It's the first product I've seen that integrates all the applications I need to manage my storage environment. The Enterprise version is aimed at large data centers supporting client-server networks. It offers redundancy features which eliminate single points of failure and RSA encryption which allows users to guard against unauthorized use of data on removable media.
Optional support is available for robotic tape libraries and large silos.
The Workgroup version is ideal for departmental networks and offers increased reliability and ease of use. In a workgroup setting, the system administrator typically wears other hats and welcomes tools that enhance productivity. StorageCenter's GUI eliminates the need to create and edit complicated backup scripts. StorageCenter also offers tape labeling that makes it impossible to accidentally overwrite an unexpired backup volume. In addition, integrated file archiving ends the administrator's dilemma of full disks cluttered with aging and unwanted files.
