Recovery Manager for SharePoint Backup

Enterprise Backup and Recovery for Microsoft SharePoint

Quest Recovery Manager for SharePoint enables you to easily backup SharePoint as well as granular and disaster-level recovery of data. Among the benefits:

  • Saves money by automatically scheduling native backups of SQL and SharePoint configuration and content databases as well as working with third-party backups you already have; no additional backups are required!
  • Ensures productivity anytime by restoring all information stored in the databases for SharePoint backup, including alerts, permissions, workflow state and associations, metadata, custom views, Web Part links and farm services, and configuration settings; you can restore data back to the original or a new SharePoint site or save it to your desktop even when SharePoint is not available.
  • Saves time by letting you easily search, locate and preview any items from across multiple database SharePoint backups and recycle bins before restoring them; you also have a web-based console to delegate search and restore options.

Features

  • No New Backups – Use your existing backups to find the data you need. Recovery Manager integrates with SQL and SharePoint native backups as well as Quest LiteSpeed for SQL and other third-party backups, indexing and searching these backups to simplify and speed data restores. Third-party backups include IBM Tivoli Storage Manager for Databases, Symantec Veritas NetBackup, Symantec Backup Exec, HP DataProtector, Quest LiteSpeed for SQL Server, Microsoft System Center Data Protection Manager and BakBone NetVault Backups and vRanger Backup and Replication.
  • Sure Scheduling – Ensure you always have the backups you need when you need them. Recovery Manager allows you to schedule full farm, native SQL and SharePoint backups directly within the tool. If you use Quest LiteSpeed Engine, Recovery Manager automatically utilizes LiteSpeed Engine with no configuration to create faster backups.
  • Automatic Discovery of Backups - Discover all backups automatically with Recovery Manager.
  • Granular Restore Options - Choose to restore just one document or item, or the entire list, library, site, site collection or farm.  You can even choose to restore all the previous versions or just one particular version of a document.
  • Fast Find – Save time searching for and through existing backups to get the data you need.  Recovery Manager automatically discovers and indexes your existing backups as they are created, enabling you to locate missing items regardless of location.
  • Exact Restores – Meet user expectations quickly and save time by getting the right data the first time.  Recovery Manager lets you preview documents before restoring them, as well as compare documents across multiple backups to ensure you recover exactly what your users need.
  • Access Anytime – Recovery Manager can recover data wherever you need it, even if SharePoint is down.
  • Recover All – Gain peace of mind knowing your data and your SharePoint configurations are safe even when the worst happens. Recovery Manager offers disaster level restores of farm content, services and configuration settings.
  • Complete Restores – Improve your help desk satisfaction survey scores by faithfully restoring document permissions and version history so users have confidence in the data restored.
