Right now, the public's need for online backup services is expanding very rapidly. Including ESG, IDC, Frost & Sullivan and others, various storage industry analysts predicted this upsurge in the market, and its continued growth.

However, the rest of the economy is slowing down, while the demand for online backup services is gaining momentum. It is a frustrating convergence of circumstances that makes it more difficult to start an online backup business at exactly the best time to do so.

The leader in providing software for emerging online backup companies, Remote Backup Systems, has announced it is cutting prices by as much as 50% in what it calls its Remote Backup Stimulus Package.

President, Rob Cosgrove, declared: "We will maintain our new lower prices at least until the economy recovers." He added: "This price cut makes our solution the most affordable in the industry. It will make our service providers the most profitable."

Cosgrove explained that RBS hopes to lower the barrier for smaller companies who want to enter the online backup market at this critical growth stage in the industry, by reducing prices, and to improve the growth of its current customers. Several new products, and upgrades to its current products have been recently announced by the company.

RBS hopes to guide more businesses profitably through these temporary rough economic times to make the most of the mushrooming market for online backup services with its Remote Backup Stimulus Package.
