Summary Based on patented, proven disk imaging technology found in our enterprise products, Acronis has developed a new edition that focuses specifically on virtual environments. Acronis True Image Virtual Edition allows your IT organisation the flexibility to backup and restore one or up to 99 virtual machines on a single, physical server – for one set price. There are no additional charges for adding new virtual machines to the licensed physical server. Whether your organisation is backing up one or up to 99 virtual servers, as long as they all reside on the same physical server, the cost remains the same! Acronis True Image Virtual Edition delivers great disaster recovery for its price vs. performance. Today, as virtualisation becomes more popular, people are using backup images for migration to and from physical1 and virtual servers – or between operating systems. While Acronis True Image Virtual Edition disaster recovery software is used to ensure the availability of data, maintaining a copy of your digital assets goes beyond simple backup and recovery. Uses include staging new servers before they go live, testing the performance impact of adding a new application to a server, and load balancing to easily move the assets between servers. The ability to proactively use the disk image for more than just disaster recovery provides added value to an organisation. Acronis True Image Virtual Edition includes Acronis Universal Restore2. Acronis Universal Restore allows you to recover server images to dissimilar virtual hardware regardless of the operating system, or installed components. Acronis Universal Restore enables you to take the last known clean image from the source virtual machine and import drivers associated with the new virtual machine into the restore process. And, because the image is captured at the disk sector level, it already includes all your configuration, application and user files. 1 Requires a one-time migration license per physical server.
2 Acronis Universal Restore is a separately licensed application provided with the purchase of Acronis True Image Virtual Edition.
