screen31 KeepVault Announces Pricing for Unlimited Yearly Online Backup

We covered Proxure’s KeepVault for Windows Home Server back in mid-September. KeepVault allows you to backup your home server to a remote server, so your data is protected from physical damage to the home.

Today, Proxure announced pricing for KeepVault’s backup service – for a limited time, Proxure is offering unlimited online storage for $78 per year ($6.50 per month), which sounds like a very good deal indeed.

No availability date has been released, and KeepVault is still currently in Beta.

    Hello Terry

    We’re pleased to announce that KeepVault for Windows Home Server is now available (the website was updated at approx. 1pm Eastern today, Nov 5th 2007)!

    One thing you might want to clarify: this product doesn’t appear to “backup your home server to a remote server” completely, just shares. I was initially thinking it would backup the contents of all WHS drives, but sadly this doesn’t appear to be the case based on the KeepVault website. I see that you did mention “shares” in the earlier blog entry.

    Confirmed: got this email from Keepvault:

    “Hello,

    This version of KeepVault only protects selected Shares. It does not
    currently protect and entire drive.

    Thanks!
    Kim, Proxure Support.”

    Eric – apologies – slip up on my part. Blame it on having to write a lot of blog posts over the weekend! You’re quite right, KeepVault allows you to backup your shared folders – it’s not an online full server recovery resource! Still, it does offer a great extra layer of protection for those folders!

    Best wishes
    Terry

    Carbonite.com has unlimited backups and it backs up all of your files, not just the shares. It does it for only $49.99 a year.

    A word of warning about free or nearly free add based online abckup services….

    Mirroring data from one area to another does cost money. Actually backing up (keeping multiple quantities at the backup site) costs multiple times the basic investment. A free or no cost advertising based service can only reduse costs by reducing the number of copies it retains. In effect, you are paying in risk rather than currency. Add to this the common high limit upload and low limit download problem with free and low cost suppliers and you can find yourself in a “Hotel California for data” scenario in which you need to “upgrade” you “free” service by paying money (sometimes exorbitant rates) so you can download what is rightfully yours. In essence, if you can t afford real commercial online backup, back it up yourself. You will be more accountable, contactable and reasonable than any low cost or no cost supplier. If you can afford commercial online backup, get exactly that.
