Open File Add-On
By enhancing the functionality of NTBackup, the standard license of BackupAssist is able to backup all files that are not exclusively locked on Windows NT, 2000, XP, 2003 and SBS. This method is also utilized for backing up data on network shares, where snapshot technology cannot be applied. Both Snapshot technology and Conventional File Copy can be used together with BackupAssist to ensure that you have complete open file data protection. The two technologies act to cover the range of open file backup requirements that small and medium businesses may have, as well even supporting more larger enterprise organizations

Tape Drive support for Server 2008
Microsoft has left tape drive support out of their new release Windows operating systems, but this is no indication that tape is no longer useful as a backup media. Rather, Microsoft’s decision was a by-product of their attempt to divert focus away from data backup to imaging for server recovery, which had always been a sore point in their operating systems. This move has left a void in data backup and long term data retention.
Even today, tape is still considered the most reliable and cost-effective option for long-term data retention and archiving. A 2008 study showed that storing 1TB of data on disk cost 23 times more and used 290 times more energy, than storing it on tape, with other studies confirming much the same. Being able to store data for periods of longer than seven years is vital to most companies, because of the legal compliance laws and regulations with regard to business data retention in most Western countries.
What’s more, according to the tape manufacturers, there has been no apparent decrease in tape sales in the last few years since Microsoft released Server 2008, SBS 2008, Windows Vista and Windows 7 without NTBackup included. And during this time, tape manufacturers have continued to improve the data transfer speeds, durability and storability of tape, which indicates they anticipate tape will be around for quite some time to come.
