"We find occasions where someone has deleted data
accidentally or dropped an index, etc., and with SQL
Virtual Restore we can mount last night's backup quickly
and easily to get access to the data or the original
schema. It even works with all our backups being
encrypted. This takes any extra load off our production
server. SQL Virtual Restore is a great product."
