Continuous, simplified server backup and recovery

Double-Take® Software’s solutions enable continuous server backup, on-demand restoration and any-point-in-time restoration options that are right for your business size. Our solutions reduce costs by simplifying the protection and recovery of important systems and continuously replicate changes to data, applications and the source server's operating system, protecting the entire server. When it's time to recover, we allow you to configure and perform recoveries on-demand to physically dissimilar hardware or virtual servers, with added validation steps to make sure recovery will go as planned. With Double-Take Software you can reliably and cost-effectively back up locally or back up branch office data from a central location, in real-time to disk. By replicating branch office data to a central location, you eliminate the need to do backups in the field and can recover data more quickly.

• Continuous Replication - Our solutions provide continuous data replication over any distance so you always have access to a current copy of your data, applications and OS.
• Fast, Flexible, On-demand Recovery - When a system volume or entire server fails, recovery of both system state and data can be performed from the management console. This reduces the number of steps and time needed to recover a server to its original state, improving achievable recovery time objectives (RTO). The recovery process can account for a variety of differences between the original source and recovery server, prohibit incompatible differences, and warn the user of possible performance degradations after recovery. Our solutions replicate and can recover between any configuration of physical and virtual systems.
• Streamlined Branch and Remote Office Backup - You don't have to rely on a costly and complex approach to branch office data protection. With Double-Take Software you can reliably and cost effectively back up branch office data from a central location, in real-time to disk. Because our products are designed to be WAN-friendly, they are ideal for remote office and branch office backup scenarios. By replicating data to a central location, you can eliminate the need to do backups in the field and recover data more quickly.

Double-Take® Move

Double-Take Move is the most efficient tool on the market for consolidating data centres and moving servers between locations. By using WAN-friendly, real-time data replication to move workloads, migrating across the country is as easy as migrating between servers in the same location.

Key Features:

• No Downtime Migrations - Perform X2X migrations to move workloads across any combination of physical and virtual server environments for live server migration and site consolidation all while your users remain online.
• Efficient, Flexible Data centre Consolidation - Consolidate your data centre to more efficient blade technology and a more flexible virtual infrastructure.
• Simple Storage Migration - Storage vendor migration can easily move storage solutions to move from a Fibre Controller SAN to Ethernet iSCSI.
• P2P or V2P Migrations Avoid hardware vendor lock with disparate hardware with server hardware migrations that easily switch hardware vendors from (P2P), P2V or V2P

P2V or V2V Migrations - Increase virtual platform flexibility being able to migrate to different virtualisation vendors. Virtualisation platform migration can switch between virtualisation platforms and move workloads from a VMware to Hyper-V (V2V) environment.
