After examining a number of options, ECOM chose the FilesX Xpress Restore[R] data protection and recovery solution. Based on FilesX' proven adaptive data protection technology, Xpress Restore is the first truly continuous, "lights-out" solution for remote offices. It encapsulates the mechanisms to accommodate continuous protection as well as frequent and scheduled backup scenarios, and is equipped with advanced recovery tools for mission critical applications.

ECOM has installed Xpress Restore to support individual servers and to replicate remote data to central sites for disaster recovery and failover. The company continues to roll out Express Restore in its operations. The use of Xpress Restore adds local data protection capability to the field offices.

"Each installation extends our protection level and gives us more confidence that our critical data will be recoverable in the event of a problem," said Zandi. "At our pace of growth in the commodity business, data protection is fundamental."
