"IT departments today need to be more nimble than ever before, " said Walter Scott, CEO of Acronis. "Downsizing over the past few years has left fewer technical staffers to deal with a greater number of systems, both physical and virtual.

Acronis Snap Deploy makes the IT manager's job less complex and reduces costs by making it easier to deploy new systems and get new employees productive." travelstar

"Acronis Snap Deploy?.0 certainly came to the rescue of the Manpower office in Calgary, Alberta, " said Mike Armstrong, IT Technician. "We operate six week training sessions for approximately 18 potential employees where we teach them to run various computer applications, " "At the end of the class, we have to have each of the 18 computers back to a pristine condition so that the next class will be able to go through the training. Prior to using Acronis Snap Deploy, preparing each computer was a long, labor-intensive process that ran well into the night, impacting our IT department's productivity. gateway

Network-attached storage (NAS) more properly falls under the heading of backing up across the network, but it deserves a separate mention simply because it's a superior method for smaller shops and workgroups. But there's a false impression that it's expensive. Easily configurable single-drive NAS boxes from Maxtor Corp., Western Digital Corp. and others are priced well under $1 per gigabyte. Most also allow expansion via USB direct-attached drives for an even lower cost per gigabyte. A $300 drive that's physically isolated and used with some scheduled backups is a pretty cheap way to ward off time-wasting re-creation procedures. hard drives

Back Up Online

If you're supporting a large operation with a WAN and off-site repositories, chances are you also have a virtual private network (VPN) and automated clients. Those are useful resources. Gerry Maddalozzo, a networking consultant in San Francisco, recalls his days at : "Whether I was in Sao Paolo or Singapore, logging in via a VPN to automatically offload vital data from my laptop to a safe location was both convenient and reassuring." For large-scale backup, this is the best way to go. electronics

For smaller companies, an online backup service can provide both off-site safety, worldwide access and redundancy. Kevin Railsbeck, director of IT at InfoWorld magazine, a sister publication of Computerworld, chose Iron Mountain Inc.'s Connected Data Protector for his backup needs. "Online backup, specifically Connected, was the only option that allowed us to provide the same reliability and quality of backups for all of our users, both in-the-office and remote workers, " he says. "Also, they were the only provider of full-system backup over the network when we chose them in early 2002." canon

There are many other business-oriented online choices, including Backup.com's @Backup, Acpana Business Systems Inc.'s Data Deposit Box, AmberWave Communications' FirstBackup, Intronis LLC's ESureIT, Iomega Corp.'s IStorage Online and NovaStor Corp.'s Online Backup Service, as well as products from AmeriVault Corp., DataVault Inc., Register.com and SwapDrive Inc. desktop pc

Local Storage Do's and Don'ts

A strategy that provides shared local hardware but leaves users on their own is hardly optimal. But it can be modestly effective if you educate users about the need for backing up. Users are more comfortable backing up with hard drives than tape or optical media for a number of reasons: fear of disk swaps and tape rewind, bad memories of melted cassette tapes and so on. desktop computers

As a matter of fact, users tend to be too comfortable with external hard drives, not realizing that the backup drive is just as likely to fail as the drive it's backing up. If you're providing external hard drives, require or encourage rotation. A secondary internal hard drive, while subject to the same box-scale physical dangers as the primary drive, is a hedge against drive failure and malware attacks and avoids the threat of ham-handed employees. think pad

Despite the affinity many users feel for hard drives, a baseline backup to removable, storable CD or DVD is the appropriate first step for local backup. Hint: It's an easier sell if you tell users they need to do it only once. Just make sure they don't skip verification. The best practice is to provide a safe location for storing these backups, and they ideally should be cataloged by IT. repair

If you decide on or are forced into a backup strategy that leaves users on their own, don't fail to educate them on backup do's and don'ts. Some users think they're safe backing up data to a different folder on the same partition. data recovery

Even experienced users may fail to recognize the need for redundancy, rotating backups, password protection/encryption and simply backing up often enough. Better than education is education and assisted implementation - install or configure a local backup program for them that will run hands-off in the background. Spending 10 to 20 minutes now can save your department hours in the long run. cisco
