• Tapes and tape drives will fail at some point or your backups can simply be forgotten about during staff absences.
• WorldBackups.net is a free software solution, and as such is not reliant on supplementary hardware such as tape drives.
• Online backups from WorldBackups.net can be scheduled to run daily, weekly, monthly or continuously, thus removing the uncertainly of manual tape changes. You will never miss a backup again!
• Because WorldBackups.net is a free software solution, you will never need to purchase any additional backup software when you next upgrade your server.

• Yes - You set the encryption level on each backup. WorldBackups.net supports 64 to 448 bit non-reversible encryption.
• Your data is encrypted on your server(s) prior to being sent across the Internet to our servers. This data remains encrypted at all times on our servers, and can only be accessed with the password you set. Even we cannot access your data without this password.

• WorldBackups.net has been built from the ground up with durability in mind. Every subsystem benefits from an N+1 architecture design, meaning it cannot be affected by a single point of failure at any time on our network.
• We also replicate your backups to a separate data centre within a minute of your backup completing.

WorldBackups.net can be deployed in one of two ways.

• Software Installation - Our application is installed on every server or desktop you require backing up. Your backups can be set up and running in under 5 minutes.
• Hardware Installation - WorldBackups.net server appliance - We will install and configure a local on-premise server with WorldBackups.net embedded in the OS. This will allow you to mirror your entire server infrastructure simultaneously to this appliance and benefit from LAN speed restores. At the same time your data is replicated to our servers within our data centre.

• Very easy. The WorldBackups.net client is installed in a few mouse clicks, and a backup can be configured and running in under 5 minutes.
• A page specific manual is embedded in our software providing detailed help on every screen.
• All backups and restores are set up using wizards

• You will receive an email after each job has run confirming if your backup has succeeded or failed.
• You can monitor all of your servers from one centrally located web browser.

• As long as you have a basic ADSL connection with an upstream of 250Kbps or more you will be able to use WorldBackups.net.
• The deciding factor is how much modified data you require backing up each day.
• The easiest way to check if your connection is suitable is to download our FREE 30 day trial and see for yourself.

• WorldBackups.net backs up all Microsoft Server operating systems.
• WorldBackups.net backs up all versions of Microsoft Exchange at the mailstore and mailbox level, so you can retrieve an entire Exchange server or even a single email (this includes Exchange 2010).
• WorldBackups.net backs up Microsoft SQL 2000, 2005, 2008 and MySQL databases.
• WorldBackups.net backs up all Microsoft based desktop operating systems such as Windows 2000, XP, Vista and 2007.
• MAC and Linux files can also be backed up if they are stored on a central Windows server.

• WorldBackups.net allows you to retain up to 99 versions of live and deleted data; or you can set the retention period to days, months or years if you prefer.

You can simply restore any of your data using our restore wizard.

• If you have a lot of data to restore and don’t have the necessary Internet bandwidth we can restore your data to a USB disk at our data centre and courier it to you for a local restore on your premises (your data will remain encrypted until the local restore completes).
• If you have one of our server appliances on your site, you will be able to restore your data locally at LAN speed.

• We provide unlimited telephone and email support during normal business hours.

• Yes - The termination period is only 30 days.

• You will be invoiced in arrears at the end of each month.

• We only charge for the data you store on our servers. This starts at £0.90 per GB.
• We don’t ask for a commitment longer than 30 days nor do we sell packages of data that you may not use. You only pay for what you use!
• We also compress your data by up to 90%. Therefore 100GB of data on your network might be stored as 10GB on our servers. We would only charge you for that 10GB stored on our server.

Compressed data: 10GB
Price per GB: £0.90

We know not all backup solutions are the same

If you are considering moving to a different provider or are selecting one for the first time, we recommend you ask the following questions.

• Can you tell me where my data will be stored & where a copy is replicated to?
• Can you connect remotely to my server to fix an issue for us?
• Do you provide 24 x 7 Worldwide support?
• Can I retain my backups for as long as I want to?
• Can I back up any type and size of file
• Am I tied into a contract longer than 30 days?
• Can I pay for just the data I store?
• Are there any extra hidden charges to pay?
