Most data loss issues are the result of user error
Most companies now realise it is their own responsibility to provide a backup for their online data. Easier Backup, as its name suggests, provides an easy to setup, irrevocable, continuous, daily backup of files that pass through Office 365 for Business. These can be kept either wholly on-site, with no Internet dependencies, or may be stored on an alternative cloud location.

Ivor Share, MD, Digilink, comments: “Whether for protection against accidental file deletion, for virus and ransomware protection or for continuity for data retention laws, the company, not Microsoft, has to provide a robust, irrevocable backup solution. Now not only large multi-national corporations can deploy this kind of backup. Small to medium sized enterprises can take advantage at minimal cost and with no specialist setup needed. Most especially, computing consultants with smaller sized clients can now ensure their customers can deploy the same security blanket around their data that previously only larger corporations could enjoy“.

Hitachi Content Platform (HCP) integration
The company also announced the built-in capability to integrate with Hitachi Vantara’s Hitachi Content Platform (HCP). This gives larger companies the ability to rationalise their backup, however sizeable, increasing security while reducing the TCO. Additionally, Carbonite and Dropbox users can integrate Easier Backup to utilise their existing cloud storage capabilities.

“The flexibility of being able to choose an in-house backup as an alternative to a cloud storage location should not be underestimated. At a moment’s notice, the system can either restore any file or folder Office 365 or alternatively export a complete Office 365 site locally for immediate, unfettered access, regardless of network status. Additionally, Easier Backup running in-house means that end-user authentication credentials as well as the backup data itself can be kept off the cloud, further reducing the risk of data being compromised“.

In contrast to other software vendors billing plans, Digilink will let subscribe on a monthly option with no up-front commitment and no commitment to stay. The price per user per month is what you pay. As an alternative, for just over a one-year equivalent payment, you can now purchase a paid-up, perpetual license, with nothing more to pay. That’s an outright license purchase for around half the upfront subscription cost of competitive solutions. There’s also a one-month’s free trial. Convert to a purchase within 3 months and the firm will credit that against the purchase too. Easier Backup is available for download now.

Free System Integrator and Consultant copies
To increase awareness of this solution for Office365 within the system integrator and computer consultant community, Digilink is announced that it is able to provide the first installation free of charge to any third-party consultant, wishing to install at one of their client customers. There are no restrictions on the number of users at the target company.
