Challenge with Tapes
Legacy Devices
You need to retain old data typically 15-20 years. Over time, tape technologies have been evolving and the backups are retained on old legacy devices. It is difficult to maintain the working units of these legacy devices and inventory of tapes on which these backup are stored.
Data Availability
Tape media have never been too reliable. Media handling, dust & moisture are some of the key factors that reduce the life of the media. You are never sure if you would be actually able to recover the data when required despite managing the entire infrastructure and spending a huge amount of money on it.
Compliance
The tapes are retained for the compliance and regulatory needs. Backups retained on the old technology tapes pose a threat of unsuccessful recoveries when audit needs come up. Most organizations need to arrange old drives & software to achieve their audit success.

It took that headache out of everyone's minds and certainly mine that I knew that I had someone I could catch hold of one-point person for backup which I didn't have earlier. It would not be anyone's fault if something went wrong and with ACEDATA with their commitment to the whole backup process. I have my data safe off site and the biggest advantage the benefit that we have derived is peace of mind. Give it a spin for sure. Don't think it won't work for you. It works. “"
