Hosting News The Planet Lowers List Pricing for Backup by 50 Percent 2008-08-29
10GB of Storage Space Now Available for $5 Per Month
HOUSTON, August 27, 2008 ? The Planet, the global leader in IT hosting,
today announced that it has reduced list pricing on its two server backup
products. Effective today, EVault Backup is now priced at $1 per GB, down from
$2. Its Network Backup product is now priced at 50 cents per GB, down from $1.
The price reduction follows a recent upgrade to the company?s managed storage
infrastructure, which offers customers additional storage space and enhanced
performance.
?Storage and backup are increasingly critical for small- and medium-sized
companies, since data loss can actually drive a company out of business,? said
Rob Walters, The Planet?s general manager of storage and data protection. ?Now
any organization can protect data ? which can literally mean the difference
between success and failure ? for as little as $5 per month. At this affordable
rate, there?s no excuse to leave critical data unprotected.?
EVault Backup features a comprehensive, intuitive interface, with rich backup
functionality from data-protection industry leader EVault. The Planet?s Network
Backup provides archiving space available directly through customer applications
and tools, and it features standard protocols for ease of access.
Both solutions are available in 10GB to 80GB or larger capacities for
mission-critical environments.
Through Sep. 30, 2008, new orders of EVault Backup and Network Backup are free
for the first 90 days. For more information, please visit the Web site at
