Novosoft Announces Plans to Release a NAS Backup Device

Novosoft announces a plan to release a hardware solution based on their key software
Handy Backup. The new product will allow companies to create private cloud infrastructures for file backup and storage purposes.

“The greatest advantage of private cloud storage is that it offers extremely high speed and security, as compared to online services,” said Alexander Rassokhin, product manager of Handy Backup. “It is critical for businesses to be able to recover data in the fastest manner possible, and at the same time it is critical to diversify the risks and not put all the eggs in one basket. Our private cloud backup solutions will bring the best of both worlds.”

Novosoft Announces Backup Seeding Service for North American Customers

Novosoft announced that they will be offering a new option of initial backup seeding, as a part of their Online Backup service in spring 2013. The seeding process will be based on sending an initial copy of HDD data to Novosoft’s storage center, and then using Online Backup to safeguard subsequent changes. 

“Transferring a full drive backup to an online server can take several days or even weeks to get completed, and our users frequently ask if it can be made in a more convenient form.” said Nataly Sigaeva, head of Novosoft marketing department. “The new feature of initial backup seeding will completely change the experience of offsite backups. Instead of copying so much data over the Internet, our customers will be able to create a local snapshot of their drives, physically send it to our storage, and then enjoy the power and simplicity of online incremental backups provided by our service.”

The new service will offer two different scenarios for seeding backups. Existing users of Handy Backup and Novosoft Remote Backup Service will be able to simply send their backup drives to the company’s storage center, by any postal service. New customers will be shipped a special hard drive containing all the necessary instructions and the related software.

“We are close to final agreements with our partners in North America, and actively discussing opportunities with hosting providers in Europe and other parts of the world. These new partnership activities look very promising, and we believe that the result will be greatly appreciated by all of our users.”
