With read-only access to your projects, support staff can quickly work through problems with you. If you find a bug, our support staff will pass it off to our development team and in most cases, a fix will be found, tested and released to our servers within hours not months.
Peace of Mind
Your projects are backed up in multiple data-centers on redundant drives throughout the U.S. because when hard drives fail, tornados hit or offices get broken into, it is nice to know that when you put the pieces back together, there are some parts of your life that will just be there for you.
