Innovation Allows Users to Easily Sync and Store Copes of Files–Even
Entire Hard Drives–At Remote Locations; No Expensive Backup Service
                                Needed

LAS VEGAS–(Business Wire)–Siber Systems, Inc., a leading productivity provider, today
announced GoodSync Version 6.7 at the Showstoppers technology event at
the International Consumer Technology Show (CES) 2008 in Las Vegas. As
the latest iteration of the top-rated backup and synchronization
product for personal computers, GoodSync Version 6.7 now offers
support for Web-based transfers via FTP or WebDAV protocols, making it
easy to upload and maintain copies of files at distant locations for
the ultimate in disaster protection.

GoodSync Version 6.7 has quickly risen to the top of the
backup/synchronization utility category due to its dependability,
flexibility, speed and one-click operation. The product, which has
garnered top ratings from PC World, Computer Shopper, Network World
and other well-known publications, supports file synchronization
between computers and/or hard drives via USB cable, local networks and
the Web.

With the addition of WebDAV and FTP standards, remote backups over
the Internet will be faster than ever. Users can now synchronize and
backup files or entire disks to remote servers without having to sign
up for an expensive backup service provider. What’s more, website
owners can now utilize GoodSync to upload and maintain website files.

File Transfer Protocol (FTP) and Web-based Distributed Authoring
and Versioning (WebDAV) are the most common technologies today for
transferring and managing large amounts of file information over the
Internet. FTP uses the Internet’s TCP/IP protocols for fast data
transfer, while WebDAV, an extension to the HTTP protocol, allows
users to collaborate on, and even alter, files via the Web.

“FTP and WebDAV are the most popular Internet-based file sharing
protocols. Their addition to GoodSync’s lineup of transfer standards
keeps GoodSync at the forefront of the backup and synchronization
field,” said William Carey, vice president of marketing for Siber
Systems. “We believe showstoppers attendees, as well as our large user
base, will be pleased and impressed by GoodSync’s ability to handle
the most sophisticated backup challenges.”

Fast Growing Category

With the advent of inexpensive, or even free, online storage
providers, PC users have exciting new options for storing, accessing
and sharing files securely from virtually any location.

GoodSync complements this fast-growing trend by making it easy and
fast to backup and/or synchronize large amounts of
information–photos, music, videos, even entire hard drives–over the
Web.

GoodSync supports backups to multiple devices and features both
one-way and bi-directional synchronization making it easy to update
the user’s most recent information. Real-time action monitoring, an
easy-to-understand tree-based interface, and automatic settings
simplify GoodSync’s operation, adding to the user’s peace of mind.
