Neverfail - Continuous Availability Suite
License Price: US$ 2,490.00
Introduction
Neverfail occupies a niche that is not yet being served well by larger vendors, namely the supply of affordable HA and DR systems for small to mid-sized enterprises (SMEs) or for departmental use in large companies. The need for such systems among SMEs has grown as applications such as email have become critical to business operations, and outages have become increasingly painful.
Features and benefits
Neverfail’s software is a fully integrated, storage-agnostic, single-vendor product that can be installed in as little as one day, and is tailored to implement best practices for a range of applications, for both virtual and physical servers.
