2009 for Eisoo and Happy New Year!
December 31st, 2009
In less than 1 hour, the year 2009 will become history. I think it will be the last-minute opportunity to share our view back on the growth of Eisoo.
The top product for 2009 is Eisoo AnyBackup 2.1. AnyBackup 2.1 is an ideal centralized disk-based backup software for small and medium businesses. We have focused on enhancing product stability and fine-tuning the documentations. The feedbacks from end users in Hong Kong and mainland China were quite positive.
In the second half of 2009, until now, we were spending lots of our time preparing new product releases. AnyBackup 3.0, with Continuous Data Protection (CDP), Virtual Media Pool (VMP), and lots of new features and bug fixes, has taken a great portion of our time. For months we have been busy testing the latest builds and preparing lots of documentation. Most of the work for AnyBackup 3.0 is about to be finished and we expect a stable public release in next few weeks. I'd like to take this opportunity to thank all of our partners that have been participated in the beta testing.
We have also spent lots of time preparing other important products that will also be released in January 2010.
Firstly, it was AnyLive 3.1. AnyLive 3.1 is a backup software for single server or PC/laptop. The server edition will come with support for Windows file server, Exchange Server and SQL Server. The server edition is expected to be bundled with Dell servers and directly sold by Dell in 2010, just like the AnyBackup.
And we were also very excited to work with Dell for a new all-in-one storage and backup device that will be called Dell PowerBackup Solution Storage and Backup Appliance. It will be an appliance that combines Dell hardwares and Eisoo backup software and storage system. Backup features for the appliance are mostly the same with AnyBackup 3.0. Storage feature includes iSCSI, online RAID expansion and many others. More details will come.
There also many achievements in AnyVault, the cloud backup platform. Beta releases will come next few months. We are also going to share more insights into the innovative solution.
Many many thanks to all of our partners and colleagues that helped make our backup solutions better in 2009. 2010 will be a more exciting year when most of the products graduate from the lab. Stay tuned and Happy New Year!
