Nivio, the online computing utility, has launched NivioLite Free, a free online storage and backup facility created to ease data security risks. With increasing threat of data loss, theft and compromised user privacy, this new service from Nivio allows people to greatly reduce these risks by providing safe online data storage for critical information.
Anyone signing up for NivioLite Free receives 1GB of secure storage absolutely free. Users needing additional storage space can simply purchase extra storage on a pay-per-use basis.
Alternatively, for a small fee of just Rs 208.5 a month, users can upgrade to Nivio Full Service, which allows full access to Nivio’s virtual Windows Desktop where one can create and edit files. This would include the nDrive, a user intuitive tool that facilitates a quick transfer of files between a local computer and the Nivio online desktop.
The cloud-based nDrive gives users 5 GB of storage with the ability to buy more on a pay-per-use basis. nDrive’s ‘drag and drop’ function also means that transferring files between a computer and Nivio is as simple as dragging them onto a traditional USB stick, but without all the hassle of traditional hardware. nDrive will be available to users as early as mid-February.
With these newly launched services from Nivio, files can be accessed anytime, anywhere - from any Internet-enabled computer. This makes it particularly useful for people who work from different locations.
Nivio’s CEO Sachin Duggal, says, “With the nDrive and NivioLite offerings, there is no need for USB sticks or portable hard drives. Data from any computer can now be backed-up on Nivio making it safe from viruses and thus, reducing the risk of data loss. With the nDrive and NivioLite, anything that is backed-up is always online and ready to be retrieved whenever it’s needed”.
