How many SharePoint farms do you have in your environment? Recovery Manager Basic Edition installs locally on a SharePoint front end server and fully protects the farm to which this server belongs. You can automatically discover backups created for the content of the farm, search across multiple backups, and restore data back to its original location, or into different sites and web applications within the same farm. | Recovery Manager Premier Edition can be installed on any server in the environment and works with any number of SharePoint farms. The same management interface allows you to search for content across multiple backup files from different farms and restore data anywhere in the environment. |
How big is your SharePoint operations team? Recovery Manager fully supports both centralized administrative model and larger teams where duties are separated between several team admin members and possibly help desk personnel, typical for larger environments. Recovery Manager Basic Edition’s user interface is an easy-to-use, MMC-based management console and is ideal for organizations that use a centralized SharePoint administrative model. In addition, PowerShell Cmdlets are shipped with Recovery Manager to support customization and automation scenarios. | Recovery Manager Premier Edition ships with both the MMC-based management console for centralized administration and Recovery Manager Web Access that allows you to search for content and restore data from backups from a web browser. Web Access also allows you to delegate certain time-consuming operations to junior IT staff or help desk operators, making it ideal for larger or more distributed SharePoint management teams. PowerShell Cmdlets are also shipped with Recovery Manager to support customization and automation scenarios. |
