LOS ANGELES, Oct. 3, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Online backup and cloud storage provider, IDrive Inc., announced its new app for Windows 8 mobile device users. The recent release is right on par with the award winning, offsite data protection and online backup company's leading reputation.
The IDrive app for Win8 provides accurate and secure backups for mobile data with easy-to-use features and improved security. "I'm very excited about this app because, at IDrive, we know the importance of offering services that work on various platforms," said Raghu Kulkarni, CEO of IDrive Inc. "People use a mixture of devices and it's essential to provide them with the ability to use our service across all devices and platforms. Our goal is to constantly improve our products in order to meet the needs of our users and ensure the highest quality service."
The new app includes features such as:
- Backup and restore contacts, photos, videos and calendar events.
- Access and manage the files and folders in your account from your mobile.
- Multiple file upload / folder upload features.
- Manage multiple files (multiple file selection).
- Share files / folders with anyone.
- Read documents, watch videos, and listen to music.
- 256-bit AES encryption with the option for a private key.
IDrive is one of the first online backup providers to release an app for Win8. Currently, other backup options only retrieve data, whereas the IDrive Windows 8 app is designed to backup, share, as well as retrieve. The app also provides the advantage of heightened security with its option for a private key encryption code. With a private key, no one can access the data except the user, not even IDrive employees, because the key is not stored anywhere on IDrive's servers. This feature ensures customer privacy and advances the security of the data.
IDrive Online Backup for Windows Phone provides reliable data protection with the benefit of backing up unlimited devices to the same account for no additional charge. Users can link PCs, Macs, and mobile devices to access their data anytime, anywhere. The IDrive app for Win8 is currently available in the Windows Phone Store.
