Benefits and advantages of Code42 Cloud Backup
The HFS Code42 backup implementation is cloud-based and offers many benefits and advantages over the existing on-premise desktop backup service, as listed below:
- No need for VPN. You can backup from anywhere to the Code42 Cloud
- Automatic backups in the background - by default every 15 minutes (but configurable)
- Unlimited storage and no daily limits to how much you backup
- You can backup up to 4 machines under one personal account
- Easy to use interface to select and exclude your data for backup
- By default compression, encryption and deduplication of your backups both in transit and at rest
- Fast restores
- Restore your data from one machine to another
- Cross platform restores (i.e. Windows to Mac) supported
- Point-in-time restores
- Multiple backup sets allowing you to backup some data more or less frequently than others
- Easy configuration of your backup settings including frequency of background backups and number of versions held
- Backups to local storage possible in addition to cloud backup
We think that many of the above features will be met with general approval by our existing and future users.
