All Your Valuable Data, Automatically, Every Day

The Norrcom Cloud Backup service provides fully automated reliable and secure offsite backup for the home, professional, self employed, small to medium businesses and large enterprises.
 

Always Cloud Backup

After the initial backup, Norrcom Cloud Backup backs up your critical data using patented technology that copies only the bytes that have changed in your files and databases, using incremental patching. This minimises network traffic while enabling any days backup to be easily restored.
 
Norrcom Cloud Backup safely and securely backs up open files and databases like Microsoft Exchange, SQL and SharePoint, Oracle, Sybase and Lotus Domino using API specific plug-ins and Microsoft VSS technology.
 

Assured Off-Site Critical Data Protection

With Norrcom Cloud Backup, the backup data is protected every step of the way. Incorporating the leading security technology available, Norrcom Cloud Backup protects your data using 256 bit AES encryption and 128 bit SSL communications. 
 
Significantly all backup data is retained in New Zealand and is stored on enterprise class servers running the ZFS file system with full RAID data protection. The servers are hosted in Tier 3 + data centres and all data is mirrored to two geographically separate locations.
 
Each data centre facility features comprehensive physical security, UPS, emergency backup generators, and fire protection systems.

Backup Client 

The Norrcom Cloud Backup Client provides you with an intuitive interface for you to configure and automate your backup database, folder and file selections.  While the Norrcom Cloud Backup Service automates all the backend functions, including automated reporting and email alerts, you retain complete control of your backup operations by creating business rules, backup policies and initiating restore requests. 
 
The Norrcom Cloud Backup retrieval service enables you to select restore operations from a catalogue of all archived file versions. In the event of massive failure we can arrange delivery of your data physically to you on-site via a removable storage device.
 

Intelligent file inclusion and exclusion 

Control which files and folders are backed up and restored using a range of Attix5 Pro selection tools. These include filters and profiling features that enable administrators to enforce backup selections. Controlled backup selection facilitates rapid, transparent backups, even over low-speed connections. 
 

Anywhere, anytime recovery 

Recover critical data in seconds from your backup data to any workstation or server remotely. Customers can easily select files, folders and databases to restore from any web browser and then initiate the restore process themselves, without the need for technical assistance. 
 

More Reliable – More Affordable

Norrcom Cloud Backup provides a very convenient and reliable backup and retrieval solution. You will find it more cost effective and efficient than traditional tape backup infrastructure or alternative systems.
 
Consider the total cost of ownership and potential risks of data loss across the entire backup and recovery value chain, including data capture, removal of tapes to an off-site facility, storage in a secure facility, and accurate recovery from tapes. Then consider the cost of hardware, software, and tapes that must be replaced every few years, ongoing maintenance and off-site tape storage fees, as well as lost employee productivity due to data loss or corruption, employee time required to restore data, and the cost of retrieving tapes.
 
Business can now eliminate the burden and associated data risk of manual tape-based procedures, saving time and money in the process. In today’s business environment, the inability to quickly recover data can cause a loss of revenue, customers, and reputation.
