Data Back up and Recovery, Disaster Recovery

We all get car insurance without thinking - and yet if we crash our car - it can be fixed or replaced. What would happen if you lost all your emails? All your financial records? What would happen if you lost your MYOB or Quicken or QuickBooks database? Over 60% of companies who experience such loss are out of business within 6 months. Why? Because most people don't backup properly - either because it takes too much time and effort, or the systems required cost too much. For those businesses that do backup - the backup is usually inadequate - rarely done daily, and rarely taken offsite.

Our Online Backup was born to fix all that. Now small businesses and consumers can take advantage of IT-best-practice long used by major companies to make sure they never lose an important document again.

Our Solution Big-Business IT best-practice for SME/SMB – true multi-destination, multi-schedule backup that can be adapted to meet your needs but at consumer prices. SOS is software as a service billed with a low monthly subscription. A basic annual subscription costs less than most stand-alone backup software packages – let alone a tape-drive or external hard-drive.

It gives you the flexibility and power to create a backup that meet your needs. Backup your Outlook daily up to 6 global datacenters. Backup your entire computer to a USB drive nightly or backup My Documents to your iPod each hour or engage Live Protect™ to watch your files and provide continuous real-time data protection. You save it – we back it up offsite invisibly and automatically, keeping an unlimited version history that lets you roll-back to any point in time.

The service provides data-protection for customers, whether they are SMEs, SOHOs, professionals at home, students, or anyone with electronic files to be protected from data-loss. It brings big-business IT-best-practice to small businesses and consumers.

Your Data will be safe – Safe Off Site
The service is delivered through a software program (the SOS Windows Client) installed on the end-user’s computer. The user then tells the program what files to protect, and each night, at a configured time, (or instantaneously at the option of the user) it backs up any files that have changed since the previous backup. Files are backed up to a global network of datacenters powered by the proprietary Server and InfiniScale™ technologies. Data is compressed using proprietary ShrinkRAP™ delta compression that ensures that only the changes made to files are sent over the network – dramatically reducing bandwidth consumption.

This stands in contrast to most online backup systems, which re-transfer the entire file that has changed – rather than just the modified binary subset of that file.
