Redstor Backup Pro

Data and recovery software for your school

You need to be sure that your SIMS data is secure and can be easily recovered in the event of data loss, but how much time do you spend backing up your data? Are you confident in your school’s backup and recovery procedures?

Redstor develops end-to-end remote data backup and recovery software that protects the critical information generated and stored on your school desktops, laptops and servers, giving you peace of mind.

Why choose Redstor Backup Pro?

  • The only ESS accredited SIMS backup product

    In the event of data loss, instant recovery is simply a mouse click away.

  • Managed backup process

    Managed service provided by LA, academy or service provider enabling huge time savings for schools and users.

  • Completely secure and protected

    Critical data is protected automatically and sent offsite, completely secure and encrypted.

  • Central user management

    Provides a service automatically protecting schools' data, including admin and/or curriculum data, common applications such as Exchange/SQL, and also desktops and laptops, all to an offsite location.

  • Saves you time and money

    Enables instant recovery in the event of data loss and saves schools and local authorities’ time and money, compared to existing backup and recovery procedures.

Redstor Backup Pro features

  • High level of security

    SSL protocol-encrypted network communications, 256-bit Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) Storage Platform data encryption, and Backup Client user authentication.

  • Fast backup and restore

    Backup and restore data in excess of 1 GB/second. Easy recovery from either primary or secondary data repository.

  • Simplified Networking

    A one port fits all solution where all connections are made through a single 443 standard internet browsing port. Without compromising security, this is a simple solution compared to most other backup solutions which require connections to multiple ports.

  • Bare Metal Recovery (BMR)

    Creates a snapshot of the client machine enabling instant recovery from the backup image without requiring OS or application reinstallation.

  • Superior offsite data redundancy

    Redstor Backup Pro allows for secure storage of multiple data copies in separate geographic locations.

  • Fully scalable and flexible

    The Storage Platform can be local, remote or both. Redstor Backup Pro also caters for Slave and MirrorServer configurations.

  • Exceptional compression

    All data is compressed in transit and storage, further minimising transfer times, network loads and storage requirements.

  • Enterprise-level reporting

    The Enterprise Reporting Suite provides a large number of customisable reports. Automated reports include the StorageServer Disk Space, Mirror, and StorageServer status reports.

  • Redundant version control

    Data can be recovered from previously backed up states, allowing file and system state rollbacks. Multiple copies of each version ensure complete data protection.
