… As Well as Bumi …

BUMI Inc. (Backup My Info!), announced an alternative to the Symantec Backup Exec.cloud service that will cease operation on January 6, 2015.

BUMI’s Symantec trade-up program provides customers with a complimentary backup and recovery consultation, a migration plan with best practices recommendations and two months of its BUMI There cloud backup service for free.

One of three solutions offered by BUMI, BUMI There is a cloud backup and recovery service that requires no onsite equipment. It provides a solution for organizations to off-load their backup operations to the cloud, and is supported by the company’s engineering team that provides proactive monitoring and service.

“Cloud backup is an integral part of today’s business operations,” said Jennifer Walzer, CEO, BUMI. “In addition to receiving a highly scalable and secure cloud backup and recovery platform that leverages Asigra’s enterprise technology, Symantec Backup Exec.cloud customers will appreciate our white-glove approach to customer service and support which differentiates BUMI from other solutions.”

To redeem the offer, participants must verify their status as a former Backup Exec.cloud customer and are required to sign a 12-month agreement.

In addition to BUMI There, BUMI also offers BUMI Here, a solution that allows organizations to leverage existing IT infrastructure to create their own private cloud for backup and recovery and BUMI Everywhere, a hybrid cloud backup solution that combines onsite data protection with offsite replication, setup, remote monitoring and support.
