Description:
SMEs are looking for affordable, low-maintenance Enterprise-class BC/DR solutions that also address questions like: Are we fully protected in a disaster? Can we test our BC/DR system any time? How intrusive is a failover? Is any downtime or data loss acceptable? How difficult is a failback? and, Could we failback at all using our current DR plan?
