PALM DESERT, Calif., Aug 01, 2005 /PRNewswire-FirstCall via COMTEX/ -- Newport International Group (NWPO) announced today that its Spare Backup Inc. subsidiary has signed a new channel partner for the company's fully automated online backup service. An emerging player in online backup for small businesses and home office users, Spare Backup Inc. through Shore IT is positioned to introduce Spare services to the Australian market.
The Spare Backup service, which Shore IT will offer as a value-added service to its customers, runs by itself entirely, with no user interaction after sign-up. Between Spare Backup's proprietary software and the service element that takes advantage of the user's broadband Internet connection, files are automatically recognized, saved, compressed and secured remotely.
"We are excited about our agreement with Shore IT and our introduction to the Australian market," said Cery Perle, CEO of Newport International Group. "We hope this is one of many new partners, who will help us to establish a global presence."
The Spare Backup Solution
Spare is a fully automated remote backup solution. It starts by scanning a user's hard drive, including the desktop and e-mail programs, for files and their important components. Then it transports the data, including new and revised files, daily to twin data centers on both U.S. coasts. Files are triple-encrypted and users can access them from any broadband, Web-connected computer anywhere.
"Many SOHO businesses have their important data stored in laptops and PCs that are not backed up regularly, if at all," said Michelle Zou, research analyst at IDC. "One reason is that the traditional backup to removable media involves manual operations, it is not convenient and easy to bring human error. In addition, data recovery is time-consuming. Spare Backup Inc.'s online data backup and recovery service automates the backup process, and restores files in seconds by a few mouse clicks."
Spare Backup service costs $15.99 per month, including 5 gigabytes of online storage, and is available for a 14-day free trial at www.sparebackup.com, as well as from its reseller channel.
