Strengthen cyber resilience with integrated server backup software
Small and mid-sized businesses are often the most targeted and least prepared to defend against threats to their data. When ransomware encrypts your servers or a hardware failure takes a system offline, your ability to recover depends entirely on what you backed up and how fast you can restore it.
A lot of server backup solutions claim to speed recovery but true cyber resilience requires more than fast restores. It needs server cloud backup and cybersecurity tools to work together to detect threats, contain damage, and recover data.
Why choose OpenText Server Backup ― Public Cloud
This simple server backup solution uses public cloud storage to control costs while creating an easier path to achieving cyber resilience for small businesses. By integrating server backup and cybersecurity management into a single platform, we do more than backup data. We help you build a defense that works end-to-end across your security and data protection infrastructure.
Recover critical servers faster
Protect server data from ransomware, natural disasters, hardware failure, and more. Immutable backups prevent tampering and granular recovery lets you restore only what you need.
Improve cyber resilience
Detect, prevent, and recover from cyberattacks by managing server backup and cybersecurity together. OpenText Secure Cloud and an integrated device management console make it possible.
Controlled cloud storage costs
Back up to your existing public cloud storage and use intelligent tiering to automatically move less accessed data to cheaper tiers. Or choose OpenText-hosted storage for more predictable costs without the proprietary lock-in. Either way, there’s no appliance expenses or manual update cycles.
Streamlined operations
Our single management console for security and backups streamlines day-to-day operations and cuts time spent switching between platforms. Wizard-driven setup gets you from signup to first backup in as little as 10 minutes.

OpenText Server Backup is built for organizations with advanced infrastructure requirements, hybrid environments, or more specific configuration needs.
How server cloud backup works
Getting started with OpenText Server Backup ― Public Cloud doesn’t require an intensive project plan. Simply choose your storage by connecting to your existing public cloud storage account or select one of eight OpenText hosted storage regions and you’re ready to go.
Use our guided installer to quickly deploy backup agents to your servers. Then easily configure your backup schedule and retention policies. After an initial full backup, we only capture incremental changes to data, saving time and storage needs. Data is immutable in the platform and automatically replicated across three availability zones for 99.99999999999% durability.
When you need to recover, go to the same console you use to manage your security tools with OpenText Secure Cloud. Restore a specific file, folder, or an entire server directly from the cloud, with no on-premises infrastructure to maintain.
