The importance of Mobile Backup

Reading through countless of articles on the web regarding mobile backup it's easy to see that the number one point argued is that company data is critical and if lost it can cripple a company and it's daily activities. It is said that 50 to 70% of companies that lose company data will go out of business within 1 year of initial data lost. All the contacts, calendar and important txt msgs that are lost are nearly impossible to collect again. On a number of recent studies, contacts, calendar and short txt msgs are still the most desired mobile data to be backed up.

Especially in today's business culture, more and more company's conduct important deals etc using short text msgs. With so much important information being stored in a mobile phone it is evident that it can not be lost and if it is lost it is information that can not be found again.

I have heard many stories of high ranked managers in big organisations who have lost their mobile data involving some sort of mobile phone mishap. The most common one is that they have left their phone in their jacket pocket and then when lent over to pick something up their mobile phone has dropped into the sea or toilet. 6000 mobile phones are lost in Finland alone in taxis, this doesn't include all the other incidents which mobile phones have been lost or damaged. In London 60,000 mobile phones are lost in taxis alone each year, that is a staggering amount of phone data lost.

Today new phones do come with PC Software included which allows the users to transfer mobile phone data to a computer. This said the user must be very close to a computer to use blue tooth technology or connected through a USB cable. This system is run by sync ml technology which means any changes made on either computer or phone will be updated. So what happens if you lose the phone? You can not restore the data to a new phone.

SC BackUp is tool used as an insurance for mobile data, allowing users to backup and secure their important mobile phone data e.g. contacts, calendar and short txt msgs. SC BackUp also allows users to manage their mobile data by transferring their mobile data to another phone. Some many companies and private users are discouraged when contemplating upgrading to a newer phone model. SC BackUp has squashed this concern by allowing users to cross transfer their mobile data into a new supported phone. In just a few clicks all the mobile data stored in a phone will be migrated and stored into a new phone.

My hope is that more people will become aware of the importance of backing up their mobile data.

SC BackUp goes live!

Last week was an exciting time for Softconnection because now SC BackUp, the next generation mobile phone backup, can be downloaded straight to a mobile phone straight from the website http://www.scbackup.fi/.

What started as an idea a few months ago, Softconnection developed a SC BackUp edition that could be downloaded from the website straight to the users phone after registration. Once the user has downloaded the application they can purchase the user rights of the application by paying from the phone. If the user is an existing user all they have to do is enter their user code which they would have received during the first time of activation of the SC BackUp.

This is really our plan at Softconnection in making our mobile applications easy to access and use. With SC BackUp being live on line it is accessible for any user willing to pay only 3€ a month for the application. We now hope to deliver SC BackUp not only to corporations but also to private users all over the world.
