The ChallengeMany organizations use Microsoft® Exchange Server 2007 as their mission-critical communications tool, as it offers enormous productivity gains by enabling workplace collaboration. Given the importance of Exchange, organizations devote significant amounts of storage capacity and management resources to this critical application. Even so, many IT groups still struggle with Exchange scalability, complex granular recoveries, infrequent or extended backups, and unrealized disaster recovery plans.
