Campbell, Calif. (May 15, 2013) - Inspired by this week's news that Google is unifying storage across its products, Barracuda Networks announced a bold new program increasing the amount of free cloud storage for its own Copy users from 5GB to 15GB. Copy is a new online file syncing, sharing and storage service built on the secure Barracuda Cloud. Since its public debut less than 90 days ago, Copy already is approaching half a million users worldwide. "We think Google's effort here is great, and we are eager to join in by providing current and new Copy users with a matching amount of free space," said Guy Suter, GM Storage, at Barracuda Networks. "We believe people deserve lots of storage to realize the full benefits of using the cloud. They also should be able to control what files count against their capacity. For our part, Copy's free space now at 15GB, our awesome referral program, our incredibly low-paid storage plans, and our 'Fair Storage for All' initiative are all aimed at helping people do more amazing things." Beyond the now standard 15GB of free storage, Copy users also can benefit from the Copy referral program and the "Fair Storage for All" initiative:
Copy was created to meet the exceedingly high design demands of today's online and mobile users, and to provide the advanced security and corporate features required for businesses. Additional highlights of the service include:
