Macrium Site Manager

When you are managing multiple computers from a network, you need to make sure the software you use can support all the functions you require. Macrium Site Manager is one of these tools.

The software solution comes with a comprehensive dashboard that allows you to view details about your managed computers, all in a single glance.

You can choose the type of notifications that should be shown in this dashboard, as follows: start, fail or success of backup, empty queue, failed job, and so on.

In order to enjoy all the features provided by Macrium Site Manager, you first need to add the computers you are keeping an eye on. You can scan the network, add the computers by domain or manually (by entering the NetBIOS name), or you can scan for those that are currently attempting to connect to your server.

You need to keep in mind that an agent app needs to be installed in all the computers you are interested in, to ensure successful connection.

In order to automate the remote backup processes for your computers, you can set up schedules. You can start by selecting the type of backup you are interested in, full, differential or incremental, set the date and the frequency (daily, weekly, or monthly), then specify the exact time. Also, you can choose how many old backups should be preserved.

When it comes to offline computers, you can either defer backups until the device comes online, or you can send Wake on LAN messages before backup.

The final step for creating backups is to choose the target repository. Macrium Site Manager supports network shared, Amazon AWS Storage Gateway, Azure shares or local repositories.

Macrium Site Manager is a comprehensive solution for those who want to make sure their remote data is safe by creating regular backups.
