Compression further improves the efficiency of Asigra by reducing the amount of data sent over the internet. This not only increases the speed of backup processes but it also reduces the backup window, meaning that backups finish more quickly.

The reduced the amount of traffic used by Asigra minimises disruption to any other process that uses the internet. This is particularly beneficial if there is a requirement for backups to be ran during the day, when users have priority of internet use.
