GeekVault is an affordable, online, data back-up solution by Australia's leading provider of computer support services, Geeks2U. GeekVault came about after Geeks2U technicians became increasingly distressed with being called out to thousands of jobs a year where their valued customers had lost crucial personal and business data and it was either irretrievable or the cost of recovery was uneconomical. Our Geeks demanded a better way to do things and so should you – sign up now for as little as $9.95 a month and have all of your precious data securely backed-up to only the best Australian data centres. It’s a tiny price to pay for huge peace of mind!
FACT: 100% of Hard Drives will fail – it will happen to YOU!
Like most Australians, you probably have all of your data on a single hard drive. Stored on there will be important personal documents, such as previous tax returns, emails and contacts, through to those treasured family photos, and if you’re one of the thousands of business owners in Australia, then you’ll also have crucial business data such as your customer database, financial records and email history.
Hardware failure, a virus, fire, theft, a power surge, or even a disgruntled employee and you could be left with all of your data lost, facing thousands of dollars in service costs, just to have an assessment completed on the hard drive to be told whether anything is recoverable or not! The possibilities for how it can happen are endless (trust us we’ve seen them all!) and we can only guarantee one thing – ALL hard drives will FAIL, often without any warning whatsoever! That's the bad news. The good news is that it's simple to address.
Why GeekVault?
GeekVault is Australia's premier online back-up solution. Here's why:
- LOCAL: We backup your data to a leading Australian data centre so it’s never far away.
- SECURE: Data is encrypted using 256 bit AES “bank grade” encryption before it even leaves your computer and is then sent via a secure 128 bit encrypted SSL link.
- FAIL-SAFE: All backups are securely replicated across our network of data centres spanning the globe. All of these data centres are “bank-grade” with only the best security, uninterrupted power sources, dedicated internet connections and climate control.
- LIVE: LiveProtect™ offers constant and continuous protection – whenever a file is changed, it’s backed up.
- LIGHT: Minimal bandwidth usage – only the incremental change to a file is backed up, not the whole file, minimising your internet usage.
- SAFE: Safest form of backup – unlike a local backup, your data is not susceptible to fire, theft or the many other risks of storing your backups locally.
- SET IT. FORGET IT: Gone are the days of having to remember to regularly perform that backup which you know is so important but seldom bother to do. Once setup, GeekVault simply charges your credit card once a month for as long as you wish to use the service (there is no minimum contract) all the while fiercely protecting your data. Every photo, every email, every document, all safe with GeekVault.
- ONLINE: Access files anytime, anywhere – all you need is an internet connection. Enjoy one click file & folder sharing. Share your files with anyone with an email address.
- SHARE: Utilise your plan’s data allowance across as many PCs as you like rather than having to sign up each computer to a separate account.
- ROLL-BACK: GeekVault keeps an unlimited version history of every one of your files allowing you to roll-back to any past version at any time. Best of all, we keep these for you for free without using any of your data allowance.
Will your data be safe?
There’s nothing that Geeks2U (and GeekVault) takes more seriously than the security of our customers’ data. Not only will your data be encrypted to the same standards that banks use before it even leaves your home or office, but our servers, where the data is stored, are located in one of Australia’s leading data centres, based in Melbourne, with fully redundant power and internet connections. From here, and all the while remaining fully encrypted, your data is then replicated throughout our network of leading, secure data centres! As if all of this isn’t enough, as a final fail-safe measure we also perform our own backups on the data centre’s internal network to a secondary file vault.
What can I back-up?
Using our GeekVault backup software, you can securely back-up any data that you have stored on your hard drive, such as:
- Word and Excel documents
- Email, contacts and calendar
- Music
- Photos
- PowerPoint Presentations
- Adobe PDF Files
- Videos
Just to name a few!
