Sunnyvale, CA based Zetta.net today announced the general availability of Zetta.net DataProtect™ 4.0, an enterprise-grade cloud backup and disaster recovery solution for small and medium enterprises (SMEs), remote/branch offices, and managed service providers (MSPs). In addition, Zetta.net has announced a Series B funding of $8 million for continued expansion and growth.
Zetta.net DataProtect delivers 3-in-1 enterprise-grade data protection that includes local software, cloud backup, archiving and disaster recovery functionality. Unlike other solutions, DataProtect is cloud-native, specifically designed for the Internet with built-in WAN traffic optimization and 10 patent-pending cloud performance acceleration technologies. The result is lightening fast speed that is often faster than local backup. Coupled with enterprise-grade data centers and security levels, Zetta.net delivers a high-performing, appliance-free solution that is being rapidly adopted by organizations looking to replace older, complex backup systems with an easy-to-deploy and cost-effective alternative.
New features of Zetta.net DataProtect 4.0 include:
· Advanced WAN Traffic Optimization – 200 percent faster than Zetta.net DataProtect 3.0, and 396 percent faster backup speed than performance-tested competitors; this enables users to backup in minutes versus hours, or even days, and recover multiple TBs of data within a 24-hour period.
· Local Backup Functionality for all data sets - users can recover larger or more critical data faster with the ability tokeep it locally on any existing storage device.
· Redesigned User Interface - delivers greater ease of use, both locally at the server and in the cloud; configuration wizards automate and simplify server backup jobs, with built-in server type-specific backup configuration checklists.
· Enhanced Exchange Server Backup Plug-in – now includes support for a range of complex Exchange server configurations.
