We have learned that the New York Times is writing an article on how small businesses should manage their intellectual property, including recommendations for small businesses on how to avoid mistakes. Since intellectual property is irreplaceable data, then backing up/storing that data in the cloud is a smart business decision for all small businesses. We plan on communicating that perspective to the NYT and would like to include a Jungle Disk customer reference. We think it would be interesting to other small businesses to learn from a real world example where you had a hardware or other failure, but since you had proactively backed up your IP, your business still had your data available via Jungle Disk.
Please send a direct reply to marcom@jungledisk.com with a contact name, phone number, email, business name and short description of the specific situation or experience where back up protected your IP. Story deadlines are typically tight so we would really appreciate hearing from you by the end of the day on Tuesday, May 5th.
Thank you,
Erika Brookes
VP of Marketing and Sales

Please be sure to post a link to this article when it is published. I have not had a customer experience a failure yet, but I am always looking for information that supports my recommendation that they deploy a remote backup solution for their data.
Keep up the good work!

Hi Erika:
If possible, we’d like to keep our business name confidential. But we are happy to share a recent experience with Jungle Disk.
Our business uses an external drive to store images of works we treat, documenting the course of the treatment and final outcome. A few weeks ago the external drive decided to kick the bucket and it wasn’t very old. The day the drive died, we had a very important client coming in and we needed to show some images. Thankfully, we had everything backed up to Jungle Disk. It was easy to locate the files we needed for that particular client. And we were able to restore all the files without losing anything.
Jungle Disk makes it easy to manage the back up and as I said, it was easy to restore the files too.
Please let me know if you need any more information.
Thanks,
Michelle

Is there a phone number to reach anyone at JungleDisk? I’m attempting to include this offering in an article I’m writing, but I’m lacking specifics about the product and e-mail hasn’t been returned and I find no phone listing for your company.
Thanks,
Lucas.
