Special Offer on ION Backup through November 2nd

You may remember that I reviewed/beta tested Universe Point's ION backup service back in August. ION's unique selling proposition is monitored backup: they check to be sure your backup jobs have completed successfully.

Today I got the following e-mail from the ION sales department:

Dear Sallie,

Universe Point is currently running an amazing special on ION, the first monitored backup software. You will receive your ION Server or Workstation license for free (up to a $700 value) when you sign up for our monitoring service.

We have salesmen waiting by the phones to help you so give us a call (610-352-1150) or send an email to sales@universepoint.com. This offer ends on Friday, November 2nd, so don't miss this opportunity to protect and secure your data for as little as $30/month.

This special is only available if you call in or email our sales team.

I thought ION was a good product, and Universe Point provides good support (or did for me), so if you're in the market for monitored backup, you might want to take advantage of the special.

And no, I don't get a percentage. (Pity, that.)
