Retrospect

Protecting 100 Petabytes in over 500,000 homes and businesses in over 100 countries, Retrospect is dedicated to providing reliable backup and recovery tools for professionals and small-to-midsize businesses with Retrospect Backup and Retrospect Virtual, covering physical servers and endpoints, virtual environments, and business applications.

Retrospect Backup

Retrospect has been protecting data since 1989, starting as Dantz Development. We were acquired by EMC in 2004, and seven years later, we were spun off again as Retrospect, Inc. In June 2019, we joined Drobo and Nexsan as a subsidiary of StorCentric. We remain the same Engineering, Sales, and Support teams that our customers rely on.

Complete Data Protection

Retrospect Backup provides complete protection with backup, archive, and duplicate features built-in, flexible scheduling, endpoint protection, cloud backup, block-level incremental backup, email protection, and stellar support.

9-Minute Backup

Retrospect Backup can perform an incremental backup of your entire system in under ten minutes, including a complete snapshot of your file structure for a perfect restore. It’s one of the fastest backups on the market.

Every Major Platform

Retrospect Backup provides protection for every major platform with the support for the latest versions as well as versions from a decade ago–from Microsoft Windows Vista to Windows 10 October 2018 Update, Windows Server 2003 to Windows Server 2019, and Apple OS X Snow Leopard (10.6) to macOS Big Sur as well as Linux, VMare, Hyper-V, SQL, Exchange, and IMAP.

Cloud Backup

Retrospect supports more than twenty cloud storage providers, all seamlessly integrated with zero-knowledge security and no lock-in for fast, affordable, offsite protection in your 3-2-1 Backup Rule.

Remote Management

You can monitor your entire backup infrastructure in a single pane of glass with the Retrospect Management Console–on your computer or on your phone, even outside the corporate network.

Remote Backup

Enabling remote backup requires minimal configuration on the server-side network and no changes for the remote employee’s network, and it supports proactive scripts–with ProactiveAI–for backup when employees are online and on-demand restore for employees to get files back without assistance.

ProactiveAI

With ProactiveAI, backup scripts will optimize the backup window for the entire environment to ensure every source is protected as often as possible for an optimal RPO strategy.

Email Protection

The best protection against data loss is a backup, and email is no different. Customers can use Retrospect to back up their email accounts to a local or cloud destination, and they can restore a lost email or account with a couple clicks.

Block-Level Incremental Backup (BLIB)

With block level incremental backup (BLIB), you can significantly reduce your backup time and network usage when protecting certain common large files with up to 90% savings in some cases.

Virtual Protection

Retrospect Virtual enables you to protect your VMware and Hyper-V environments with a single console.
