FIGURE 11. INDIVIDUAL INBOX RESTORED
Figure 11 displays the restored Inbox. ESG Lab noted a message from Backup Exec, which explained that one
or more items had been restored to the mailbox. The wizard-driven restore of a deleted Inbox was effortless and
completed in less than two minutes.
Why This Matters
As e-mail has evolved from an alternative communications medium to an indispensable business tool,
applications such as Microsoft Exchange have been elevated to mission-critical status within most
organizations. Keeping Microsoft Exchange data available for all users at all times can be a huge challenge
–
particularly for small to medium-sized businesses that often lack full-time IT staff.
The Dell PowerVault DL2000 Powered by Symantec Backup Exec with Granular Recovery Technology
delivers quick and easy disk-based backup and recovery of Microsoft Exchange data. ESG Lab found that it
is extremely easy to configure and manage Microsoft Exchange backups. Individual messages and mailbox
restores can be completed in minutes instead of hours compared to traditional methods which require a full
restore.
