Here is a question I received about how Connected® works…
What is Connected®?
Iron Mountain created the PC backup technology market in 1995. Today, over 1,000 enterprise companies and more than 3.5 million people rely on Data Mountain’s Connected solution to protect their data. The Connected solution, an online data backup and recovery service, works with Windows-based laptops and desktops and Macintosh laptops and desktops as well.
According to Gartner Group, more than 60% of a company’s critical business, patient or customer data is stored on desktops or laptops, rather than on servers. Connected® is a fully automated online backup and recovery solution for these critical computers.
It eliminates the day-to-day burden of backing up and recovering data for remote users and greatly reduces Help Desk calls. Connected eliminates the uncertainty of traditional PC backup methods which generally rely on users to perform backups to CD or the network – through an automated process that sends your users’ critical data off site via the Internet to two secure data centers.
You benefit by ensuring that you can recover user data reliably when needed, speeding up migration to new PCs, and reducing server storage needs. At the same time, you can reduce or eliminate help desk calls from users who have lost data, as they will be able to simply access their backup data through the product or web interface.
Data Mountain offers the Connected electronic vaulting service to companies of all sizes, as an Iron Mountain Digital authorized partner.
