CA has announced that it is offering an extended live trial of its CA XOsoft disaster recovery software to help US companies with data centers in hurricane-vulnerable states protect critical business information. The extended trial, offered until October 15th, can be used for the balance of the hurricane season, until December 1st.

“This has been a tough hurricane season, and with two more months to go, customers without DR software are looking for a way to implement protection fast,” said Frank Jablonski, senior director, product marketing for Recovery Management at CA. “That’s why we are offering a free, extended trial—to provide them with a fast, easy way to implement a solution now because they don’t have to go through their procurement process and CA XOsoft doesn’t require any planned downtime to install.”

During the extended trial, customers can also leverage another important component of CA’s DR solution, CA’s DR testing option, which verifies the functionality of the replicated data without impacting business operations or placing the data at risk. Current customers use this distinctive capability to ensure their DR plan will work before a disaster actually strikes.

Companies with offices in eligible states can sign up for the standard 14-day trial and then call 1-800-576-9727 by October 15th to get the extension. They can call the same toll-free number for more information on the offer.
