Why LevelView?

10 Reasons LevelView is the Right Choice

  1. Ease of Installation
    The LevelView installation process is simple.  In addition, LevelView provides comprehensive documentation and support for users and administrators.
  2. Automatic Offsite Electronic Data Storage
    LevelView uses your current Internet connection to automatically transfer data offsite. Your data is then securely off-premises in the LevelView Data Centers.   You can schedule your back ups after hours and be emailed confirmation after every back up completes!
  3. Recovery Where You Want It—When You Want It
    If you experience a site disaster, data loss– or you just need to restore data to a different location – all you have to do is log on to the Web interface, select the files you want to restore and specify the location.
    The restore process begins automatically!
  4. Security For Your Data
    At the LevelView secure offsite location, your data is safe. LevelView encrypts all of your data before, during and after it is transmitted over the Internet so only authorized users with the correct keys can decrypt it.
    Even the LevelView staff cannot access your data.
  5. LevelView is a Complete Solution Requiring No Tapes or New Hardware
    Data protection is not a single activity or one-time event, but a flow of interconnected processes.
    LevelView delivers a complete solution:
                • Fast data back up
                • Automatic and immediate transmission to an offsite location
                • Archive creation
                • Immediate recovery
    LevelView addresses the data protection workflow, while reducing associated time, workload and cost.
  6. Immediate Restoration of Data
    Businesses rely on electronic data: 
    Payroll→Student/Employee Records→Inventory→ e-mail
    When disaster strikes, you don’t have time to wait hours or days to restore your data.
               
    Flow of attempted tape back up restoration :
    • SERVER CRASHES or data is lost and panic ensues
    • RETRIEVE the tapes from the offsite location
    • FIND the right tapes
    • SEARCH for the required files on the tapes
    • COMPILE the full and incremental back ups
    • ATTEMPT to do a proper restoration and hope the data restores.
    LevelView securely stores your data offsite by backing it up to disk over the Internet, you not only have the security of data that’s safely residing off site, you also can restore that data effortlessly.
    LevelView  enables you recover data in minutes.
  7. New and Impending Regulations
    Today there are ever-changing regulations governing data protection and retention periods. For example, in a School District, student information is confidential; BUT WHAT IF a staff member puts the back up tape in their car and decides to stop at the store on the way home?
    The confidential information is exposed to theft or damage!
    Similarly, certain records must be retained for mandated time periods.  If you can’t recover those records, you can be liable.
    With LevelView, you stay ahead of the game. LevelView enables you to automatically get your data offsite to a secure facility – a requirement for many industries. As privacy and records retention regulations take effect, LevelView offers the protection that tape never can.
  8. IT Time Savings
    The hours your Staff saves on back up and recovery could be better spent on more strategic initiatives that add greater value to your bottom line. With LevelView you can standardize the back up process across multiple locations without tying up staff time at each remote site!
    The Reality → Tape back up and recovery is a time-consuming, tedious chore.
    Businesses know they must protect their data, but they also have other many areas of daily focus.  Instead of tying up an hour of a Technology Staff Member’s time each evening to attempt back up, and still more time in the morning reviewing logs and troubleshooting, LevelView works on autopilot using your existing bandwidth.
  9. Know your Data is Backed up
    LevelView sends you a confirmation email after every back up.  If by chance the data does not back up properly, you also receive an email alerting you that the back up needs to cycle again.  Confirmations can be sent to several staff members so everyone is aware of the current back up status.  Also, LevelView has a web interface so approved administrators can view, edit and manage the back up schedules, back up sets and partial or full restorations!
  10. TAPE JUST DOES NOT WORK!
    LevelView eliminates onsite tape-based back up by automating the back up process.  LevelView replaces tapes with more reliable disk media, and uses your Internet connection to securely move your backed up data to a safe, offsite   location. Businesses still using tape-based back up are flipping a coin with their data.
    How successful will your data restoration be if your District suffers a server crash or disaster?

Heads – you get your data back.
Tails – YOU LOSE.
