Availability of CloudBerry Desktop Backup Free

CloudBerry Lab, Inc. announced the availability of company’s Desktop Backup Free as part of its Backup 4.3 release.

The Desktop Backup Free gives individual users a simple, free solution for backing up their Windows computers to the public cloud of their choice. It’s easy to install and to use, giving consumers file-level backup with encryption, compression, consistency check, retention policies, alerting and more.

Additional features available as part of Backup 4.3 include:

Support for VMware vCloud Air: Customers can use CloudBerry Backup with VMware, Inc.‘s vCloud Air, a dedicated hybrid cloud service operated by VMware and build on the trusted foundation of vSphere.
File level recovery for image-based backups: Image based backups are an extremely efficient way to protect data, including OS and application data, because it takes block-level snapshots of all or selected volumes. Now, the solution can retrieve individual files from these image-based backups in the cloud without having to recover the entire volume.

Company’s Backup provides SMBs with a reliable, powerful and affordable solution to backup and recover data using the cloud. In addition to offering real-time and/or scheduled regular backups for simple data, local disk image, or bare metal restore, the solution employs block level backup for maximum efficiency. A alerting feature tracks each backup and restore plan remotely. Data is protected via 256-bit AES encryption with keys controlled only by the customer, while confidentiality is enforced through transparent exchange whereby only the end-user has access to the actual data residing in the cloud.

“With the release of CloudBerry Backup 4.3, we’re making it even easier for individuals to experience the power of cloud-based backup with CloudBerry Desktop Backup Free,” said Alexey Serkov, CTO, CloudBerry Lab. “And for our business customers, we’re continuing to make our solution more powerful through the addition of file recovery for image-based backups.“
