1.7 What's new in Acronis Backup & Recovery 11.5
Expanding the backup and recovery capabilities in physical, virtual, and cloud environments, Acronis
has now added backup and recovery of the Microsoft Exchange Server data.
The following is a summary of the product's new features and enhancements.
Backup and recovery of Microsoft Exchange Server data
Key features
Support for Microsoft Exchange Server 2010
Acronis Backup supports Microsoft Exchange Server 2010 as well as Microsoft Exchange Server
2003/2007.
Express full backup method
This method is based on monitoring changes of the Exchange database files. Once the initial full
backup is taken, all subsequent backups will only back up changes to this database without
needing to read the entire database file. Combining this method with the data deduplication
functionality makes it possible to back up large databases of 1TB or more during business hours
and even over WANs.
