased, maintained and renewed through a single, all-inclusive license meter that enables full functionality; deployed, managed and upgraded centrally. Combined with a robust architecture which maximises reliability Backup Exec 15 helps you spend less time ‘doing backup.’ It’s Time for backup and recovery that gives your time back. It’s Time for Backup Exec 15.

Over many years the increasing growth of data has been of significance to IT teams looking to access, manage and protect company information. That data now resides in a greater quantity of ever more disparate locations within or outside one geographical location. Estimates suggest that global data will reach 7.9 Zetabytes in 2015, up from 1.2 Zetabytes in 2010. Furthermore the same estimates forecast that number will have increased to around 40 Zetabytes by 2020.[1] Today over 60% of that data is unstructured and therefore in many cases, unmanaged and potentially difficult to protect and restore. Whilst many conversations circulate around big data and driving value from vast quantities of data, the day-to-day issue for most organisations is one of meeting and improving recovery point and recovery time objectives (RPO and RTO). Powerful, integrated technologies enable more frequent backups and rapid recovery across physical, virtual and cloud, different operating systems and applications. Ever-increasing volumes of data across a wide range of platforms and applications impact recovery objectives. Backup Exec 15 enables intelligent protection of information that brings recovery points closer and recovery times shorter, maximising available infrastructure resources. Backups take place more frequently, restore is completed as soon as it’s needed. Once captured that data is easily transitioned and repurposed in virtual infrastructure for test, development and analytics. It’s Time for backup and recovery that outperforms expectations. It’s Time for Backup Exec 15.

Well understood as drivers of change in IT departments throughout EMEA with an adoption rate for server virtualization of 79% and cloud adoption of 56%[1] these two continue to proliferate messages of cost benefits and simplification. Perhaps we consider cloud as ‘virtual that somebody else does for me’ and gain a better understanding of the nature of where information is stored. Whilst the adoption of public cloud storage for backup in EMEA remains well behind adoption of web hosting, email hosting, content filtering and productivity solutions it does demand a new level of flexibility in planning information protection for both the short and longer term futures. We find ourselves moving rapidly from static, largely on-premise, physical infrastructures that are designed and built to last for a number of years, to infrastructures which are specifically designed to account for and embrace change across a wide variety of platforms, technologies and delivery mechanisms: physical, virtual and cloud. IT infrastructure is no longer built to last, but built to change across a combination of virtual, physical and cloud. You can take confidence in Backup Exec 15’s breadth and depth of integrated capabilities and have the flexibility to make business-centric decisions for IT, safe in the knowledge that information is protected and recoverable whatever your platform or technology. It’s Time for backup and recovery that enables choice. It’s Time for Backup Exec 15. Join the conversation #ItsTimeForBE15 [1] Spiceworks “State of IT” Report, January 2015
