"Just about anyone using a computer has accidentally deleted, overwritten or lost a file and realised that they don't have a backup copy -- typically because regular backup of data was too complex or time-consuming," said Lauren Whitehouse, analyst at Enterprise Strategy Group. "FileKeeper Professional offers the behind-the-scenes protection, as well as effortless recovery, needed to ensure that data is safe and always available."
For the novice user, FileKeeper Professional protects most common user data right out of the box, and for the more experienced user, it has easy to configure personalised protection policies and retention periods. In either scenario, FileKeeper Professional requires no further maintenance once set-up, providing users with a ‘set-it-and-forget-it’ solution.
"FileKeeper Professional is the simple and affordable data protection solution individual users have been demanding," said George Symons, CEO of Yosemite Technologies. "This is the latest offering in our comprehensive line of Core-to-Edge solutions that matches the needs and budgets of diverse customers."
FileKeeper Professional uses near Continuous Data Protection (CDP) technology to protect irreplaceable data as it is created and transparently stores file versions to one or more safe storage locations. File versions are automatically stored in a repository on a disk inside one’s computer, allowing for the recovery of a file or version, even when the computer is not connected to external storage. Only the bytes that have changed in a new version of a file are stored, providing very efficient use of disk space. The files and changes are automatically saved to a secure storage location on a USB hard disk drive or networked storage when its connected, ensuring the data is safe and always available even if the user’s laptop is lost or stolen.
FileKeeper Professional augments Yosemite’s current FileKeeper Corporate product designed for IT departments to centrally manage the laptops of an organisation.
FileKeeper’s near CDP technology can also be purchased as an option to the popular Yosemite Backup™ software, providing a total data protection solution.
"Our FileKeeper products combined with Windows Vista Business, the first Windows operating system designed specifically for small businesses, creates a powerful one, two punch," continued Symons. "The result is an environment where businesses benefit from continuous data protection of their valuable information as well as file version recovery that can be executed quickly with a simple right click of the mouse directly from Windows Explorer. This ability to virtually erase mistakes ensures painless protection, allowing businesses to keep moving forward and focus on growth."
