Offers a new entry level plan designed for smaller businesses that need to protect 1 GB or less of critical data and work documents.

Verio Inc., a web hosting provider, today announced additions to its line of PC Data Backup offerings, with a new entry level plan for smaller businesses, designed to protect 1 GB or less of critical data and work documents.

According to the release, Verio PC Data Backup safeguards data stored on personal computers by automatically backing up files to a secure offsite facility, and providing customers the ability to easily restore files should any type of data loss occur, such as hard drive failure, data corruption, virus or accidental deletion.

The new 1 GB plan from Verio is targeted at small businesses that need to backup simple spreadsheets, word processing or other financial documents. Verio also offers PC Data Backup plans for businesses that need to secure higher volumes of data or larger files, such as media or graphics. Plans range up to 30 GB of storage.

“With an increasing threat to data stored on PCs, it is no longer practical for small businesses to back up customer records, financials and other information on thumb drives, or other methods that store data backups onsite,” said Dennis Boyle, Chief Operating Officer. “Verio PC Data Backup offers small businesses an easy-to-use method for protecting critical data to a secure, offsite facility, which is cost-effective.”
