File Protection
Datto File Protection is a secure and scalable file and folder backup service that is designed to efficiently protect SMBs and recover data across devices such as workstations, laptops, and file servers. Without access to a simple, automated and fully monitored business-grade backup solution, the result is often an unreliable, partial, or non-existent backup of mission-critical files. This makes the probability of losing critical business files and impacting productivity a real possibility. And with ransomware so prominent in today’s world, it’s not a matter of if you will be impacted, it’s when.
Simple, Secure Endpoint Backup and RecoveryContinuous file and folder backup protects mission-critical business documents against ever-present threats such as human error, hardware failure, ransomware, and lost or stolen devices. With the ability to backup over any internet connection, it protects users’ valuable business data wherever they are, whether they’re in the office or on the move. Six months of versioning protects against accidental deletion and ensures corrupted data can be recovered by users, or with the assistance of their administrator or service provider.
Powerful, granular policies combined with remote deployment and monitoring features allow for easy, centralized management, whether by a team administrator or your service provider.
Intuitive design means users can easily and quickly access and restore their own files, enabling them to recover from common data loss scenarios such as accidental deletion without raising a support request. Additionally, service providers and administrators can securely restore data on behalf of the user.
