Recovery Time Drops from Hours to Minutes Since installing two, 250-GB Axcient appliances in Aug. 2011 – one at Budget’s headquarters in Beverly Hills, the other at its rental operation at the Los Angeles International Airport – Mirkin said the Axcient solution has lived up to Budget’s high expectations. “People have mistakenly deleted, misplaced, and overwritten files,” Mirkin explained. “We went into the Axcient appliance, found the files, and got them back in about five minutes. The process is always very simple with Axcient.” For Lancord Systems, helping clients recover files with Axcient couldn’t be easier. “They (Budget) love it,” Asvadi said. “And for me Axcient is on autopilot. It’s agentless – a major differentiator from other providers that make you install extra agents and software – and everything is seamless and transparent. Before Axcient, it took multiple hours to backup and restore. Now with Axcient, it only takes 5 minutes! Jeff summed it up – Axcient just works.” About Axcient Axcient’s cloud platform makes it easy for businesses to store, protect and access all their information and systems anytime, anywhere.
