Ian said: “We put less backup drives in the on-premise solutions. Even though, there’s a cost to Redstor, there’s a saving to be made because you don’t need expensive tape drives/hard drives on site. Also admin intervention has been cut dramatically, they now can get on with their job instead of worrying about stuck tape drives or incomplete backups.
“We used to put two separate sets of discs in a NAS box, another disc in the server to send the backups every night to different places. Now with Redstor, schools have their raid, a NAS box and Redstor so there is a saving there too - with the added aspect of having offsite protection.”
