What You Get (We're still in beta - but this is about how things will end up..)

• 1GB of backup storage, or 2GB if you fill out our survey
• Block-level differential backup
• Open File support
• 128-bit SSL Support (to secure your data during transport)
• 448-bit Blowfish Encryption (to secure your data on our server)
• Continuous or Scheduled Backup Options
• Support for multiple computers per account
• Up to 4 restore sessions per month

What We Get

Here's the catch - aside from the good karma we get for offering a great free service, every once in a while we get to send you email advertisements for products and services that we think are useful. (We'll never give your email address to an advertiser - any emails will come straight through us.)

Alternatives to Mozy

• Burn a new CD or DVD every Sunday night and store them at your brother-in-laws office like it's your religion.
• Pay $100/year for an online backup service that uses old, mediocre software.
• Buy a $200 external hard drive and obsessively "push the button" and hope your office doesn't burn down.
• Do nothing and don't worry about backup. (We suggest closing your eyes, plugging your ears and repeating "I'm in my happy place, I'm in my happy place".)
• Run a cron job of rsync, gzip and mcrypt piped over ssh to your friends server over his DSL line.
