StorageCraft Offers 63% Discount on ShadowProtect IT Edition

StorageCraft Technology Corporation announced a discount offer on the purchase of StorageCraft ShadowProtect IT Edition.

From now through May 30, 2009, StorageCraft is offering a 63 percent discount on ShadowProtect IT Edition to help IT organizations during these difficult economic times. ShadowProtect IT Edition has a flexible licensing program which allows a technician unlimited use on Windows based servers, desktops and laptops for disaster recovery, system migration and data protection for physical systems and virtual environments.

“We know that businesses must protect their current servers, desktops and laptops in case of disaster,” said Curt James, vice president of marketing and business development at StorageCraft. “The chance of system failure is much higher since systems are not being replaced as often because of limited budgets during the current economic downturn.”

ShadowProtect IT Edition is part of the StorageCraft ShadowProtect line of award-winning disaster recovery, system migration and data protection software. It includes hardware independent restore (HIR) features which allow IT administrators to restore or migrate systems to new hardware or virtual environments (P2P, P2V, V2P or V2V). ShadowProtect IT Edition is complementary to virtualization solutions such as VMware, Microsoft Virtual Server and Virtual PC, Virtual Iron and Xen.

In addition, ShadowProtect IT Edition includes
the following features:

• Bare metal recovery of Windows servers, desktops and laptops in minutes.
• Ability to restore or migrate backup images without installing software.
• Bootable recovery CD which provides automatic hardware detection and network support.
• Ability to create full online or cold state backup images.
• A simple view to quickly recover files and folders or update backup images.
• Ability to compress and encrypt backup images for efficiency and security.
• Configuration tools to manage domains, mapped drives and networking.
