Why OBS
OBS sets a new standard in offsite data backups. Online backup is easy, cost-effective and secure making it an ideal choice for your new backup solution or to replace a traditional tape backup system.
There are some clear benefits of using an online backup service like OBS to protect your critical data.
Automated offsite data backups
Peace of mind that your data is automatically backed up to a secure offsite location. There’s no need to worry about scheduling tape rotations, courier pickups or costly outsourced data vault services.
Cost savings with lower setup and running costs
There’s no upfront or ongoing investment required in software, media or tape drive hardware. Everything you require to start backing up your data is included with OBS.
Lower staffing costs and increased productivity
Easy to use software and automated backup schedules allow your technical staff to attend to more important tasks.
Faster restores
Your data is instantly accessible online 24/7. Restores are fast using the Online Backup Manager software and you can even restore from anywhere using our web based interface. There’s no waiting for tapes to arrive from the data vault. Get your data back when you need it.
Worry free backups
Our Online Backup Manager software has an offline scheduler option. If a backup has not been performed after a certain number of days, the backup will be scheduled to run automatically when the computer next connects to the Internet. Comprehensive email reports provide notification if a scheduled backup has not run or if errors are encountered.
Data privacy and security guaranteed
Your data is automatically encrypted using your unique encryption key before being transferred to the backup server. Your files are then stored in an encrypted state on the backup server and your data cannot be accessed (even by Net24) without your encryption key.
Save money on software licensing fees
OBS pricing plans include our Online Backup Manager software that is capable of backing up all file types and applications. Pictures, documents, files, spreadsheets, SQL databases, Microsoft Exchange databases and even emails are all able to be backed up by the one piece of software.
