New Mozy Restore Manager

Mozy, the online backup service from EMC Corporation, announced improved features to its ‘restore’ experience, making it easier for Mozy users to access backed-up files on demand. Whether protecting business files with MozyPro, or personal data with MozyHom, Mozy users benefit from new features such as a restore progress monitor and instant download of individual files.

In online backup since it was founded in 2005, Mozy’s mission has been to securely protect customer data and make it available when needed. With the enhancements to the restore process, users can browse and search files in the improved interface; quickly view file and folder details; easily download all files in one click; view 30 days’ worth of file versions; and use the Mozy Restore Manager, a new option (viewable automatically) that helps consolidate and transfer files directly from Mozy to a computer – without waiting for files to be packaged and archived.

"These improvements to our restore experience make it even easier for users to quickly restore critical data," said Russ Stockdale, Vice President of Product Management for Mozy. "A typical growing business or consumer would prefer to set up Mozy once and never have to think about it again. But life happens, and if and when one of our customers needs to restore their backed-up data, we want that restore process to be painless."

The new Mozy restore features are available immediately to U.S. customers on Mozys web site, and will soon be available in other countries.
