Synopsis

Abstract

This IDC study examines the ways in which online home office households store entertainment, personal, or business data, the extent to which they back up data on a regular basis, and the technologies used for backup.

"The amount of computer-based information, including data, music files, and digital images, that U.S. households are amassing continues to increase at a rapid rate," says Merle Sandler, senior research analyst in IDC's Home Office Market program. "Home office households, which typically have both PCs and high-speed Internet access, are especially active in their use of digital content, but like other households, they are still relatively unsophisticated when it comes to storing and backing up their data. This has resulted in a greenfield opportunity for vendors of storage and backup products and services."
