We're very pleased to announce that national daily newspaper The Guardian, now trusts in MailStore Server for efficiently and securely managing its emails. The newspaper is published by Guardian News...
A quick Google search produces plenty of opinion pieces out there on cloud computing adoption, but as the Cloud Security Alliance (CSA) and ISACA carry a fair amount of clout in the industry, I wanted to share some interesting findings from one of their recent surveys.
BackupAssist's Hyper-V product has been featured in a recent review on the virtualisation pages of the TechTarget group Web site.
Acknowledged as one of the smaller players in the Hyper-V backup market, BackupAssist with it's Hyper-V Granular Restore Console received praise as a product that -
"offers great value for small and medium-sized businesses"
...and is "a good place to start if you're an SMB".
One trend I've noticed since we've been supplying BackupAssist is the popularity of RDX and REV drives for image backups, particularly in small and medium-sized businesses. I put this down mainly to how cost-effective they can be in comparison to similar capacity tape devices, and also that they still provide that same familiar multiple cartridge approach that tape device users are used to.
“We’re too small for that.”
Ironically, small companies are often the ones most vulnerable to the consequences of both data loss and legal action. MailStore provides a perfect, unmodified copy of all messages and headers so you're always in possession of what could end up being evidence, just in case it's ever needed. The fast search is also just an extremely useful tool for saving the time it takes employees to perform searches for emails.
The Zen Software knowledge base is full of useful technical 'How to' guides for all the software we sell.
As the software develops we do our best to keep on top of the articles and update them where appropriate, as well as add new articles to cover new topics and procedures.
Here are the most recent updates...
Neil and I were on the road again on Wednesday, this time to join the guys at AMITPRO in Birmingham to talk about MDaemon Messaging Server as a possible alternative to Exchange.
Its been a while since I recommended a useful free software tool. But this time I want to introduce a tool that I have been using for many years but recently have found very useful specifically when dealing with Rsync jobs in BackupAssist.
Introducing WINSCP
WINSCP is developed by Martin Prikryl of Putty fame. It is a simple utility that at first glance works in exactly the same way as an FTP client but with some very useful features that stand out. 
Just a quick note to let you know the latest update release of MDaemon went live today and is available on our Web site ready for download here.
