IDrive® BMR Pro: Best for on-site data backups -Madeline Clarke, December 6, 2023
Onsite Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery (BCDR) with cloud replication
Perform image-based backup of your computers, local servers, and virtual machines to a local device equipped with bare metal restore functionality. IDrive BMR enables you to backup the entire data stored in the hard disk; including the operating system (OS), application configurations and network drives. Granular restore options allow you to choose to restore the entire system, individual folders/files, or spin up a virtual instance for business continuity in the event of data failure. IDrive BMR can even create and host network shares on your local IDrive BMR device.
With IDrive BMR you can replicate the data on your local device to your IDrive cloud account and manage them via browser-based access. Your local and cloud data is secured from unauthorized access with AES-256 CCM encryption!
Secure your data from ransomware!
Get protection against ransomware that encrypts endpoint devices, blocks data access, and threatens to delete data permanently! IDrive BMR maintains snapshot backups and allows point-in-time version recovery to mitigate such takeovers and cyber attacks.
Best defense against ransomware; powered with robust AMD/Intel hardware
Device Storage: 2 TB, 4 TB and 7.5 TB SATA SSD

Pre-defined hardware models with limited hardware and processor options |
|
Backup configuration |
Automatically discovers the computer via the backup agent and applies global backup settings |
Every computer has to be manually paired to the server and the backup configurations need to be set up individually |
|
Backup unlimited computers |
No licensing per computer |
License-based plans allow you to backup only limited computers |
|
Backup unlimited ESXi hosts / vCenter servers |
No licensing per virtual machine |
License-based plans allow you to backup only limited VMs; each VM added for backup from VMware server is charged |
|
VMware backup |
Intuitive flow for agentless backup and configuration of ESXi and vCenter VMs. Supports easy backup configuration of multiple VMs and VMware servers |
VMware backup configuration is a time-consuming process that requires the manual addition of every single VM and setting up the backup |
|
Virtualization platform |
Upload OS recovery ISO, which can be used to boot up the VM and fix boot issues |
Doesn't support upload of recovery ISO to resolve VM boot issues |
|
WinRE recovery |
Perform WinRE restore with a variety of tools, which are reliable and faster than Linux-based restore |
You can only perform Linux-based ISO restore |
|
Free cloud storage |
Free cloud storage space matching the device size; for instance, for a 8 TB plan, you get 8 TB of cloud space |
Cloud storage starts at $150/TB/month |
|
Cost-effective |
Best in terms of hardware specification, cloud storage, and unlimited licenses |
Costs higher for limited licenses, storage, and hardware |

"We manage dental offices in San Diego and rely on the IDrive BMR to backup and protect my clients from ransomware. I have had to rely on their virtualization and recovery several times over the last three years have been successful every time. One client was attacked by ransomware and we were able to recover all data from the backup, while running on the virtual machine. We have used other BMR solutions and find the IDrive BMR the most reliable and cost effective solution on the market."
"I have installed four units in the last two months and we are very happy with the product."
"The IDrive BMR service has been outstanding. The prices are hard to beat, the appliances have been very reliable & easy to setup, and the IDrive customer support has been top-notch & rarely needed. I highly recommend the service to anyone in the market for a Bare Metal Recovery disaster solution."
* This feature is available with IDrive BMR version 7.0.0 and above.
† 30% faster incremental backup and cloud replication were observed based on internal testing in comparison to our competitors.
# Compression is enabled by default and ensures high storage efficiency. Deduplication is disabled by default to mitigate high CPU/memory usage in environments with large datasets and can be enabled on request.
