Web Hosting Provider Verio Launches PC Data Backup

Web hosting provider Verio has released its Verio PC Data Backup service for small businesses that protects critical data and work documents stored on personal computers connected to a hosted server. Verio has partnered with the leading information protection and storage services company Iron Mountain Incorporated to deliver the technology that automatically backs up and restores business files and data in mirrored offsite, secure data center facilities, improving data availability while reducing recovery costs.

Verio’s PC Data Backup solution is an easy-to-use, Internet-based tool that protects businesses from data loss due to hard disk drive failure, data corruption, virus infections or accidental deletion. A simple user interface enables users to backup one or more PC laptops and/or desktops at one time and to watch backups as they occur via the installed application.
 
The PC Data Backup service features fast, easy and secure data protection for important personal and business files, rapid recovery and simple file restoration, government-level encryption during transmission and storage, mirrored storage at multiple sites, insuring against physical disaster to a data center, and 99.99 percent uptime, ensuring user access to data 24x7x365.

Small businesses primarily backing up word processing documents and simple spreadsheets or financial information can choose from plans offering 2 GBs or 10 GBs of backup, while businesses that need to secure larger media files, digital photographs, or higher volumes of data can choose a plan offering 30 GBs of backup storage.

“The prevalence of data risks such as PC viruses and malfunction, malware intrusion and computer hacking have forced small businesses to take a more proactive approach in protecting their valuable information,” said Dennis Boyle, chief operating officer for Verio.

“Anyone who’s experienced a data loss on their PC knows how devastating it can be. This is a big problem, and Verio offers a simple and effective solution to prevent this kind of loss. PC Data Backup is the answer to ensuring company data is easily and readily available, secured and stored for retrieval,” said Kiyoshi Maeda, president and acting chief executive officer for Verio.

Verio’s PC Data Backup solution is available immediately to customers worldwide, starting at $14.95 for 2 GBs of backup per month, with plans ranging up to 30 GBs. More information can be found at www.verio.com/data-backup.
