Asigra Broadens Enterprise Footprint by Supporting Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007

Asigra Inc., the technology leader in agentless backup and recovery software for enterprises and service providers targeting the growing managed storage services market, today announced that its award-winning Televaulting technology supports Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 and Windows SharePoint Services 3.0. Now, enterprises can protect SharePoint data across distributed sites while managed service providers (MSPs) can offer a backup service that covers the most comprehensive array of platforms and applications on the market.
More and more companies of every size are turning to Microsoft SharePoint technologies for collaboration, workflow, and document management. Consequently they are creating critical business data on servers that need to be protected to the same high level as their Exchange servers. Asigra extends object-level restore capabilities of whole sites, databases, individual documents, calendars and more across distributed computing environments.
“Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 is fast becoming a major platform for sharing information within enterprises worldwide,” said Eran Farajun, executive vice president of Asigra. “Our support of SharePoint will allow IT administrators to get more out of their backup and restore capabilities while giving them more time to do value-added work. Our SharePoint functionality will create opportunities for MSPs to deliver backup and restore solutions to a previously under-served marketplace.”
