Unitrends Helix

 


Overview

Solve the Most Common Backup Issues with Zero Effort

Helix is an intelligent SaaS remediation platform laser focused on eliminating manual tasks that IT admins hate performing. Troubleshooting environmental issues that impact backups wastes valuable time. Helix is designed to identify and fix the most common backup problems, without you having to lift a finger.

Built to Evolve with Your Demands

The first version of Helix targets issues within a protected guest operating system, such as disk space issues, network connectivity problems, and the many things that can go wrong with Volume Shadow Copy Services (VSS). These services are critical for data protection – but are also the most commonly reported root causes of backup and recovery failures. Helix monitors these conditions and remediates them proactively to save you from spending time analyzing logs and calling support. Future versions of Helix will be enhanced to intelligently increase Recovery Point Objectives (RPOs) and automate recoveries after certain failure conditions.


Next-Level Reliability for Backups

IT can get bogged down with monitoring, detecting and remediating conditions that impact backup. These are time-consuming tasks that prevent other projects from getting done. Unitrends Helix is here to change all that.

How Helix Works

Once a new failure condition is added to the Helix platform, it updates all customer environments to look for it.
