SINGAPORE, MAY 6, 2015 - Acronis has announced the launch
of a special data backup package programme named as Startup Package
for early stage technology companies. Launched on the sidelines of
the 2-day Tech in Asia conference here, the package includes the
Acronis Backup Advanced for Windows Server, Acronis Backup to Cloud
500 GB and Acronis Access Advanced for 1 year and up to 10
users.
Most small-to-midsized businesses (SMBs) are aware of the
importance of data protection. But due to accelerating data growth
rates, budget constraints, reliance on outmoded technology, and
other factors, many SMBs do not have adequate data protection.
According to a survey, almost 75% of SMBs have no disaster recovery
plan, and only about 25% are "extremely confident" about their
ability to restore data in an emergency. About half of SMBs back up
less than 60% of their data, leaving the rest vulnerable to loss at
anytime.
These gaps in data protection are among the key drivers leading
SMBs to embrace cloud backup. But while cloud backup is often the
most affordable, reliable, and efficient data protection solution
for SMBs, choosing the right provider for your specific business
needs can be a challenge.
Said Mr Serg Bell, CEO, Acronis, "At Acronis, we remember our
days as a start up too, just a short decade ago. We know what it
takes to transform good ideas into great products that become a
growing business. That's why we want to give this added advantage -
the physical resources, in the form of software and Cloud based
storage to help these startups grow with flexibility, scalability
and ultimately success."
The special Backup, cloud, disaster recovery and mobile file
sharing and sync all in one startup package programme is available
to all Startups or Early Stage Technology Companies with internet
dependent / big data related and /or Cloud based services. It
should also be a member of an incubator, accelerator or start up
community that Acronis partners with (such as Runa Capital, Tech in
Asia). One of the key conditions also being a startup registered at
Tech In Asia Singapore Conference and availing purchasing this
within 3 months.
Willis Wee, founder of Tech in Asia, said, "Acronis' gesture of
creating a special data backup programme for startups is
commendable. We are happy to partner with them at Tech in Asia
Singapore 2015."
