Provides a simplified, consistent approach to managing data protection and recovery operations across the entire organization: data centers, remote offices, mobile employees, disaster recovery sites; from laptop to mainframe.

Reduces costs and simplifies procurement and deployment

License costs can be reduced through the use of built-in source and target data deduplication. There is no charge for duplicate copies of the data.
Through progressive incremental backups, data compression and built-in data deduplication, the amount of backup data being stored is signiﬁcantly reduced, thereby reducing the cost of the per terabyte license.
Reduces overall storage costs through policy-based migration of data to less expensive tiers of storage and automated expiration at the end of the lifecycle.

Scales to meet the recovery needs of any size organization

Facilitates a multitude of connections, including Internet, wide area networks (WAN), local area networks (LAN) and storage area networks (SAN).
Provides superior functionality, performance and reliability because it uses a fully integrated, enterprise-class IBM DB2® relational database and transaction log to track the managed data’s metadata. No DB2 database administration skills are required.
Can eliminate the burden of running backups on a virtual machine by using the VMware vStorage APIs for Data Protection.
Supports the Microsoft Volume Shadow Copy Service to perform full-image snapshots of virtual machines in Microsoft Hyper-V environments.

Manages the entire suite of products from a single user console

Delivers centralized administration and intelligent data move-and-store techniques to help ease storage management.
Manages backup and restore from across system and application types, locations, service level requirements and types of failures.
Allows you to configure and set polices for each protected system, monitor and report on both client and server operations, schedule and push upgrades for Microsoft Windows client agents and execute backup and restore operations.
