  • Recovery Manager
    WINTERNALS RECOVERY MANAGER Recovery Manager — A Superior Alternative For Windows System Recovery For restoring Windows systems, Recovery Manager has three distinct advantages over imaging products, disk-based backup solutions, and tape backup: • Speed: It can restore a system to a working state more quickly than other solutions • Data integrity: It does not destroy or over-write valuable data • Root-cause analysis: It allows you to diagnose problems and proactively prevent re-occurrences Recovery Manager complements existing enterprise imaging and backup solutions, serving as a first line of defense against system downtime. It adds a significant new layer to the standard protection strategy for corporate IT assets; enterprises that deploy Recovery Manager achieve faster time-to-recovery than would be otherwise possible. Imaging, disk-based, and tape backup products – such as Symantec Ghost, Powerquest V2i Protector, and the NetBackup line from Veritas – can create and store images of an entire volume. Imaging software (deployment tools used as recovery tools) typically maintains a default system image that includes a standard operating system and set of applications, maintained in a pristine state, but does not include application data and settings. Disk-based backup solutions may add in application data, personalized settings and configurations, and other information in real time, but impose a heavy burden in storage requirements. Tape backup provides a similar level of protection to disk-based backup, but does not typically operate in real time. Any of these solutions can be utilized when a system fails, with varying degrees of data loss and system downtime. As Greg Valentine, Winternals Manager of Technical Sales puts it: “Whenever a disk volume is overwritten as part of a recovery, the process is destructive by nature, and is always time-intensive.” Recovery Manager offers a distinct alternative — a rapid and surgical approach to system recovery.
