Inc. launched a set of backup and recovery features to support
its core offering for enterprise organizations on Google Apps.
The latest Spring
Release for Google Apps includes tools designed to provide ways
for administrators and end-users to manage their backups within the
internal structure of larger organizations.
With this release, the company
continues to deliver on its promise to offer organizations better
ways to manage their cloud-to-cloud backups. The release also serves
as a reminder to larger organizations about the need for better
backup solutions due to the growing issue of data loss in the cloud.
"Most people are shocked at the
number of organizations that have lost data from a cloud SaaS
application," said Dick Csaplar, senior research analyst at
Aberdeen Group, whose recent
report found that 1 in 3 companies using SaaS experienced data loss.
"People overwrite each other’s data, applications conflict
and there are always stories of unhappy workers purposefully deleting
their data on the way out the door. Organizations need to ensure that
this just can’t happen. A backup plan is critical."
"Our updated Google Apps
solution highlights Backupify’s focus and commitment to enterprise
organizations in need of a complete backup solution that prevents
loss of important business information stored on the cloud,"
said Rob May, CEO of Backupify. "Features like configurable
data retention, advanced admin access control and domain export
capabilities – functionality that’s critical for large companies –
were all built as a result of listening to our customers’ ongoing
needs."
It includes the following
data recovery
and admin controls:
- Full Domain
Export allows administrators to
download a full copy of their entire domain for a nominal fee.
Whether responding to eDiscovery requests or satisfying internal
requirements with an on-premise copy, the full domain export is a way
to have your entire domain exported in a consumable format.
- Configurable Data
Retention provides administrators with
the ability to set a customized email retention period. This feature
allows customers to respond to legal retention requirements or
internal archiving policies.
- Batch Import of
Users gives administrators the
flexibility to upload lists of users without the need to pick and
choose individuals. This feature is effective for implementing
employee onboarding activities and for ongoing user management.
- Restore and
Export Folder Hierarchy allows users to
keep their organizational structure intact when restoring or
exporting an entire account.
- Google
Sites Restore gives both end-users and
administrators the ability to restore items back to their Google
sites accounts.
Backupify has rolled out unlimited
storage to both Professional and Enterprise plans. Backupify has also
achieved SSAE-16/SOC2 Audit Certification.
