Last week I was attending a meeting with an important OEM client, only to find that I’d forgotten to move a PowerPoint file (that was a major part of the presentation) from my desktop PC to my presentation/travel laptop.  That’s unlike me; usually I’ve triple checked before getting on the plane.  Perhaps this time I was distracted by the heavy snow, the thought of missing sledding with my 4 year old, or the 1am and 4am wake up calls from our 6 month old! Either way, the file wasn’t there.

I was just about to panic when I remembered KeepVault! Specifically I remembered that my KeepVault Pro account backs up files in real-time (so the moment I created, edited, and saved the presentation it was backed-up) AND that I could access all of the protected files from any of my PCs via the web at http://web.keepvault.com.   A few minutes later the file was safely back on my laptop and the pitch was a success (as far as it could be considering those early morning baby cries!).

In all honesty, it’s the first time I’ve had to use KeepVault in a pinch, but I’m really glad it was there!
