StorageCraft Granular Recovery for Exchange
Organizations need a reliable way to manage emails, calendars, folders, contacts, etc. In fact, much of an organization's critical information between employees, customers, and partners takes place through email. Microsoft Exchange has proven to be the dominant global leader in the on-premise corporate email market. Whether you use Microsoft Exchange or not, it has become the heart of communication in organizations both large and small.
Unfortunately, not all Microsoft Exchange Servers are managed or maintained equally. In today's fast-paced business world, users can't afford delays in communication or the inability to retrieve critical information when they need it most. And for those who accidentally delete an email, or just can't seem to find that all-important email from a month or so ago, it can be extremely costly and inefficient to the business if the proper tools are not already in place to help recover quickly and easily under these scenarios.
By adding award-winning StorageCraft Granular Recovery for Exchange to backup and recovery tools already in place, administrators and service providers can perform complete granular search and recovery capabilities for Microsoft Exchange at the click of a button. StorageCraft Granular Recovery for Exchange allows administrators to quickly recover individual email messages, mailboxes, attachments, or even multiple mailboxes directly from an Exchange database (EDB) file. The easy-to-use interface enables an administrator to recover from an Exchange backup to a production Exchange server or PST file in minutes. They can quickly navigate to a specific mailbox and simply drag-and-drop the entire mailbox to the end user's production environment, or recover individual email messages, attachments, or other mailbox items as needed.
