Is Backup Exec Online available in the UK?


Is BE online storage available in the UK? It only appears in the US site, unless of course we purchase via the US site?

Thanks All

  • Symantec Online Storage for Backup Exec v12.x and Backup Exec 2010, is currently only available to customers located in North America.

  • There are many online backup services available on net now days. I suggest you to check user's comments for such service before finalizing any service. For current best online backup services, you can refer http://top10onlinebackup.com/.
    My personal favorite is the current topper BackupandShare.com. I have been using this service for a long time, without any problem.

  • This is recomended online backup services reviews by PC magazine

  • Are there any plans to offer this in the UK? I am very interested in the product.

  • I second that. BackupandShare.com is a highly recommanded service among others.
  • ...maybe add that to the Ideas section. Enough "thumbs up" MIGHT see it being considered for the UK!

  • However, they now also want to backup to an online hosted service, which if possible is compatible with Backup Exec. I think Symantec do a hosted backup solution for the US & Canada, but I don't think its available for the UK (I might be wrong on this). Does anyone know of any online hosting companies that would be compatible with Backup Exec? Would it just be as simple to pay for a hosted server. curt 

  • I am using  an incremental backup program with a provider which is located outside of the UK, si I think it doesn't really matter the country.

  • We have announced BE. cloud at our Vision Conference in Las Vegas early May. BE.Cloud will be available in US and European countries later this year. Main target for the product is Very Small Businesses (or remote small offices or larger corporations.

     

    We are also working on some other Cloud offering for More traditional BE customers that will also appear in te fall timeframe
