EMC VisualSRM™ SMB Edition

EMC VisualSRM™ SMB Edition storage management software enables small and medium businesses to stay ahead of data growth and rein in costs while meeting their business needs. It provides a central location for monitoring storage usage and setting automated management policies to ensure that storage is being used optimally and is always available for critical servers. It provides a clear picture of storage consumption by computers, applications, and users. Create policies to control storage usage. When a storage limit is reached, EMC VisualSRM SMB Edition sends notification or automatically deletes, moves, or compresses files to free storage.
