SOS Online Backup Features

Local Backup

Online backup is invaluable but simply cannot protect your entire computer. Using SOS local backup system, you can backup your entire computer, open/locked and operating system files included to any local medium whether it is an external USB drive, a local network location, a USB stick or an IPod.

Physical Media Upload

Chances are you have at least 20 to 30 GB of data to backup. Over the wire, that can literally take weeks. SOS exclusive PMU technology lets you “seed” your backup by sending your encrypted data on a DVD. Alternatively we can send you a disk overnight and you can copy your backup to that disk. After that, just the 1’s and 0’s that change will be backed up, meaning your daily backup takes just minutes.

Unlimited Number of Computers

LiveProtect

Intelligent File Filters

Tell SOS Online Backup to watch your My Documents folder but to ignore all *.mp3’s and *.avi’s. Alternatively tell SOS to only protect *.doc, and *.xls. Either use our pre-sets or set your own inclusion/exclusion mask.

Enterprise Compression & Transfer Systems

The SOS compression system only backs up changed files and then only the changed 1’s and 0’s are transferred. On a 500 MB database (MYOB/Intuit/Turbo Tax) the daily transfer can be as small as 5 KB. Our transfer system is enterprise grade, meaning that large file transfers are resumed at the KB of interruption, and does not start at the beginning like most other online backup systems.

Global Roaming Access to Your Files

Never be without that critical file again.One-Click File & Folder Sharing From inside the Online Recovery Interface you can share your files with anyone with an email address. Never have a large attachment bounce again. Just share your already backed-up data with your friends and colleagues. Or if you are a home user – simply share photos or videos.

Archiving

Unlike other online backup systems, we do not delete the file from your backup just because you delete the file from your computer. Over 80% of data loss occurs due to accidental deletion. Rest assured, we keep every version of every file forever, until you tell us to remove it.
