PST backup, as part of a laptop backup or desktop backup program, has a host of challenges that make it extremely difficult to successfully move changes from a user's PST file to secure backup storage on a continuous basis. Some of the reasons include:
- Users may disconnect during a scheduled backup that is processing a PST file.
- A PST file by nature is generally large and changes a lot, creating larger volumes than most other file types and therefore can impact bandwidth adversely.
- PST file backup also requires open file processing which may drain resources on the PC when the user is working.
- Users have the ability to save them wherever they want, which may be outside the configured backup selection.
With Copiun, the backup of PST files can be accomplished near continuously, even across an enterprise of thousands of users.

PST File Auto-Detect - Through the Copiun Data Manager interface, policies can be configured to ensure PST file backup wherever a user may put them.
Bookmark Restart - Should a PST backup be interrupted,the next backup will pickup where it left off.
Minimum Storage - Aside from system files, PST files offer the greatest chance of duplicate data across user PCs. Copiun can reduce this data up to 95%.
Secure Mobile User Access -With Copiun, advanced access technology eliminates the need for a VPN and offers secure backup even over public WiFi.
Minimum Bandwidth Impact - Because deduplication starts at the source, much of the data is already stored. Thousands of users can backup near continuously without choking bandwidth.
