Is your Exchange this well-protected?

In my last post, I provided an overview of the Exchange data protection architecture provided by Microsoft. If you’re unfamiliar with how VSS-based Exchange backups (also called snapshots) work, I’d recommend checking it out.

In today’s post, I’m going to share some of the top reasons why my company, Unitrends, offers the best data protection for Microsoft Exchange in the industry.  I shortened the list a great deal. If you’d like to peruse the list in its entirety, including reading greater descriptions of each feature, I’d recommend downloading my free whitepaper, Protecting Windows: Microsoft Exchange Server Data Protection.
