September 27, 2005, South San Francisco,
CA Acronis, Inc. (www.acronis.com), the
technological leader in storage management software, announced that
Cabot Corp. (NYSE: CBT) has standardized on Acronis True Image
Server 8.0 for Windows, the latest version of Acronis'
award-winning disk imaging, disaster recovery and bare-metal backup
and restore utility.
The software allows systems administrators and
network managers to image servers without impacting system
performance or causing user downtime. Features of the Windows
Server version include the ability check the disk image integrity
before restore and file system integrity after restore, to exclude
paging/hibernate files from the disk image, and assign the priority
for the disk imaging process. As a result, system administrators
can manage the server performance balancing between the backup
process and server applications.
"Cabot Corp. is a multinational chemicals
company and one of the world's leading suppliers of carbon black,"
said Tushar Patel, IT manager for Cabot Corp. "Our operations run
24/7 globally, so it is absolutely imperative that our servers are
available and operating. Downtime can cost an enormous amount of
money it simply is not an option."
"Not only do the servers running Acronis True
Image need to be available continuously, we needed a solution that
could work while servers were running mission-critical applications
such as enterprise resource planning and customer relationship
management systems that are vital to our operations. Ensuring that
these servers can be restored in minutes in case of a failure was a
key factor in choosing Acronis True Image," Patel added.
"Our Acronis implementation has been 100 percent
successful. We already experienced one server failure, during which
Acronis True Image Server for Windows saved us approximately 10 to
12 hours of configuration time. Our return on investment was
counted in minutes, not days," he said. "Acronis True Image Server
exceeded our expectations."
"While Acronis True Image Server was originally
conceived as a solution for the small to midsize business market,
Cabot Corp. demonstrates it's the software's flexibility in large
enterprises that require point-in-time backups of servers running
mission-critical applications," said Max Tsypliaev, president of
Acronis Inc. "Understanding your server requirements and matching
those requirements to the right disaster recovery product is
essential, and with Acronis' range of offerings, we're able to meet
even the most demanding needs of some of the world's most complex
computing environments."
"Cabot Corp. is not unlike so many other
publicly held enterprises," said Stephen Lawton, Acronis' director
of marketing. "Cabot has regulatory and compliance requirements
that can be overwhelming without the right backup and disaster
recovery solution. Acronis True Image Server for Windows provides
that exact mix of technological expertise that makes the compliance
officers happy, while providing the kind of value and cost
effectiveness that brings a smile to the CFO as well."
Financial terms of the agreement were not
released.
