Overview
Virtualization is becoming more widely used and accepted. As the level of use rises, experienced users are adopting virtualization to run more of their production applications. This raises the bar for backup and recovery applications like vRanger Pro.
Today there are not only more virtual servers, (virtual server sprawl) multiple backup processes are causing redundant data to be stored (something we call backup bloat), so virtualization can cause backup and recovery to become more costly and complex with more demands on the network, the need to maintain multiple backup solutions, rising storage requirements, and increasingly complicated scheduling and recovery processes.

However, new features in vRanger Pro 4.0 will address and provide a single, comprehensive and complete backup solution that provides the scalability, improved ease of use, continuous data protection and simple recovery that will solve many of the issues surfacing for companies virtualizing today. But vRanger Pro will go beyond with additional features including multi-hypervisor support, security and reductions in the backup footprint in new and ingenious methods, that make this product a stand-out in the market today.
