What to Look for in An Exchange Backup Application

Finding an Exchange backup application that is right for your company is actually quite simple. There are a few things that you should look for, to make sure that you have the right package. The first aspect of protecting your data is making sure that your backup is kept offsite, and the best Exchange backup programs will allow you to do that. Not only will you be able to back up the information to an off-site location, but you will be able to manage the backup from off-site as well.
Another feature that you should look for in an application is the ability to backup not only documents, but all of the user preferences and settings as well. If you are working on a large network, the possibility of each individual user losing all of their settings (including their beloved mailboxes) is something that you just couldn't recover from. So, make sure that whatever program you choose will backup everything on your server, and not just the documents themselves.
Finally, make sure that the program is easy enough for someone other than you to use. Having a backup program that only one person in the entire company can use is no good. You need one that is easy to use, easy to install, and easy to create a complete recovered disk from, too.
