Paragon VM Backup 7.2.2016.0 for ESX
Paragon VM Backup (Virtual Machine Backup) is a backup and disaster recovery software for ESX. This backup solution for VMware environments allows server administrators to create secure copies of their virtual machines.
Small organizations can make a good start with VMware vSphere Essentials Kit. With a license covering six CPUs, you get the industry-leading virtualization platform that will suit most of your IT needs at a very affordable price.
The basic license, however, doesn’t include vMotion, High Availability, Data Protection and Replication and other VMware components. This stands in the way of ensuring business continuity, recoverability from errors, and resumption of operations in case of malfunctions or disaster. Note that, most third-party BC/DR software entirely relies on these components as well.
Paragon VM Backup can make a good use of these components too, but it still does its job well while running on bare minimum VMware setups. You don’t need vSphere Essentials Plus Kit or Operations Management Acceleration Kit, let alone enterprise-class solutions.
