PC Backup

Connected Backup is the undisputed number‐one service for backing up PCs. Thousands of organizations and more than 3.5 million people rely on Iron Mountain’s Connected Backup to help manage their most current and vulnerable data—more than 3 petabytes of it.

This simple‐yet‐powerful solution:

• Automatically backs up PC data without disturbing users,
• Allows reliable and easy data restoration,
• Puts an end to data loss from viruses, lost or stolen laptops, data corruption and simple mistakes,
• Gives IT control of secure backup and restoration both inside and beyond company firewalls.

The Connected Backup solution provides the following essential functions:

• Backup. Enables rapid, automatic and unintrusive backup of PC data, even over dial‐up connections.
• Recovery. Data recovery is typically managed with just a few mouse clicks.
• MyRoam. Allows users to download/restore a usable, de‐encrypted and decompressed version of a backed‐up file onto any machine—a bit like having an on‐demand storage vault ‘in the cloud’.

Centralized Management

Connected Backup is centrally managed using an intuitive GUI and one administrator can manage thousands of backup accounts. IT controls deployment, sets the timing for daily backup of user PCs, determines what types of files are backed up and what are excluded, sets user access and functionality and manages the network and storage impact of desktop and laptop data. If you have little or no IT resources at your company, Utility Backup can handle these tasks for you.

Patented data reduction technology enables even large backups to take place in minutes. The software provides effective PC backup and recovery, even at connection bandwidths as low as 28.8 kbps.
