TrueDelta Incremental-Forever Efficiency Object- and block-level change detection with deduplication against cloud storage, compression and source-side encryption; Backup Accelerator eliminates rescans

Unified Server, Workstation& Microsoft 365 Protection One cloud service and console protect physical servers, VMs, workstations and Microsoft 365 - no separate products, licensing tiers or backup integration

Cloud-First Architecture with Storage Included Control plane and secure cloud storage operated by N-able in ISO-certified data centers in 17 countries across five continents; nothing to host, patch or scale.

Configurable Backup Configure backups for specific data sources and targets to meet recovery requirements.

Immutable Backups Configure selected backups to be immutable (can't be deleted or altered).

Backup Verification and Testing Verifies backups (e.g., completion, accuracy, not corrupted) and enables non-disruptive restore testing (e.g., in a non-production environment).

Disaster Recovery as a Service (DRaaS) Cove BCDR: Protected physical and virtual servers fail over as running VMs in the N-able cloud; full-site or partial failover with secure networking

Application Data Consistency Ensure recovered transaction data is in sync across relevant applications.

LocalSpeedVault & Seed Loading Optional local copy on any disk or network share delivers LAN-speed backup and restore; seed loading covers large initial datasets; the cloud copy stays
