Exchange Server Backup
DataCrypt's comprehensive approach to backup management now allows you to execute your Exchange Server backups right down to the 'Mailbox level'.
DataCrypt supports Exchange Server backups for Exchange Server 2000 with Service Pack 3 / Exchange Server 2003 / Exchange Server 2007.
You can now choose between the Basic / Advanced Exchange Server Plug-in in DataCrypt. The Basic plug-in for Exchange Server backup is provided with your DataCrypt installation at no extra charge and uses the NTBackup utility to dump Storage Group data. The Advanced (Plugin) Exchange Server backup uses the ESE API to backup Storage Groups and Mail Stores.
Incremental features in the Advanced plug-in include:
- Optimal use of dump files for local storage: the dump file is compressed and automatically purged after use (In Basic plug-in, the dump file will be maintained locally in the client machine for further differential log backups)
- Support for Storage Group level and Mail Store Level backup
- Straight through Restore of Exchange Server backup (as opposed to a 2 step process in Basic plug-in)
- Comprehensive Backup & Restore report of Exchange Server backup is available
- Detailed Exchange Server Backup & Restore email reports available
Whether you use the basic or the advanced plug-in, besides DataCrypt's refreshing user interface, a comprehensive approach also enables us to leverage powerful components of DataCrypt's core solution and apply them to Exchange Server backups. For example, data compression with the powerful ZLIB algorithm provides excellent compression ratios, military strength encryption (up to 448 bits) with the Blowfish algorithm ensures your data is always protected, and incremental backups capture byte level changes in your databases using our Intelli-Delta technology based on the proven and powerful RSYNC algorithm !
We encourage you to download a trial and evaluate DataCrypt's Exchange backup capabilities to appreciate the benefits of managing backups and restores in heterogeneous environments - with one comprehensive solution!

Exchange Server Backups are supported in Windows 2000 Server, 2003 Server & Small Business Server installations from DataCrypt Version 2.1.!
