Installs UltraBac Disaster Recovery and H-Sphere Backup on all its servers.

Host Department, a web hosting and domain name registration provider, today announced that it has installed UltraBac Disaster Recovery from UltraBac Software, and H-Sphere Backup from H-Sphere Packages, on all its servers.

According to the company, with H-Sphere Backup, clients will now be able to download a backup copy of all files in their domain directory on their own. Additionally, it will allow clients to download or upload the backup via a web browser or they could even use a remote FTP server to store or restore their files, all directly from their web hosting control panel. This move is said to have been driven by clients' numerous and constant demands to backups and will be offered to them at no extra charge.

"We decided to go with UltraBac because it performs quick and easy image based backup and disaster recovery of an unbootable machine in minutes. In a case of an unforeseen event, the quick and easy recovery process will save us server downtimes, which is vital to our services. While UltraBac was designed for Microsoft's Windows operating system, it comes equipped with agents that allow backup from other operating systems, such as FreeBSD and Linux. These are the reasons that make it the perfect software for all our servers' backup and disaster recovery," said J. Erlando, Host Department System Administrator.
