I’ve been thinking about the difference between online storage and portable storage. Many companies are offering online storage with monthly subscription fees. Online storages allows easy access to your data anywhere anytime as long as you have internet access. Whereases portable storage has be to carried around - that’s the only troublesome part of it. After searching the internet, I found another online storage solution in the market.

IBackup is an internet company that offers online storage and backup for user based on a monthly subscription. Users online data are mapped to their PC’s drive or a folder on their computer. It looks as if it’s part of your computer’s hard disk. Those of you whose company allocate certain storage space in your company’s server would be familiar with this situation. This feature IBackup is offering provides for easy drag-n-drop and familiar explorer interface to work with your online data. IBackup is the first to offer this feature with high performance and security that no other online storage companies are offering.

Performance difference is very significant in many cases where IBackup’s desktop applications outperform the rest by a factor of at least 30-50%. IBackup claimed to be able to deliver than kind of performance that outperform many of its competitive. Such features would increase productivity.

I’m actually quite impressed with the features that IBackup offers. Next month I’ll be travelling back to home to for a short holiday. The free 15 days trial is good for me to store and download when I get back home.
