PiXiE Is Here!

What is PiXiE?

PiXiE is a small server designed to back up (and recover) workstations in a network. What makes it different from other backup solutions (such as web-based backup solutions) is the type of backup that it does. 

Rather than grabbing individual files and folders for backups, PiXiE puts the computer into a special mode and images the entire hard drive. This makes replacing a hard drive and restoring the workstation a very straightforward (and much faster) process. Because of this image process, PiXiE is not well suited for restoring individual files; we recommend using one of the many web-based utilities for that.

Situations where PiXiE is the backup of choice:

• The hard drive crashed
• You receive the "Blue Screen of Death"
• A virus has left the computer unusable
• Updates or settings changes have caused the system to not function
• You need to create several machines with the exact same software and settings (assuming you are licensed for all of the software)

In all of these scenarios, whether you are overwriting the existing drive or putting an entirely new drive in the system, PiXiE can restore the computer to its last backup - fully functional, ready to go back to work - in a fraction of the time required to re-install the operating system and software, do updates, and configure settings.
