10 . 10 4 . the belief that elearning offers no support . it is a general misconception that elearning courses offer no support for their learners . in fact , this belief prevents many individuals from enrolling , even if they are highly motivated to learn and have the time to do so . to overcome this elearning challenge , be sure to have a solid support system in place for all of your learners . offer them an faq that can help them remedy any common issues , and email or instant message support for more complicated questions or concerns . it ' s also a good idea to encourage peer collaboration . for example , you can set up a forum where learners can collaborate with one another if a problem arises , or divide the learners into groups and ask them to give feedback . let them know that working on their own doesn ' t mean that they don ' t have access to support when they need guidance or advice . bear in mind that one of the most significant advantages of elearning is that you can work at your own pace , while still being able to benefit from the experience and skills of your online peers , even if they happen to be in other regions of the world . 5 . learners can ' t see the real world implications of the elearning course . sometimes a learner is not able to see the value or benefit of the elearning course , and especially how the subject matter is going to help him / her in the real world . for learners to become truly engaged in the overall elearning process , they have to be aware of how the content is going to translate in real world settings . even the most informative elearning courses aren ' t going to be effective if learners aren ' t made aware of how the material can help to improve their lives , either personally or professionally . to tackle this elearning roadblock , you may want to integrate simulations or elearning scenarios that help the learner to see how they can apply the information they ' ve learned in real life . you can also offer them real world examples , or group collaboration projects that are based around problems or issues they might encounter regularly outside of the virtual classroom .

data backed up to the code42 cloud is retained for a short grace period prior to removal . to learn more about what happens to your data after a subscription or trial ends , see our data retention policy .
code42 ceo matthew dornquast said customers can manage endpoint backup and file sharing together in one dashboard , if they use the vendor ' s crashplan and shareplan . code42 will host customers ' backups and files on a public cloud that it maintains , but dornquast said most business customers prefer a private cloud with on - premises storage . a single console lets admins set and manage policies and security in real time for shareplan and crashplan .
a good example of this comes today from code42 . code42 is a security company that is focused on ensuring data remains safe , no matter whether it is at home , within the four walls of a business , or any point in between . the rise of cloud solutions , the burgeoning number of remote workers , and the huge uptake of byod and mobile devices has meant that the challenges around securing data have become more complex .

general term applied to locations where your files back up . destinations may be the code42 cloud , your company ' s data center , or an external hard drive . your administrator configures the destinations available to you devices .
yes . using the crashplan app ' s default settings , files deleted from your device are never removed from your backup archive . in fact , restoring lost or accidentally deleted files is one of the things code42 does best ! however , because code42 is designed as a backup service , not an online storage service , we do not recommend using it as a way to
archive
old files you no longer want stored on your computer .
the new product holds the potential for a sizable jump in sales for code42 , which has grown to $ 40 million in revenue last year from $ 10 million in 2010 — mainly from a data backup product called crashplan .
users can access their data from a wide variety of devices and operating systems—including mac , windows , ios and android . regardless which device type is used , the code42 user experience designed to be consistent from device to device .
code42 , a minneapolis software developer , on tuesday will begin distribution of a product that allows companies and consumers to swiftly synchronize and share large files across mobile devices and computers , jumping into competition with firms like dropbox and google .

through a single administration console , admins can support an unlimited number of users and adjust policies and security measures in real - time for both shareplan and crashplan enterprise endpoint backup . code42 also uniquely protects each version of every file , with no limits on version and storage .
any size organization challenged with the consumer - cloud conundrum appreciates shareplan enterprise - grade file sync and share , especially those organizations with data security and privacy policies requiring on - premises deployment ,
ann fellman , director of product marketing at code42 , told eweek .
for instance , in a recent survey of code42 enterprise customers , 81 percent stated their preference to deploy via private cloud . but here’s the deal - - when you offer this level of enterprise - grade security , visibility into the data is only as good as user adoption .
no refunds are available for crashplan for small business ( previously crashplan pro ) . your monthly crashplan for small business subscription grants you access to our backup service in advance . code42 retains your data until your subscription ends , even if you decide not to continue backing up new or changed data .

code42 will use pricing to get attention , charging businesses $ 10 per user per month for shareplan . dropbox’s business product costs $ 15 per user per month , though the company in august lowered its price to $ 10 for a product called dropbox pro , which can be used by individual - run businesses like real estate agents .
shareplan , code42 ' s efss solution , was developed internally and uses the same crashplan engine , which allows it to be more tightly integrated into the company ' s endpoint backup product and improves efficiency . if a device is lost , shareplan can initiate a selective kill , meaning specific folders are removed without wiping the entire device .
quite simply , traditional security products lack the flexibility to resolve the new set of problems that organizations face , and into this void come a number of new companies . code42 is one of these companies . headquartered in minneapolis and backed by accel partners and split rock partners , the company has snagged some high - profile customers , including expedia , proctor & gamble , and harvard .
tip : archive files on external drives if you have access to an external drive , you can move files you no longer want on your computer to the drive , then back up the drive with code42 . even if you disconnect the external drive , the drive ' s files stay in your backup archive as long as you use the default setting to never remove deleted files .

“their new office in minnesota’s technology hub offers a variety of collaborative spaces and destinations designed for bringing people together to improve communication and ultimately result in a better product for code 42 customers . the new headquarters features town hall space for company - wide gatherings and a monumental stair connecting all three floors . the office provides comfortable , creative gathering options that promote movement and collaboration between teams . amenities include a “genius bar” for walkup it support , whiteboard walls and mothers rooms . a central pantry is also equipped with a variety of snacks and beverages as well as a nitro cold brew on tap . everything is designed to keep the code42 team feeling happy , focused , and energized , with the end goal of creating the best possible experience for code42 users , ” says eastlake studio
code42 began in 2001 as a provider with a simple - to - use data backup service for consumers . as its product , called crashplan , became more robust , the company late in that decade began selling it to corporate customers . it grew in popularity as corporate it administrators coped with the proliferation of smartphones and the blurring of the lines between devices that are used for personal and corporate use .
the basic , measured rate of the data moving between the crashplan app and code42 ' s data centers , usually given in megabits per second ( mbps ) or kilobits per second ( kbps ) . this is the rate at which the compressed and encrypted data is actually transmitted . this rate does not take into account compression , and will generally be lower than the effective transfer rate or backup speed .
metrics like ltv ( lifetime value ) , cac ( customer acquisition cost ) and churn are of critical importance to a saas business . given a $ 75 billion market opportunity in the it security world , but massive competition from a plethora of companies , both early stage and more mature , payne will have to use that experience to great effect at code42 . despite different industry sectors , payne sees parallels between the two :
there are a number of significant parallels to code42 today and eloqua when it was a pre - ipo company . both companies are in fast - growing , evolving markets . both companies had established footprints with a few key enterprise customers . and , both companies have hard - working , young workforces that are committed to serving customers in order to win their respective markets . i’m looking forward to leading this team on what could be an awesome journey .
in 1995 , ibm purchased software maker lotus development for $ 3 . 5 billion , one of the biggest tech acquisitions at that time , mainly because of a product called lotus notes that safeguarded the exchange of corporate information . eventually , notes lost ground in corporate settings to e - mail and , with the arrival of mobile devices , companies ceded more control of data to employees . code42 and others are looking to restore some of that security .
code42 ' s crashplan can be implemented on - site , as a private cloud , as a public cloud or both . crashplan continuously backs up computers in the background and supports direct access of those backed up files on ios , android , windows phone and kindle devices . it leverages deduplication , compression and load balancing for network efficiency and offers data security features such as end - to - end encryption , remote device wipe and two - factor authentication .
if you’re a crashplan for home subscriber and haven’t switched your service yet , crashplan developer code42 will migrate all your existing backup data to crashplan small business instantly , add the time remaining on your home subscription to your small business subscription , and give you a 75 percent discount on your first year . this option is the easiest and quickest way to address your immediate backup needs , but you’ll have to swallow the higher long - term price—and continue using crashplan’s much - maligned java - based app . for more details and further thoughts on this change , see my tidbits article “ crashplan discontinues consumer backups . ”

with the demise of mobileme upon us , you’ll need to come up with a new backup solution if this apple service is your current backup method of choice . if you’re a fan of online , cloud - based backups , then crashplan is one to consider .
codefortytwo software’s crashplan + is an online backup program that backups all of your files over the internet . your data is stored on crashplan’s servers , and the program backs up multiple versions of your documents . you have a few different plans and price points to choose from , so it fits all sorts of needs . want to backup your external backup drive ? no problem—crashplan + can do that , too .
the option to backup to multiple destinations means you will never be out of luck in case of a crash : if something happens to one backup location ( like your macbook ) , you’ll still have it on crashplan’s local server . you can easily restore it from another machine .
the version i tested here was crashplan + unlimited . ( read on for details of each crashplan + package . ) i synced backups between an imac and crashplan central , the software’s online backup location . i restored files to a macbook pro from crashplan central , and also used the ios app to access files .
the first step is figuring out which plan is the one for you . crashplan + offers three basic plans : crashplan + ( starts at $ 1 . 50 per month for 10gb of online storage and one computer ) , crashplan + unlimited ( starts at $ 3 per month for unlimited online storage and one computer ) , and crashplan + family unlimited ( starts at $ 6 a month for unlimited online storage between two to ten computers ) . pick the one that best matches your storage needs , and then customize your payment plan . you can opt for a month - to - month payment plan , or yearlong subscriptions after that ( pick between one and four years : four years gives you the best value ) . crashplan offers a free month - long trial if you’d like to try a plan out first before committing .
crashplan ' s desktop app shows you the progress of your backup . you can also restore files straight from the app .
once you’ve downloaded the software , you’re ready for your first backup . backing up to crashplan is super simple : once you’ve purchased your plan and downloaded the software , crashplan will automatically run backups at your specified backup time . i like to have mine always running , so it backs up as i edit and save new things ( it can save open files on os x , which gives me the ultimate peace of mind ) .
like all backup systems , your first backup takes a while , but all backups after that are significantly quicker . because crashplan stores your backups on their own servers—and because the backup occurs online—your first backup will be painfully slow . my imac took about four days for 490gb to save . subsequent backups are much quicker , as crashplan compresses data before the backup is sent .
restore your files to any computer with crashplan + ' s web restore option .
in case of a crash , or if you’re setting up a new computer , there are a few different ways to restore your data . to restore something on your mac that’s registered with crashplan , open the software app and click the restore tab along the right - hand side . you’ll see two dropdown menus : select the computer to restore files on by way of the top dropdown menu ; select the files from the correct backup destination from the bottom dropdown . to restore everything , select the catchall top box to select every file on your drive , then hit restore ; or , select individual files or folders .
another way to restore data is through a crashplan central web restore . login to your account on crashplan’s website , then select the computers tab along the left - hand side . you’ll see a list of the computers associated with your account ; click the restore button next to the computer you’d like to restore from . just like restoring from your desktop software , you can restore your complete backup , or just choose specific files . your selected backup will download as a zip folder . plus , you can use web restore from any computer—all you need is a web browser .
although there’s no limit on the size of the individual file that you restore , you’re limited to 250mb for a web restore . recovering your complete backup via web restore is likely to take a few zip files .
the crashplan app makes it easy to access files on the go : open files on your ios device with just a tap .
one question i had was in regard to crashplan’s privacy and safety measures . crashplan + promises an enterprise - grade 448 - bit encryption to secure your files before they’re even backed up . this ensures that only you can access your files from the main crashplan server .
with a crashplan , well , service plan , you can access your files through crashplan’s suite of ios apps . opening files through the app is a breeze . on the home screen of the app , you’ll see the devices you’ve backed up using crashplan listed on the left . select a device , and you’ll see the folders from your backups . navigate the folders , find the item , tap it , and the file downloads to your device .
the app and the mac software work completely in tandem—not only can you download files , you can check on the status of your backup , which comes in handy during your long first backup .
the crashplan app is available for both the ipad and the iphone , though i greatly prefer the ipad version for its clean interface , and it clearly wins for editing documents . the app is compatible with any version of crashplan .
crashplan + is easy to use , has a clean interface , and can be customized to fit different backup needs . different payment options also make it an affordable choice . plus , crashplan + ’s three restore options—app integration , web - based recovery on any computer , and desktop recovery—work seamlessly well together .

code 42 software raises $ 52 . 5m to raise profile for online backup | venturebeat
the ai event of the year for growth marketers . aug . 21 - 22
the best in ai . an invite - only executive event . oct . 22 - 23
code 42 software has been growing quietly in the background , providing online backup for consumers and enterprises . but after a decade of growth , it’s ready to raise its sales and marketing profile . so the company is announcing today it has raised $ 52 . 5 million from accel partners and split rock partners .
online backup has become a crowded and important market , now that both consumers and enterprises are generating a mountain of data , much of it stored in an unsecure manner on laptops , mobile devices and other gadgets . code 42’s ambition is to expand its sales and marketing so that it becomes the storage backup of choice when you want to protect your data .
matthew dornquast , chief executive and founder at minneapolis - based code 42 software , said in an interview that the company now has more than 100 petabytes of data backed up with its software and hardware . it has backed up more than 100 billion files and gets 250 million new unique files per day .
the services includes crash plan , an automatic backup system for consumers ; crash plan pro for small businesses ; and the crash plan pro hardware and software backup service for enterprises .
code 42 has some interesting approaches to the business . it embraces a freemium model , allowing you to back up your data to friends’ sites for free and to back up your data from different locations for free . the backup to friends method helps with the viral spread of code 42 .
it’s a good time to expand because the number of devices in the home and the enterprise that need backup — from phones to video recorders — is increasing every day . much of that data is personal , so it is increasingly important to store it in a secure way .
“there are all sorts of new devices that are generating data , and the question is how you can manage the data effectively , ” dornquast said .
in 2008 , the company expanded into enterprise backup and it now has 4 , 000 enterprise customers . many of those , including google , have taken the company up on its private data cloud service , where the customer takes control of the management of the data in the cloud .
ping li , a partner at accel , said in an interview , said , “code 42 is a good example of the consumerization of it . they span everything from the consumer , who likes the apple - like user interface , but do so in a sophisticated way that gets them into the enterprise . ” the investment is the first from accel’s “ big data ” fund aimed at infrastructure and application companies associated with gathering huge amounts of data .
rivals include carbonite and mozy in the consumer market and iron mountain , now owned by hp , in the enterprise . rivals such as box and dropbox have more sharing and collaboration focus . carbonite in particular is better known because it advertises all over the place .
“we come from a model of protection , while others focus on sharing , ” dornquast said . “a lot of our customers use us to build their own private clouds where they control it . ”
code 42 sells its software as a service or through perpetual licenses . for enterprises , that amounts to $ 5 to $ 10 a month for each computer and $ 6 a month for consumers .
the company has 86 employees and plans to double that this year . the company was founded in 2001 by brian bispala , mitch coopet and dornquast and it never raised venture capital until this round with accel . it has been profitable every year . in the last three years , revenue has grown 500 percent . dornquast said his firm will use the money for a sales and marketing expansion as well as research and development .
dornquast said the company is interested in acquisitions and made an acquisition last year of a mobile development team .
nothing elicits such a strong case of technology guilt as asking other people if they back up their computers . eyes dart toward the ground . excuses are made . the subject is quickly changed .
as many people know or quickly find out , backing up a computer can be a painfully slow process . this week , i tested a computer - backup system that requires minimal effort and works in the background to automatically back up files : crashplan . this appropriately named program is made by code 42 software , a minneapolis - based company .
crashplan works with all types of operating systems and lets users back up to remote servers in the cloud and / or other computers or hard drives , like another pc they own or one belonging to a good friend or family member ( as long as they give permission ) . the system also sets no restrictions on file size .
on a typical home internet connection , the backup process to a crashplan remote server could take several days or even weeks for a first - time backup . ( after that , backups are much faster and happen unnoticed . ) the first - time backup for one of my laptops with about 46 gigabytes of data had been running almost continuously for three days when i filed this column on tuesday . after the initial backup , regular backups won’t take nearly as long . crashplan has a mobile app that works on apple’s ipad , iphone and ipod touch , android and windows phone 7 , allowing remote access to backed - up files .
the free version of crashplan enables a daily backup to other computers and hard drives but not to code 42’s remote servers . the subscription - based crashplan + will back up to the remote servers as well as other computers or hard drives . it can back up as often as once a minute and lets users choose what data to back up where .
crashplan’s straightforward user interface clearly shows what your data are doing and where they are being stored .
crashplan + comes in three payment plans , each with its own tiered rates — from a month - to - month option to a four - year subscription . for each of the three plans , the four - year subscription is the least expensive at $ 70 , or about $ 1 . 50 a month per computer for up to 10 gigabytes of data ; $ 140 or $ 3 monthly per computer for unlimited storage ; and $ 288 or $ 6 monthly for up to 10 computers and unlimited storage . the company offers a free 30 - day trial .
i got started by downloading the software to my macbook , creating an account and starting the initial backup . a scan of my data took a few minutes before the actual backup began . using my verizon dsl connection over wi - fi , the estimates of how long it would take changed dramatically by the second . i saw estimates of as much as 17 . 5 days and as little as 6 . 6 hours .
i also downloaded crashplan onto my office windows pc , which has a fast , hard - wired ethernet connection . i logged into my account and opted to back up a folder of photos that was roughly 16 gigabytes . the estimate for this backup was a little over one day , though i didn’t adjust crashplan settings to get the fastest transfer on this pc . in a simple menu , i could opt to back up the windows pc to my macbook as well as to remote servers — or just to the macbook alone . on my macbook , i made sure to adjust the settings to get the fastest speed possible for my giant backup .
code 42 ceo matthew dornquast said the worst - case scenario speeds are initially displayed , but that these adjust down as time goes on . in my experience , the initial estimates didn’t change much .
crashplan backs up your newest files first on the assumption those mean the most to you , and it encrypts all files , so file names can’t be read on remote servers or backup computers . i liked crashplan’s straightforward user interface because it clearly showed me what my data were doing and where it was being stored . a section labeled “destinations” let me choose where data was backed up and options included “crashplan central” ( remote servers ) , “friend , ” “another computer” or “folder . ” a section labeled “files” showed exactly what was being stored ; in my case , this meant 285 , 930 files . an “inbound” section showed any computers that were using my computer for backup .
a crashplan mobile app is available on a windows phone 7 , iphone and android phone .
in settings , users can opt to be emailed or even sent direct messages via twitter that tell them the latest backup status . this is helpful if you’re only backing up to , say , one other pc in your house and that pc fails to back up .
in addition to over - the - air backups , crashplan users with a lot of data , very little patience or both may want to try an alternate option . for $ 125 ( including shipping both ways ) and a monthly fee for remote storage , the company will send a one - terabyte hard drive that can be loaded with data and mailed back . once that huge block of data is initially stored on remote servers , regular backups won’t take nearly as long .
to get data back , a “restore to your door” feature will send you a hard drive filled with your data so you can load it onto a new computer . this also costs $ 125 ( with shipping both ways ) and the monthly cost of remote storage .
compared with competitors , crashplan fares well . for example , crashplan doesn’t limit upload or download speeds , while carbonite limits upload speeds for large amounts of data after a certain amount has been backed up , further slowing the process . mozy supports external drives , but this backup is deleted if the drive is disconnected or turned off for more than 30 days . crashplan keeps the backup indefinitely , waiting for the drive to be reconnected .

matthew dornquast started the company in 2001 , says payne will lead
next big wave .
the appointment , announced tuesday , climaxes a leadership transition that began in late may when matthew dornquast relinquished control of the firm , which he led from its start in 2001 to about $ 65 million in revenue last year .
in his last role , payne led toronto - based eloqua inc . , a provider of marketing software , from $ 11 million to $ 125 million in six years before it was purchased by oracle corp . in 2013 .
it ' s that kind of growth we ' d like to aim for here ,
payne said .
it ' s a long journey , but it is really satisfying when you do it right .
dornquast and the company ' s other co - founders and board have been planning for the change for some time . over the past six weeks , another co - founder , mitch coopet , served as acting chief executive . the company hired a national recruiting firm to line up candidates and said that dornquast participated in the search .
the company , best known for its crashplan product for both enterprises and consumers , for the past year focused more intensively on the business market and doubled its revenue among large companies . in october last year , it also moved into the data synchronization space with shareplan , which was designed to swiftly share large files across mobile devices and computers . that product moved the company more squarely into competition with firms like dropbox and google .
the underpinnings of the culture are very strong ,
payne said .
the customer retention rate is 95 percent and our net promoter score , which measures the satisfaction of customers , is the highest i have seen for a provider of business - to - business software .
