Asheville, NC -- With businesses increasingly dependent on their electronic data, "backing up" computers has become a critical component to ensure business continuity. Netriplex, an international datacenter company headquartered in Asheville, NC, announced a new line of offsite backup appliances which make their enterprise solution affordable for small and medium size businesses with as few as two computers.

"Effective disaster recovery from viruses, hard drive failure, theft, fire, etc. involves having up-to-the-minute copies of all company data both locally and offsite," explains Netriplex's Chief Technology Officer, Jonathan Hoppe. "If data copies are only kept locally, then a fire or natural disaster can destroy them; and if they are only kept offsite, they may not be available quickly enough when a file is missing or a hard drive crashes. Our new enterprise backup appliance intelligently and automatically compresses, encrypts and transmits all data on the network, first to the local Appliance and then to a Netriplex high security data center to ensure 100% data reliability and availability."

Unlike traditional, offsite data vaulting where tapes are sent to a remote storage facility or disaster recovery site, Netriplex's backup appliance is near instantaneous, making real-time data backup or disaster recovery far more effective for a fraction of the cost. IT managers can restore data to its original location or to any pre-configured disaster recovery location worldwide within minutes.

The new offsite backup appliances come in seven capacities starting at $99 monthly for up to 200GB of compressed data, plus a low one-time licensing fee. Small and mid-size companies especially benefit from the minimal up-front capital and administration costs. In addition, Netriplex's incremental, bit-level backup technology, which backs up only the data that changes, preserves company bandwidth and reduces network traffic.
