I recently chatted with a GWAVA customer outside the United States about their hardware failing on a GroupWise Post Office that was nearly 200GB in size and how Reload saved the day. I'm being slightly vague on the details because we are working on getting the story published and I don't want to steal my own thunder...BUT...the story is too good to not say something.

Reload from GWAVA has been referred to as the Holy Grail of GroupWise. The reason it is called the Holy Grail is due to the unique architecture of GroupWise. Due to its method of storing and retrieving email messages, it makes it hard for GroupWise to recover a single message or an entire post office in an easy, quick way. Also, due to the vast number of files involved, traditional backup software struggles to handle the constant usage of GroupWise to secure a clean back up of the post office.

Reload is called the Holy Grail of GroupWise because it allows you to instantly recover a deleted item from your mailbox...AND...it allows an IT administrator to use their existing Tape backup system to easily, quickly, and with near perfection, back up and restore a GroupWise system of any size.

This isn't the place for me to go into technical details, but let me say that Reload is fast becoming GWAVA's most successful product ever.

You can check out more of the product at http://reload.gwava.com for demos by Tay Kratzer as well as http://www.gwava.com/reload for marketing material.

And that disaster that Reload averted. Watch this space for the upcoming story.
