Do You Mozy?

By EF Cussins

If you have not noticed, periodically I get on a soap box and start preaching about the importance of backing up one’s pictures, music, video and documents. Part of the reason is I some very valuable information through not backing up documents. Then there is other people who I know personally who lost very large amounts of time and money, all because they did not back up their records.

Over the years, I have found the biggest deterrent to  people backing up the information from their computers is time and know how. Time because one has to schedule a certain every day or week to manual to back up those all important files. Then there are those who see the act of backing up data as rocket science.

A few years back I found the perfect answer. A system that automatically daily puts a second copy of my important files in a secure location. The only really technical part was install the special software needed to tap into this online backup service.

Need I mention that up to 2 gigabytes is FREE. Then above that is under $5 per month. I wish my car insurance was so cheep. The service is call MOZY.

Mozy offers a great online backup service for the home user, and all the way up to large companies.

I was able to catch up with Devin Knighton at Mozy. He graciously granted me an interview for the podcast.  You also listen to that interview by left clicking on the player below.
