Why Rover Echo™

Best Protection For Data That Lives On The Edge

The edge is defined as mobile and laptop users or remote offices not tethered to corporate networks, or desktop data that is frequently not included as part of the backup window. Industry experts report that this under-protected data amounts to 50 to 70 percent of all corporate data. Rover Echo™ is specifically designed to fill this void and takes data protection all the way to the edge of your office or corporate enterprise.

For the home user, digital images capturing years of memories are often irreplaceable, along with digital music collections that have taken both time and money to assemble, can be the most devastating loss of data. The majority of home based computer systems are backed up infrequently, if at all.

The Continuous Data Protection delivered with Rover Echo™ is seamless and runs in the background similar to antivirus software. It’s fast to install, simple to use and allows for multiple backup targets including USB card drives, portable hard drives, servers and offsite storage.

When it comes to computer systems, the unexpected should always be expected.

Consider the facts:

  • One hard drive crashes every 15 seconds in the US.
  • One out of every five hard drives will fail.
  • Hardware or system failure accounts for 78% of all data loss.
  • Operating systems or web software upgrades can cause unexpected failures.
  • Viruses corrupt and delete data files
  • 2,000 laptops are lost or stolen every day - the data not backed up and only 1% of those lost or stolen are recovered.
  • On average, it takes 19 days to recreate just 20 MB of lost data.
  • In most cases, pictures can never be recreated.
  • Most home based computer systems are infrequently backed up, if ever. The same is true for laptop systems.
  • Data backup for businesses happens once a day, at best, and often fails to include critical files that are commonly stored in locations not included in backup routines.
