EMC Retrospect

EMC Retrospect works with both Windows and Macintosh computers (available in separate editions) and can restore a file, a folder, or your entire hard drive. It offers rapid installation, auto-backup, restore to prior points in time, choice of "keep all versions" or "keep current version only," backup of files in use, and easy backup drive rotation for extra protection of your data.

There are many editions: the professional edition would be adequate for most small photographic studios; workgroup and server editions are available for larger organizations.

Comment

EMC Retrospect gives you excellent protection against system failure, enabling you to get back up and running in about 5 minutes. Although the product range is extremely extensive, from home users all the way up to the enterprise, it works best in the category known to the trade as SMB (small to mid-sized businesses). This is where it has its primary market and where it has won awards, such as "best in category" in the Storage magazine Quality Awards 2005.
