Our Key Benefits
Consistent Backup Guarantees
Vinchin’s physical server backup solution utilizes VSS (Volume Shadow Copy Service)
technique for Windows Server Backup to take application-aware snapshots of NTFS volumes,
while a self-developed snapshot technique is also built in for Linux server users to
guarantee the consistency of backup data.
All-in-one Data Protection
Vinchin Backup & Recovery can be more than just Linux and Windows server backup. The
all-in-one solution also plays full compatibility with popular databases and 10+ virtual
platforms including VMware, Hyper-V, and XenServer. You can build a well-rounded backup
infrastructure for virtual machines, physical servers, and databases all at once through a
single pane of glass.
User-Friendly Administration
With a single web-based management console, you can centrally manage backup jobs and backup
data for virtual and physical IT environments across sites. Catch up with the latest
backup/restore job processing updates from automatic e-mail notifications, and assign the
backup resources properly through the guidance of the visualization interface.
Improved Data Availability
You can setup a disaster recovery plan for mission-critical Linux and Windows servers using
Offsite Backup Copy. Vinchin Backup & Recovery will send extra copies of the local backup
data to a remote site, so that when disaster hits the local production environment, you can
choose to either transfer the offsite copies back to the local backup server for on-site
reconstruction, or directly restore the system at the remote site for fast business
recovery.
