What are some options for data recovery?

There are multiple ways to recover your clients’ business-critical data, including hard drive recovery, rapid recovery, tape recovery, and digital recovery. Acronis offers multiple ways to recover data and with Acronis Universal Restore, you can restore your clients’ Windows or Linux systems to similar or dissimilar hardware including bare-metal, physical, virtual, or cloud environments.

What does data recovery software do?

Data recovery software helps you recover users’ data after system errors, accidental deletion, formatting issues, cyberattacks, natural disasters, and more.

What is failover in disaster recovery?
