Or, since files and folders for system backups are stored natively, you can simply drag and drop them. Restoring your data is as easy as selecting a system or app from the console, browsing its backups and choosing what you want to recover. For Office 365 and Exchange Web Services, you can export mailboxes as EML, ICS and VCF files, but you'll need the Iperius software installed on the Exchange host to enable block-level image backups of all mailboxes. Securing our Exchange 2013 system was more involved, as remote access permissions needed sorting first - but Iperius' excellent online tutorial got us quickly logged in, allowing us to view all mailboxes and export them as individual PSTs. You can even set up VM replication to another VMware host for instant disaster recovery. After providing our VMware ESXi 6.7 host credentials, we could view its VMs and choose from basic VM copies, a full backup partnered by ongoing incrementals, or differential backups using change block tracking (CBT). VMware VM backups are even easier as nothing extra is required on the host. Just note that for block-level backups you'll need a copy of the software installed on the host. It was just as easy to back up Hyper-V VMs after we entered our host's credentials, the console presented a list of its VMs, from which we configured hot backups with no fuss. In addition to the various cloud services mentioned above, backups can also be written to local storage, network locations such as a NAS, tape drives or FTP/SFTP servers. Installing the software on a Windows Server 2019 host took us only a minute, and setting up our first backup job was nicely handled by a wizard, which stepped us through choosing a source, destination and backup strategy, scheduling it and then optionally adding a task to run before and after the backup. It can also be accessed on the move, using Iperius' free iOS and Android apps. You'll need to pay a little extra for the optional remote web console too - but at 34 per year this is hardly expensive, and it's a worthwhile add-on, allowing you to monitor 20 installations, with statistical views and facilities to remotely run backups or set schedules.
