Performance

1. Fast and easy to install – Our backup system is very fast and installs easily (you can be fully backup protected in under 2 minutes!)
2. Runs in background – Backups run in the background so you can continue to work while your files are being backed up
3. Set CPU priority – Background CPU priority can be set to High, Medium or Low
4. Exclude file types – You can specify the types of files (MP3, EXE, WAV etc.) or even the age of files you want to exclude from your backups (to make your backups smaller and faster)
5. Compression – Data is compressed prior to transmission
6. Capacity – Can handle very large data backups – up to 2 Gigabytes of data (compressed). If compression ratio is 4:1 that would be 8 Gigabytes of data!

Security

1. Enhanced Password – Enhanced password control (prevents passwords from being sent across the Internet)
2. AES encryption – Data is transmitted, and stored, with strong encryption (U.S. Military ‘AES’ standard). No one has access to your data!
3. Multiple levels of protection – Our data centers use the latest protection tools and techniques, including multiple Firewalls, Intrusion Detection systems and Virus Scanners.

Functionality

1. Full and incremental backups – Full (weekly or monthly) and incremental (daily) backups
2. Scheduling – Flexible backup system scheduling (in between specified hours, on demand etc.)
3. Retrieve backups from anywhere – No special software required to retrieve your encrypted files from anywhere in the world
4. Unlimited multiple versions – Multiple versions of your files are stored (for up to a year or longer). You’re not limited to only the last x versions like other remote backup services.
5. Choose restore location – Restore any or all files back to their original hard drive location, or to any other location you choose
6. Search – Easily locate files you want to retrieve (by individual file name, search, calendar etc.)

9. Password reminder – Reminder phrase can be saved in case you forget your password
10. Dynamic DNS – Can directly access your office PC from anywhere, even if you do not have a static IP or domain name

3. Integrity verified – Backup integrity is verified after each upload
