Extend Your QNAP Network Attach Storage Device to the Cloud
Symform easily extends onsite storage 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. Currently, Symform integrates with QNAP network attach storage devices, but we will be integrating with additional NAS devices soon.
Benefits of Using Symform With a NAS Device
Customers who leverage the Symform cloud with the QNAP NAS appliance benefit from economy, high performance, and optimal security from both QNAP and Symform:
- Affordable online storage: Symform provides up to 200 GB free storage, or unlimited cloud storage for a flat fee starting at just $20.00 per month (per QNAP device bay).
- Fast appliance to cloud backup and restore: Symform technology enables users to more quickly and easily upload or download data between their QNAP unit and the Symform cloud, with innovative seeding technology and instant restore capability.
- No file size limit: Users can back up all files to the Symform cloud, including CAD/CAM files, media images, or other large files.
- Data Synchronization: Users can also use Symform to synchronize critical data directly from a QNAP device, between multiple QNAP devices, or between a QNAP device and other devices, such as laptops or tablet PCs.
- Strong data encryption: Symform employs military-grade data encryption for all data in the Symform Cloud Storage Network.
- Data Redundancy for disaster recovery: By leveraging the RAID architecture in the QNAP NAS and the Symform cloud, users can create a multilayered redundancy architecture to ensure that their data is safe and can be accessed in the event of any outage or data loss.
