The company says that C2 Backup has sustained high growth in the six months following the initial launch, its data centre in Frankfurt has expanded in response to the overwhelming popularity and the increasing storage demand.
According to Synology, the level of customer satisfaction is attested by the subscription rate, with over 96% of new users continuing their subscription after the free trial.
