“NovaBACKUP integrators and customers can’t afford to wait weeks for their backup vendor to support a new OS.“, says Mike Andrews, MD, NovaStor. “The fast adoption of new technologies and OSs is a cornerstone of our strategy for growth. The flexibility of our U.S. based engineering team to rapidly respond to change is something that competitors have had a difficult time trying to duplicate.“

In addition to traditional file-backup, NovaBACKUP offers complete system DR to restore systems complete with applications and OS. With all server-class products including free remote ‘Setup Assistance’, new NovaBACKUP customers get initial backup jobs running and achieve data protection from day one.

At a time when a number of aging OSs are being retired, it’s become important for software vendors to support the latest technologies. In the case of organizations that are required to meet specific compliance requirements, such as dental and medical practices under the HIPAA security rule, it is a necessity.
