Back Again/2 Personal Edition 4.0 Now Available With A New Lower Price!
WOODBURY, MN., August 27, 1996 - Computer Data Strategies, Inc., is pleased to
announce the availability of its newest release of Back Again/2 Personal
Version 4.0.
"Back Again/2 Personal Edition is the perfect backup solution when paired with
the rapidly growing removable cartridge market, such as the Iomega Zip or Jaz
drive," said Brent Bowlby, President of CDS. "The disaster recovery features
instills peace of mind, especially when upgrading to the next version of
OS/2."
Back Again/2 Personal 4.0 gains many of the advanced features of Back Again/2
Professional such as the Workplace Shell Scheduler folder. You can schedule a
backup set, program, or REXX script to execute at a specified date and time by
simply dragging it into the new backup scheduler folder. "This feature alone
makes the price of Back Again/2 Personal 4.0 an incredible value," Said Brent
Bowlby "Stand alone scheduler utilities can cost $100.00 or more."
The interface for selecting files to be backed up or restored has been
completely redesigned to be network aware and eliminate the "drive scanning".
An estimate feature has been added to show the total number of files/bytes to
be backed up, and BA/2 can now detect all Novell, IBM LAN Server, IBM Warp
Server, and IBM Warp Connect machines you are currently logged on to and
display them in the file selection window automatically.
A new, simplified interface for selecting drives to be backed up has been
added. This "Quick Backup" interface makes selecting drives for backup as well
as selecting the desired backup type and compression type extremely simple.
Back Again/2 Personal Edition supports backup to floppy disk, hard disk, File
Server and removable cartridges.
The new price of Back Again/2 Personal is $39.00 plus shipping, available
directly from Computer Data Strategies, Inc. The upgrade price from earlier
versions of Back Again/2 Personal Edition is $19.95 plus shipping. Customers
who took advantage of the Back Again/2 Personal 3.x Summer 96 promotional
campaign will automatically receive this upgrade free of charge.
Other members of the Back Again/2 family are Back Again/2 Professional Edition
and Back Again/2 Enterprise Edition. Back Again/2 Professional supports
removable cartridge drives, SCSI tape backup drives, and ATAPI/IDE tape backup
drives; Back Again/2 Enterprise adds support for automated tape libraries and
autoloaders in addition to the devices supported by Back Again/2 Professional
Edition.
