Backup Exec Version 2010 Exchange Agent Basic Mtce. Renewal

Backup Exec Agent for Microsoft Exchange

This enhanced agent now includes continuous data protection for Exchange Server and revolutionizes data protection and recovery by eliminating the daily backup window for Exchange backup jobs while still allowing recovery of individual messages, folders and mailboxes-in seconds. Additionally, administrators do not need to run a mailbox (or MAPI) backup, which significantly reduces the number of backups and time required to protect Exchange. The enhanced Exchange Agent can granularly recover from a single full backup, eliminating the need for multiple Exchange backups. Fast, flexible technology protects vital Exchange Server 2003, 2007 and now 2010 data while the application is still online.
