StorageSync User’s Guide 5
File Revisioning
StorageSync can be used to back up the same file up to 20 times as different versions or
revisions. With File Revisioning, you can select the file version(s) you want to restore or
restore only the latest versions. This feature is particularly useful for managing frequently

Why StorageSync?
Your valuable data is at the mercy of the next goof-up, catastrophe, hacker, or virus. In fact,
the loss of data ranks as the greatest fear of most computer users and organizations alike, and
it always seems to happen at the worst possible time. Recovery, if possible at all, can cost
precious time and money.
Data loss occurs for a variety of reasons:
Accidental deletion Hardware or software failure
Computer theft Human error
Computer viruses Natural disasters
Environmental hazards Power outages
File corruption Virus attack
Backing up your data with StorageSync is your only insurance against data loss.

and Records Administration in Washington, D.C., 93% of companies that lose their data for
10 days or more due to a disaster filed for bankruptcy within one year of the disaster. 50% of
businesses that found themselves without data for this same time period filed for bankruptcy
immediately.
For avocational computer users, lost data can make files irretrievably ruined. This means all
the personal finances, tax information, MP3s, digital photos, and address book information
that took months, and even years, to compile are all just a fading memory.
From this, you can see that data is a valuable resource and should be managed as such, like
cash, facilities or any other asset.
