Hi,
I was just looking the OS/2 WWW page listing of companies who support or
sell OS/2 products and would like to request that our web page is added to this
list. Our detals are:
Company:
Computer Data Stategies, Inc. (CDS)
In 1994, CDS was formed to develop and distribute software in the OS/2 market.
Our first product was Back Again/2. The company was formed by Brent Bowlby
and Brad Benson. The company was small, Brent and Brad both working two
full time jobs. Sales and staff quickly grew, requiring a move to an office. In May
of 1992, CDS occuppied its first office. Back Again/2 has consistantly been a top
selling backup product with four product releases to date.
Computer Data Strategies, Inc. is a privately held software development and
consulting organization focused on providing data management software and
services to the computer industry.
CDS was founded in 1992 by Brent Bowlby, and grew quickly by providing consulting
services to organizations with Novell Netware(tm) and IBM LAN Server(tm) systems.
In the spring of 1994, CDS launched the first version of what would become its flagship
product, Back Again/2. Later that year, CDS merged with the developers of Back Again/2,
Box Turtle Software, and incorporated as Computer Data Strategies, Inc.
Today, CDS, Inc. is a leading developer of data protection applications for the OS/2 market.
Back Again/2 has grown into a world-class data protection facility with favorable reviews from
OS/2 Magazine, IBM Personal Systems Journal, Infoworld, and more. Also, CDS, Inc. has
formed the 32-bit Alliance in conjunction with Stardock Systems and continues to play a primary
role in that organization.
Computer Data Strategies, Inc. is located in Woodbury, Minnesota - a suburb of the
St.Paul/Minneapolis metropolitan area. We can be reached through any of the
following methods:
Telephone - 612-730-4156

OS/2 Products:
Back Again/2 Personal, Back Again/2 Professional and Back Again/2 Enterprise
Description:
Ease of use and powerful capabilities go hand-in-hand with Back Again/2 Professional.
BA/2 Pro takes full advantage of OS/2 Warp, with IBM Workplace Shell "drag and drop"
support, a built-in scheduler, password protection, and multiple levels of data
compression. A previously defined backup can be initiated by simply pointing at the
backup set object and double clicking on the mouse.
With its standalone restore facility, BA/2 Pro eliminates having to reinstall OS/2.
You're up and running in minutes. BA/2 Pro makes backing up to SCSI tape drives,
networks, removable cartridges, and even floppy disks as easy as "drag and drop".
And now, with even broader device support, BA/2 Pro is the only package for OS/2
that supports the fast and economical ATAPI/IDE tape drives.
It's Never too Late - With Back Again/2.
