Bitfy Makes The Cloud Local For Businesses

MELBOURNE, Australia - Nov. 14, 2013 - PRLog -- bitfy is bringing the cloud into your business with its new data offerings. bitfy's technologies allow small and medium businesses to securely store and manage their data into a local cloud. The offering allows businesses to reduce their reliance on external cloud providers that are usually targeted by cybercriminals or snooping governments. All bitfy plans include free equipment, support and maintenance, together with daily remote backups, quick data recovery and redundant storage across multiple drives.

bitfy uses state of the art technology to provide its clients with reliable data storage solutions. bitfy solutions ensure that all files are duplicated on multiple locations on site and off site. This allows bitfy to detect and restore a broken or missing local cloud within a few hours.

Australian businesses traditionally relied on overpriced local IT consultants with poor data management knowledge to manage their data. Recently many businesses are relying on cloud only solutions like Dropbox to maintain its business data secure. In the event that the local files are lost, downloading the files back from the cloud can take days and even weeks. For many businesses that have limited internet bandwidth, an internet data recovery may not be viable. It is very important to educate businesses on the importance of good data governance. Disaster recovery plans must always include comprehensive and failsafe strategies to reinstate business data in the shortest amount of time.

The new data plans start at AUD$99.99 per month with a 1TB local cloud and 1TB remote backups. The higher end of the spectrum offers a 10TB local cloud with 10TB remote backups for AUD$1999.99 per month. For businesses that experience rapid growth or unforeseen data requirements, additional local cloud storage and backups can be purchased as an addon service. There are no fixed term contracts and setup costs with all plans. All plans include a wide range of features and benefits specifically tailored to ensure high data availability and reliability.

Local cloud solutions are forecasted to have a high impact on how businesses store, manage and protect data. Local clouds effectively reduce the cost of running the systems by relying on existing business premises and infrastructure.  Local clouds are also impervious to external environmental factors that would make a traditional cloud system unavailable.
