Rebit Extends "Ridiculously Simple" to the Cloud

LONGMONT, Colo., Jan. 10, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- ShowStoppers @CES 2012 -- Rebit Inc., developers of the award-winning, "ridiculously simple" backup software for consumers, professionals and small businesses, today announced Rebit Pro, offering professional-grade data protection for PCs and market-leading features for laptops.

Rebit Pro is the first hybrid cloud backup solution to deliver continuous and automatic backup, full system recovery capability, and seamless cloud integration, leveraging a single backup engine and user interface. Requiring no dedicated processes or schedules, the primary backup is made to a local USB drive or NAS, and the cloud provides an additional layer of redundancy for disaster recovery. If a user's PC is stolen, has a hard disk failure, or is disabled from a virus or malware attack, Rebit Pro enables the full system (data, applications, and system software and settings) to be restored from a user-selected point-in-time recovery point.

While Rebit Pro is designed for all users who want maximum protection for their PCs, it is ideal for professionals whose business lives are on their laptops. Rebit Pro provides a comprehensive solution for managing the increased exposure to problems this class of user experiences, compounded by the inherent risks of travel. Unlike traditional cloud backup services, Rebit Pro starts with a local full system backup and then mirrors a copy in the cloud. Rebit Pro also supports drive rotation for additional redundancy, allowing all backup targets to be continuously synchronized to maintain up-to-the-minute protection, an exclusive benefit of Rebit's proprietary single backup engine.

"We designed Rebit Pro for the large group of users, including professionals and small businesses, that need a higher level of data and system protection with the ridiculously simple ease-of-use that defines Rebit products," commented Paul Guerin, CEO, Rebit Inc. "Rebit Pro satisfies the requirements for users who want cloud storage to complement their local backup and who need full system protection so they won't be without their systems in the event they are stolen, damaged, experience a hard disk failure, or are attacked by a virus or other malware."

Rebit Pro is available now through Rebit's network of authorized partners. For more information, visit the Rebit Pro product page.
