Digital Lockers are characterized as the fastest growing form of Internet piracy.  Megaupload is one of the largest Digital Lockers or digital storage services on the Internet, with close to 3 million users in the U.S.  Digital lockers allow anyone to upload, store and distribute links to most forms of electronic content.  Unfortunately, these services are reportedly used primarily for uploading and sharing music, video and documents files containing and inordinately large amount of data. Last week the U.S. Justice Department released an indictment accusing Megaupload’s founders and other officers of criminal conspiracy, arguing that they encouraged copyright violations and in some cases copied protected content themselves. The takedown enraged some Internet activists, who launched denial-of-service attacks that temporarily rendered websites of the Justice Department, FBI and big entertainment companies unreachable.  How safe is your data?  www.filetwin.com Because you need two.

Ample studies show that Americans are reactive versus proactive. So, here at Filetwin, we fight an uphill battle to get customers to take a proactive approach to safeguarding their digital assets. You should see how people react once they have lost some or all of their data.

Is it frustrating? Sure it is because all of the drama associated with a data loss scenario is completely unnecessary. Look, this blog features ample articles which articulate the benefits and features of online backup so we won’t go through them again here. There’s really no question that using Filetwin will eliminate drama when you lose your data (notice we said when because it’s always a matter of “when” not “if” you’ll lose your data) but then people throw up other obstacles like price. Therefore, this article will be about the cost of using Filetwin.

Are we the cheapest? No. Are we responsive? Yes. Are we located in the U.S.A.? You bet. We don’t use off-shore customer service companies to deal with our customers, we’d prefer to deal with you directly. Does that increase our costs a little? Yes. Is it worth it to you? Hey, when you find yourself in a situation this benefit will come in handy – no offense India but we want to keep some jobs here in America.

Now, the most exclusive online backup package we offer is $134.95. If you take a look at the price of your smartphone service, you’ll notice that Filetwin service is basically the same price as your monthly cell bill.Honestly, you’d have to wonder about these other online backup services that charge $4.95 or $5.95 a month. What type of service do you think you’ll get from them when you’re experiencing an emergency. Well, we’ve had a few people share their horror stories with us and let me reassure you, when you’re in that situation, our service will seem cheap based on the headaches and drama you’ll save yourself.

Hopefully, you won’t get caught in a data loss scenario but don’t say we didn’t warn you if you lose your laptop, get a virus or malware or if your laptop just conks out. Either way, we hope you’ll take our advice because just like your Benjamin Franklin used to say, an ounce of prevention now is worth a pound of cure – we couldn’t agree more!

Today’s Blog will take a different approach to helping you evaluate different providers on online backup services. We’re so sure that our service far exceeds that of any other online backup service that we’re providing a link so you can compare for yourself http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_online_backup_services. Now, we’re not listed on this chart so here’s our breakdown:

• You’re able to backup Windows desktops, laptops and servers.
• You can backup Linux.
• You can backup MacBooks and Mac servers.
• You get business grade encryption that’s computationally infeasible to crack.
• You’re able to store as much data as you need (notice the chart speaks in MB but we think more along the lines of GB and TB)
• You can choose from various plans that suit your needs and budget.
• You get unlimited bandwidth when you do backups.
• You can backup to a network drive or NAS device.
• You get version control which automatically detects changes to new, deleted or amended files.
