QuorumSoft Introduces "Scale on Demand" Citrix XenServer Backup and Disaster Recovery
Alike(TM) v2.1 boosts backup speeds 8X and delivers other performance improvements while minimizing storage and bandwidth costs
BURLINGTON, Vt., Sept. 7, 2011 /PRNewswire/ --QuorumSoft, a world leading provider of deduplicating archival solutions for virtualized environments, today announced the general availability of Alike(TM) Version 2.1, a new generation solution for Citrix XenServer backup and disaster recovery.
