The new product offering for Salesforce.com, the world's largest provider of customer relationship management (CRM) software, represents the first step in Spanning's product line expansion plans to provide backup and recovery of critical data in the top cloud-based business applications.
"Spanning is focused on providing leading-edge backup and recovery solutions for the most significant cloud applications. As the titan of enterprise cloud computing apps, Salesforce is a logical next step for us," said Jeff Erramouspe, CEO and president, Spanning. "Salesforce is storing unfathomably large amounts of critical data - our backup and recovery solution ensures organizations are now fully protected from data mishaps and losses."
Spanning Backup for Salesforce will be the first and only backup solution embedded in the Salesforce user interface, allowing users to review their backup and recovery information in-app without ever having to leave Salesforce. Additionally, this unique integration with Salesforce allows Spanning Backup to share key backup and recovery activities directly into the Chatter newsfeeds.
"As organizations move core business functions to cloud applications like Salesforce, they are struggling to apply traditional backup and recovery methods, leading them to look for emerging solutions like Spanning Backup for Salesforce. We see independent data protection of cloud-based services as a critical component of any organization's data protection strategy," said George Crump, president and founder, Storage Switzerland, an analyst firm covering storage, cloud and virtualization markets.
Salesforce manages the critical corporate data, including customer details, sales, marketing and financials, for more than 100,000 organizations. With Spanning Backup for Salesforce providing automated daily backups, Salesforce customers now have a trusted, reliable and consistent way to protect critical data, files and customizations. Additionally, the new solution allows users to rapidly recover lost data from any previous backup. Key capabilities in Spanning Backup for Salesforce designed to reduce the administrative burden and cost of manually backing up critical CRM data include:
-- Automated daily backups: Improves backup reliability and reduces the time it takes administrators to manage the backup process.
-- Point-in-time data recovery: Simplifies the recovery of lost data making it easier to find previous versions of data.
