We just rolled this out last week and we’re starting to see some good sign-ups. We hope you’ll give it a try too. **What it is** You get a free account in our recovery-as-a-service cloud environment, accessed through our Recovery Console SaaS admin interface. You also download, for free, our Cloud Hub virtual appliance and install it on any host running VMware ESX. **What you get** The free version of our service lets you manage your VMware systems more easily that anything else around. Start, stop and resize servers. Set up alerts and check usage. Most important, it’s your first step towards implementing DR in the cloud. Heck, maybe your first step towards DR of any kind. Now, to be clear, while the free account is limited to VMware only, paid nScaled service can protect both physical and virtual servers, running Windows or Linux. And, of course, when you step up to a paid service, you get all of the DR/backup/archiving that nScaled is known for. But the free accounts are useful for wrangling your current systems, and will give you an idea of what it’s like to use nScaled. What have you got to lose?
