Mozy Review

BestFreeApps.com wrote a review about Mozy outlining the strengths of the service. The author especially liked how simple Mozy made backing up online.

This really is a very simple “fire and forget” setup. Nobody likes backing up. Quite frankly, it’s boring, so the job needs to be very simple and require as little effort as possible, for both backing up and restoring the data. Mozy excels in both areas.

The interface is simplicity itself. You specify which directories/files you want backed up, and Mozy backs that data up securely offline at regular intervals. It only backs up the changes since the last backup (with versioning), keeping network traffic to a minimum.

Glowing praise for Mozy indeed. Thanks for the great Mozy Review, BestFreeApps!

Check out this post on Mozy on Uri JamJari. The author has some good vibes for Mozy, particularly the way it sits quietly in the system tray without sucking up valuable system resources:

It is a very quiet low impact program that works in the background. I have been using mozy for about a month now and I have barely even noticed it was there, save for the daily notice that one of the files I have changed or added has been backed up.

Cheers Mozy.

Glad you like our service.

Tommy Keswick reviewed Mozy on his MySpace blog. He then followed it up with a post about Mozy’s blog:

A little while ago I posted on my MySpace blog about Mozy, a cool little online backup company. I’ve been quite impressed by their service so far.

Well, the people who work there started a blog. The posts so far are funny, a tad sarcastic, and even informative.

Thanks for your words, Tommy. We hope you continue to love our service and our blog!

Zoli Erdos, a Silicon Valley consultant and entrepreneurial advisor, had some good things to say about Mozy:

Mozy is an online backup service you set up once and can forget about… that is until disaster hits, i.e. you lose data. Well, with Mozy installed it’s no longer a disaster, you can conveniently pick the date you want to restore from, and voila’ – your precious data files are back!

Thanks for the Mozy Review, Zoli!

We want to recognize you, the people in the trenches going to bat for us every day on the pages of your blogs. So we plan on giving you a little hat tip on this blog and maybe we’ll see about throwing out some schwag, if we can come up with it. In the meantime, sit back, relax, and enjoy some Mozy Review action!
