Beta Test Ends - Please Note:
The BRU 16 Beta Program has ended. We appreciate the feedback that all
of the testers provided. If you did not get in on the Beta program, demo versions
of BRU 16.0 will be available very soon.
If you have somehow downloaded a copy of 16.0 Beta and are having problems with
the license process, we apologize, but additional licenses are no longer being
generated for the Beta version. Therefore, the Beta copy of BRU that you downloaded
will not function with the license info provided. As mentioned above, you will
be able to download a demo version within the next week.
Ugrade plan - Customers who have purchased BRU 15.1 on or following February 24,
2000 will automatically be upgraded to BRU 16.0.
The enhanced version 16.0 forms the foundation bridge to the upcoming
BRU-Pro backup solution that will provide enterprise level backup services.
Version 16.0 will remain the backup solution of choice for commercial
applications not requiring the breadth of support of BRU-Pro.
BRU 16.0 retains the reliable, proven functionality of its earlier versions that
assures accurate restores while it undergoes functional enhancements to
accommodate the changing requirements of backup today, and into the future.
Most of the changes to BRU 16.0 will be transparent to users, but several
enhancements will be obvious:
- The addition of a Web interface to manage backups remotely
- Improved write efficiency achieved by reducing file format overhead
- Software compression performance that significantly optimizes tape capacity
- Distribution on CD and activation via a software key
