Cucku Backup v2.0 Reviews
I'd like to share some of the great coverage we received for the Cucku Backup v2.0 launch yesterday.
Jason Perlow from ZDNet talks about the new support for multiple backup partners in Cucku Backup Pro:
For example, this is ideal for families with who have several children in college, where the PC at home is the "mothership" which contains the backups for the remote students. If Junior accidentally crashes his hard drive away at school and needs a copy of his graduate thesis that he's been working on for several months, no problem - he can get it from dad's PC at home, because CUCKU runs transparently in the background.

Over at GigaOm Janko Roettgers likes our "sneakernet" backup seeding. This is the ability to send your first backup on an external hard drive and then only send new and changed files over the Internet:
I must admit that I was skeptical when I first heard about Cucku. However, I love the idea of an easy way to combine online with sneakernet backups, and I liked what I saw when I played a little with the new Cucku version over the last few days.

Dong Ngo at C|Net mentions Cucku for small businesses. Small companies can backup their critical data to a founder's PC at home. Larger businesses can benefit from backing up between sites. The new command line online backup capability of Cucku Backup Pro even allows you to run Cucku as a backup server for all your laptop users:
With these new features, Cucku's Backup Pro is intended for home users and those who need their backup replicated to multiple computers for better protection against disasters. Also, this makes Cucku a viable backup solution for small businesses
- Cucku online backup goes pro
At InternetNews.com Alex Goldman discusses the huge time saving of using the backup export feature. This works both ways - you can also export files from a partner for restore:
The second advantage is time: it can take advantage of the full speed of the local network which likely exceeds any connection to the Internet, especially the meager upstream that most home users and many small businesses deal with.
