EMC Corporation (NYSE: EMC) has announced enhanced enterprise backup capabilities for desktop and laptop computers, as part of the latest version of EMC® Avamar® software. Businesses and organizations of all sizes can now leverage the same innovative Avamar deduplication technology that protects data centers and remote offices to efficiently backup the information stored on corporate desktops and laptops. With Avamar's simple capacity-based licensing model, customers can easily add this new capability to their environment, without paying a per seat license fee.
The addition of new lightweight clients for Microsoft Windows and Mac, an intuitive end user interface for backups and restores, and powerful tools for administrators, Avamar extends Avamar's enterprise data protection to desktops and laptops. Using Avamar means backups are non-disruptive, and a self-service recovery model makes it easy for end users to restore data. Avamar users never have to backup the same data twice, reducing daily network impact by up to 99%.
EMC has increased Avamar backup capacity by more than 60 percent and added new deduplicated export to tape functionality.
