The world will be a nicer place when we don�t have to worry about losing data and files of important information due to hardware failure and user error.� Unfortunately that time is not in the near future, and to protect ourselves today we must rely on data backups for peace of mind.� Data backups are not a difficult thing, but they are usually tedious (at least for me); especially when I want to get the data backed up to an off-site location (as I usually do), and I am working in a small company with only a single data site.
Introducing www.connected.com to the rescue!� This site offers easy backups over the Internet that are very secure, very small, very fast, and very inexpensive.� Four �very�s� means that it is very, very, very, very good.� You may try out their product for a month for free.� It installs a client component on your PC.� The client component, at highly configurable schedules, can backup your desired files and send them over the Internet using strong encryption and compression to a remote location.� The price for this service is as low as $76 per year.� If you are looking for a backup solution for yourself or a client, I encourage you to check out this site and see what they can do for you.
