Extend Your Network Attached Storage Device to the Cloud
Symform easily extends onsite NAS devices to the cloud for secondary backup and disaster recovery. Best practices in data storage and backup include both a local and offsite backup strategy. Symform currently has a direct integration with three top NAS manufacturers, allowing customers to quickly install and configure Symform NAS cloud backup directly on their devices. Customers using other NAS brands can still backup their device to the Symform cloud by installing Symform on another supported platform and connecting via their network.
