Nowadays there are more and more applications as far as exchange backup is concerned. Some of these applications have been designed to be used by larger businesses and companies, and then there are other applications that are more designed for simpler purposes and smaller companies. As far as what program you choose, this can depend on a few different factors including your company's size, the amounts of info you have, what your price range is, and also your employees' skill levels.

In previous times, these programs were rather hard to understand and to use, and for the most part, there was a designated person in the company that would be in charge of operating them. A majority of the time, when the system crashes, the person in charge is unavailable whether it be they are sick or out of the office for vacation. This is why it's essential to find a program to backup your info and data so if this happens restoring your info is a breeze.

Make sure whatever program you choose has the ability to backup more than docs. It should be able to backup applications as well as mailboxes, passwords, and other data. If there's a crash, no one wants to be going back and reset preferences in each computer in the company. There really is not much time to be fiddling with computer and files when there's a crash.

Lastly, your exchange backup should be able to store your info off location. This can be essential if you live somewhere that goes through extreme weather conditions such as hurricanes, tornados, and flooding. Having your info backed up somewhere in a different location will ensure that your data, no matter what it is, is always protected. Therefore, if you have a crash, you can easily restore your items in less time and with fewer frustrations.
