Novosibirsk reg., Russia -- (SBWIRE) -- 12/06/2011 -- Novosoft LLC, an international software development and IT consulting company, reports a significant growth in popularity of Handy Backup, the line of data backup software solutions, by public of popular computer tech shows (like Russia’s largest IT expo Softool, Moscow, Oct. 25 – 28). Among factors causing the trend, Novosoft experts point out a common increase in data protection tools, recent powerful updates and refinements in the Handy Backup functionality, and ongoing partnerships with local market leading software providers (like the 1C company).

"As an old joke has it, there are only two types of experienced computer users: those who back up and those do already back up. Years of passionate struggle for making it only a joke, i.e. spreading the word on basic data protection were spent to help people to realize the vital necessity of data backup. And finally it pays off even more than we could expect!" said Dan Chernov, Handy Backup’s partnership director.

"With every new tech expo we visit, like the recent Softool in Moscow, more and more people demonstrate interest in Handy Backup. Generally, we speak about tech experts and experienced users here, as those are the most common guests of IT shows. But still we believe the formula is universally simple: develop a powerful yet cost-efficient tool and make it easily available via developed partner networks, and users will find you," added Mr. Chernov.

The product is oriented toward powerful backup software features, easy personalization, attractive prices, and major product availability.

Functionally, Handy Backup has been through a number of refinements recently, getting brand new powerful backup software plug-ins for backing up data carefully (e.g. MS SQL Server and MS Exchange Server backup), intelligent interface (with pre-specified data backup tasks and backup software notifications), and performance optimization (for example, high speeds for backup of large data).

Naturally, Handy Backup is a platform: its features are developed both by Novosoft experts and user community (with the Handy Backup Software Development Kit). The plug-in system helps to get the backup software personalized: enabling the required options, disabling the unneeded ones, and paying only for what you actually use.

Novosoft highly prioritize getting Handy Backup universally available.
