I’m a big fan of online backup – particularly for business data. As far as I’m concerned backups need to be automatic, and they need to be off-site. Anything less than this still leaves you vulnerable to data loss.

One important consideration when choosing an online backup service is whether multiple PCs are supported. I’ve been using Angel Backup – http://www.angelbackup.com – for over a year now to back up all my business PCs. I’ll never go back to manual tape backups now. Online is the way to go – automatic, secure and off-site!

That’s an interesting post, thanks Sean!

Incidentally, ShadowProtect does support Live Backups (if by “Live Backups” you mean the ability to image/backup your system without stopping any of your applications and without shutting down your operating system). ShadowProtect also supports imaging to (and restoring from) CD, DVD, and Blu-ray.

I’m sorry if our docs didn’t make that clear.
