- What is FastBIT technology?
FastBIT is the most effective incremental backup technology available today. It uses a complex algorithm to precisely identify the changes that have been made to any type of file since the last backup. These changes are transmitted to the Data SyncServer, requiring minimal bandwidth. Once the server receives these changes, it can combine them with the previous backup to form an identical copy of your current file. In order to perform a FastBIT backup, the software has to backup the files 3 times: the first backup is a full, the next backup will perform an incremental, and the third performs the first FastBIT backup.
- Why is FastBIT important to me?
If you are an end-user, the efficiency of FastBIT will dramatically reduce the time required to backup your data from any network location, include slow dialup connections.
If you are the server administrator, FastBIT will minimize your overall bandwidth utilization for a large installed base. FastBIT will also provide the most cost-effective method of storing ongoing file histories for every user. FastBIT backups can be 15 times smaller than the nearest competitor. That means Data Syncwill only need 10 Gigabytes for user data that would need up to 150 Gigabytes of storage using competitive software for the same amount of user data.
- What platforms does Data Sync support?
Data Sync service is subscription based. So the software is not sold. An initial setup fee may apply. The client software can be installed on any Windows 98se, Me, NT, 2000, 2003 (.NET) or XP computer. The Data SyncClient software communicates to the Data Sync Server using the TCP/IP protocol.
- Can I backup other platforms with my Data Sync Client software?
Data SyncClient software will only run natively on Windows 98, Me, NT 4.0, 2000, 2003 (.NET) and XP. If you want to backup computers with other operating systems, it is possible. Here's how... Since Data SyncClient supports mapped network drives and the Network Neighborhood, it can backup data from any computer that is accessible via the network. A single Data SyncClient can backup the local computer and any number of local or remote network computers using NovaNet-WEB's powerful user interface.
- How does the licensing work?
The client and server software are NOT sold separately. Since a Data SyncClient must communicate with a Data SyncServer, all of the licensing is controlled on the server. Licensing is managed on a "per computer" basis. This means a 10-user Data Synclicense will allow 10 computers to backup to the Data SyncServer. These 10 licenses can be used in any combination, such as 10 users each backing up only their local system or 2 users backing up 5 computers each, etc.
- Can I test the software before I buy it?
Sure! You can download a 30 day demo or send an e-mail to our sales department at
sales@bytesync.net to discuss which of
our Business Plans Packages are right for you!
