Alpharetta, GA – September 18, 2021 — /BackupReview.info/ — MDT Software, a world leader in change management solutions for automated manufacturing assets, today announced the release of the AutoSave Image Backup module. This module validates, schedules, and provides revision control for image files, created by Acronis, for rapid disaster recovery.

In combining the AutoSave and Acronis products, users can store their customizable PC data. With a common central repository of PC images, MDT AutoSave and Acronis can ensure that if a PC fails, the master image and other archived revisions of the hard drive data can be quickly retrieved.

Solution steps include:

– User initiates a backup through the AutoSave module – AutoSave can schedule the backups, through Acronis, to eliminate any concern of backing up the device during production, i.e., HMI.

– AutoSave connects with Acronis Cyber Backup on the device.

– Acronis creates a backup image of the data, which is then saved to a designated network location.

– AutoSave confirms success/failure of the Acronis image backup.

– AutoSave captures comments on the new image/version.

– AutoSave saves the metadata on prior revisions, not just the most recent image.

“MDT is excited to add the Acronis Image Backup module to the MDT AutoSave suite as it extends our traditional automation device backup and disaster recovery capabilities to leverage the world-class PC imaging and recovery solution from Acronis,” said Gary Gillespie, MDT Software President. “This gives customers the assurance that their automation devices and workstations on the plant floor are protected by a comprehensive backup and recovery solution.”

MDT and Acronis make it easy for our customers to recover from any event – from restoring a lost program back to its current copy, to recovering a full system to new hardware. Acronis is thrilled to be partnering with another top performer in the automation industry to protect our customer from modern threats.”
