Complete enterprise backup & recovery — simplified

Enterprise data protection doesn’t have to be complicated and costly. Synology ActiveProtect combines software and hardware architectures for powerful, end-to-end cyber-resilience, while lowering complexity and total cost of ownership.

‘Set-and-forget’ backups

Monitor and manage multiple sites from a single console with built-in, automated tools for backup verification, recovery drills, and self-healing. Ensure reliable backups, minus the manual monitoring.

Robust protection for scattered data

Centralize backups to safeguard data from PCs, Macs, servers, VMs, databases, and Microsoft 365, featuring built-in immutability and airgapped protection.

Restore with flexibility

Recover data your way. Perform file-level restoration, bare-metal restoration, or leverage instant recovery with physical-to-virtual (P2V) or virtual-to-virtual (V2V) options.

Scale seamlessly

Manage up to 2,500 servers and 150,000 workloads from a single console, with options to scale out.

Integrated hardware and software. 3-2-1-1-0 backup, made easy

Traditional backup demand complex coordination of software, hardware, and manual setup for storage targets and configurations. Synology ActiveProtect simplifies the process with built-in 3-2-1-1-0 protection: a 3-2-1 strategy with 1 immutable copy and 0 errors. Experience fast backups, advanced deduplication, optimized storage, and instant recovery, all at a lower TCO.

Powerful and efficient backup performance

Reduce storage space usage by 50%

Utilize global source-side deduplication to significantly cut down on storage requirements. Minimize transmission traffic for remote backups and eliminate redundant data across multiple platforms at the server side before storing it.

Optimized hardware for backup

Storage is automatically partitioned into performance and capacity tiers to maximize efficiency. Backup metadata is cached in high-performance SSDs to accelerate backup and recovery operations.

Keep reliable backups, recover with confidence

With built-in features like automatic testing, self-healing integrity, and flexible restore options, ActiveProtect handles the complexities of backup management, so you can focus on your day to day operations.

Secure backups

Immutability with retention lock is applied to all backups by default to prevent modification of backups.

Automatic backup verification

After completing a device backup, a built-in hypervisor automatically runs a VM to verify recoverability.

Self-healing for backup integrity

Built-in checks detect data corruption, RAID repairs damaged files, and hot spares automatically handle drive failures.

Regular recovery drills, made easy

A built-in hypervisor enables restoration tests with virtual machines, ensuring recoverability without affecting the production site and meeting audit requirements.

Instantly recover data

Minimize disruptions during a disaster with flexible restore options, including instant data recovery from physical or virtual machines to VMware or Hyper-V in minutes.

Deploy and manage with ease

Simplified deployment and management

Manage up to 150,000 workloads, perform backups, and access offsite data from one platform. ActiveProtect replaces traditional backup tasks with Protection Plans, saving time and making it easy to scale. Add new endpoints effortlessly to achieve 3-2-1-1-0 backup protection.

Scalable storage without disruption

Scale quickly and easily without overhauling your existing backup infrastructure. Experience intuitive deployment and remote updates.

Comprehensive monitoring

Gain visibility into your entire backup infrastructure—primary backups, offsite backups, and archived data—across up to 2,500 sites, regardless of data location. Set up automatic notifications for critical alerts and warnings.

Built to minimize TCO

Save IT resources

Synology’s unique business model enables 2x lower total cost of ownership (TCO) compared to similar solutions. Integrated solutions minimize IT effort and cost from procurement, setup, and maintenance.

No hidden fees

Enjoy transparency with no hidden fees, no egress charges, and no additional costs for advanced features.

License free for small deployments

No software license fees are required for deployments with 3 backup servers or less. After the first three servers, each additional server incurs a one-time hardware cost plus an annual software license fee.
