Backup + Restore

Quickly respond when data loss strikes

Continuous backup

Back up data 96x a day so you’re always ready to recover files when needed. A real-time file watcher looks for new files and file updates, and backs up changes every 15 minutes by default.

Prioritized file backup

Protect your most important files—what you’re working on right now. Code42 backs up files in the following order 1) newer, smaller files 2) newer, larger files, 3) older, smaller files, 4) older, larger files.

Non-disruptive

Set CPU allowances for when users are present and away from devices. Configure backup to stop when a laptop reaches a set percent of remaining battery power. Set bandwidth limits by network type, location or peak/off-peak work hours.

Fast data recovery

Source-side deduplication allows you to restore data 2-9x faster than with other backup solutions.

Foolproof data recovery

Recover previous file versions and even deleted files.

Flexible

Restore files to their original location, to downloads, or to a new location. Select files for restore by any date, time or version. Recover files through self-service restores or remote, admin restores.

Self-healing archives

Regular archive maintenance takes place to validate the health of the backup and check for data corruption. If archive maintenance finds bad blocks of data, the destination self-heals the archive by re-requesting the affected data blocks from the source device.

Foundational data protection

File protection is just the beginning.

Data migration. When every file is automatically and continuously backed up and made available for recovery, you’ll be ready for ransomware, tech refresh, and device replacements.
File preservation. With an application already running on every device, you can perform a preserve-in-place legal hold with a few easy clicks.

“One of the biggest benefits of having Code42 is the fact that we’re no longer at risk of data loss, which leads to lost time, money, and faith in our company.”

Eddie Anderson IT Service Desk Technician

“We use Code42 regularly for hardware and OS migrations. Many upgrades like Windows 10 require a new install and may also require new hardware, and Code42 makes the data portion of that migration easy.”

Adonis Prasad Systems Administrator

“Anytime a user needs a new laptop (due to loss, upgrade, or other event) we use Code42 to migrate data to the new laptop. With the ability to monitor data completeness and act when things are not up-to-date, we have greatly reduced the chance of missing user data for those migration cases.”
