Synology and Symform Team Up to Protect Data in the Cloud

Synology today announced a new partnership with Symform, a revolutionary cloud storage and backup service, to provide users with an alternative way to backup data. By installing the SymformBeta package from Synology Package Center, users can receive 10 gigabytes of free data backup, and up to 200 gigabytes free if they join and contribute excess local drive space to the Symform Cloud Storage Network, a globally distributed, peer-to-peer cloud storage network.

"Data protection is a top business concern for users who turn to Synology NAS servers for primary local backup," said Wayne An, Product Manager of Synology Inc. "Our partnership with Symform and their distributed storage model is ideal for our community, and we believe it will bring added value to our users."
