Novastor Unveils NovaBackup 10

HAMBURG and SIMI VALLEY, Calif. -- NovaStor (GER:MONT), a leading provider of software solutions for data availability and protection today announced the availability of NovaBACKUP 10, the latest version of its flagship NovaBACKUP data protection and disaster recovery software for Windows-based PCs and Servers. NovaBACKUP 10 empowers users with the choice to create backups and store data locally or online, and even includes a free one year online storage account. Previous versions only supported local backup to hard drives, tape drives, CD/DVD/Blu-ray Disc burners, and network attached storage (NAS) devices; the new release enables online backup capabilities via FTP to corporate servers or to other online storage services. NovaBACKUP 10 is the first all in one solution from a major data protection software provider to offer this level of flexibility in protecting users critical information wherever they are, to virtually any backup device, simply and reliably.

Features new to NovaBACKUP 10 include disk image recovery, which takes a snapshot of the entire system to protect and preserve data in the event of a disaster allowing recovery from a local or network source; and the ability to backup, copy or mirror data to FTP or online storage accounts offered by NovaStor, Amazon’s S3, and others to be added soon.

“Most data protection applications limit users to backing up to local backup devices and force them to use proprietary backup technology,” said Mike Andrews, Managing Director of NovaStor. “NovaBACKUP 10 enables users with the freedom to choose not only whether to backup locally or online, but also the flexibility to backup in the format that best suits the user’s needs.”
