BOSTON, July 13 /PRNewswire/ — Carbonite®, a leading provider of online backup, has been selected as a winner of the Tech Awards Circle, taking Gold in the Consumer/Small Office, Home Office (SOHO) service category. Winners were selected by an independent circle of publication reviewers/journalists from nominations based on a broad range of achievements – from product and technology innovations to talented executive leadership and engineering innovators.
Tech Awards Circle celebrates the products, services, vendors and individuals making a difference in the industry today. The winners represent a broad range of achievements, from hardware to software to services in consumer/SOHO, SMB, midrange, and enterprise markets. Gold, Silver and Bronze awards were given out in each category.
“Despite overwhelmingly strong competition, Carbonite exhibited true industry excellence to be recognized among the top of the Tech Awards Circle,” said Kevin Anderson, awards program coordinator. “Our judges were pleased at the level of submissions from all the vendors entering this year’s competition, so to be named a winner of this prestigious award is a testament to the quality and innovation unrivaled in the high tech community.”
“We are extremely honored to be recognized by the distinguished Tech Circle panel as a Gold winner in the Consumer/SOHO service category,” said Carbonite CEO and co-founder David Friend. ”The idea of unlimited online backup for a flat $55 per year would have been unthinkable just 10 years ago. Today it’s become one of the hottest SaaS applications on the market, and every day Carbonite backs up over 150 million new files. The technology to make this work smoothly and reliably has turned out to be incredibly difficult. So I want to recognize the brilliant architecture that our CTO, Jeff Flowers, came up with and the engineering team who executed on this enormously complex technology.”
Carbonite launched its online backup service for PC owners in 2006. In the last year, Carbonite enhanced its Remote File Access features beyond Web browsers to mobile accessibility through iPhone®, iPod Touch® and BlackBerry® smartphone devices. In January, the company raised approximately $20 million in a mezzanine financing round bringing total funding to approximately $67 million.

Mozy has just released version 2 of its award winning backup software for Windows and they have added some great new features. First off it is faster, 25% faster to upload data to the Mozy servers. They have also made significant changes to the user interface. The best part of the new Mozy for Windows is the addition of a local backup option! Now you can backup online and to a local hard drive at the same time. No need to have multiple backup software to maintain a local backup and Mozy for your online backup. Mozy can now do it both!
You can read more about the release of Mozy 2 for Windows on the Mozy blog. Don’t forget to check out more information about Mozy 2xProtect.
I plan to update the Mozy review in the next day or so to reflect the new Mozy features but feel free to read our current Mozy review for more information.
Back in January Carbonite released an iPhone app, they have now followed that up with a Blackberry app. Giving all of the Blackberry users out there the ability to browse, view and share all of their files that are backed up with Carbonite.
Hopefully Carbonite will also extend the love to Android users so they also can browse, view and share their backed up files. Until then Android users will have to look at other alternatives such as SugarSync and Dropbox.

Mozy has expanded its service to the UK and Ireland! Mozy is one of my favourite online backup services, and now users in the UK and Ireland can sign up for Mozy and pay in their own currency instead of US Dollars. Users data will also be stored on servers in Central Europe so companies can comply with EU data regulations.
People can visit the UK version of the Mozy website at mozy.co.uk and people in Ireland can visit mozy.ie. The price for UK users is £4.99 per month for unlimited data. The cost per month drops if people sign up for a one or two year subscription. The price for users in Ireland is €4.99. Again the price per month go down for longer subscriptions.
This is a great opportunity for Mozy users in the UK, Ireland and all of Europe. Nothing like being able to pay for your online backup service in your local currency, but to also know your data is in a more local data centre.
