Timeline Cloud Business Edition is backup for businesses of all sizes. It’s a an affordable solution to protect and backup data in a secure and reliable medium. Timeline Cloud takes advantage of the benefits of cloud-based technology to deliver a cloud disaster recovery backup solution.

Set up and deploy in minutes
Timeline Cloud requires little expertise to set up. There’s no management software to install thanks to its cloud-based management console, which is accessible from any internet-connected computer with a web browser.

The console is simple to use. It’s designed for anyone to use, not just IT administrators, and is designed to allow businesses to set up, configure and deploy a backup plan to the entire company whether containing one or 1,000 employees within minutes.

Timeline Cloud also offers Disaster Recovery features, backing up entire computers to make it possible to restore them remotely in the event of disaster, theft or data loss.

Safe and secure storage
Timeline Cloud doesn’t utilize its own proprietary backup servers; instead it takes advantage of the facilities offered by the likes of Amazon (S3), Google (Google Storage) and Microsoft (Microsoft Azure), ensuring backups are stored in multiple locations and giving the security of 99.999% uptime and reliability.

Your data is kept safe and secure at all times by being encrypted using military grade, AES 256-bit encryption before it#s uploaded to the cloud, ensuring all data transfers are secure and protected from theft, unauthorized access or cyber attack. Timeline Cloud is also compatible with Business Encrypted Drives using TrueCrypt or BitLocker for even greater data security.

Backup solution
Timeline Cloud offers three levels of deployment: automatic (via Active Directory), email and manually via a download link.

The client software is simple to install and requires no configuration before it will start backing up and with zero impact on system resources.

Uploading files to any online backup provider can take some time, particularly during the initial backup phase. Timeline Cloud utilises a number of technologies to streamline and speed up the process, making it at least four times faster than other leading online backup programs.

These technologies include remote block-level backup, which divides large files into smaller chunks. When changes are made to the file, only those chunks containing the changes are uploaded, ensuring a smaller, faster upload process. Timeline Cloud also utilises three levels of deduplication to ensure duplicate files aren#t backed up more than once.

Restoring and accessing files
Timeline Cloud provides flexibility when it comes to accessing backups. Individual users can restore lost files or revert to an earlier version of a file using the client’s Timeline Explorer view, while files can also be accessed via smartphone using a free apps for iPhone/iPad, Android and Windows that allow users to both view files and monitor the status of their current backup.

Data can also be viewed and restored via the cloud-based management console, which is capable of restoring a corrupt computer to a fully working state remotely if disaster strikes.

Affordable, catch-free backup
Timeline Cloud is designed to backup PCs running Windows: Windows Server, XP, Vista, 7 and SBS are all supported. The system is scalable, with a range of plans to suit business sizes and needs.
