What is the best way to describe Symform?
Symform is an online data protection and disaster recovery service. It is not a backup application. It’s an offsite backup to your onsite backup system. The concept was predicated on the realization that millions of businesses have computers with an excess of inexpensive storage capacity, power running 24×7, and unlimited Internet bandwidth – especially nights and weekends. Accordingly, the Symform team has developed software that aggregates this relatively unreliable and un-trusted capacity over the Internet and has transformed it into a secure and reliable global storage system. Symform provides you with secure, reliable, and inexpensive online storage. It is “cooperative” because you contribute local storage equal to the amount that you consume online.
