Ventrus Networks are proud to release our new online backup service called ByteSize Backups. The service provides SME’s with an alternative to the usual methods of backup such as tape or disk, which can often prove unreliable.
How does it work?
The software is installed on each server, workstation or laptop or Mac that our customers want to back up. Weselect the files they need and set a convenient schedule out of office hours for the backups to automatically run. The files are encrypted and securely transferred to our backup servers in the cloud. The customer can access their data any time of day or night if they need to recover any important files.
Our software works in such a way that we can reduce the amount of data we store in the cloud by only backing up the changed pieces of files, or blocks instead of the entire file. This dramatically reduces cost.
We can also backup your files to external USB Hard Drives connected to the servers for fast local recovery of files and data, which is a rare feature with cloud backup vendors.
Our software supports a multitude of server applications out of the box, including the typical Exchange, Sharepoint, Active Directory, MSSQL, MYSQL installations as well as bare metal image backup and VMware backup which other cloud backup vendors struggle with even today.
For IT managers looking for asolution for their roaming users who insist on saving critical files locally on their laptops, can manage their servers AND their roaming users under one simple account.
