Online data storage service Mozy has unveiled a new file synchronization feature for consumers and businesses to keep data up to date across all devices, from smartphones and tablets to computers.

Called Stash, the feature allows Mozy users to backup and protect files against catastrophes, as well as give people a way to access their data anytime, anywhere.

The beauty of Stash is that there's not much that needs to be done to make use of it. After installing the platform on a computer, it links a local folder with your Stash online. You can then add files to the local folder and access it via Mozy's site or mobile app. When it's linked to a computer, any changes made are synched up to the rest of your devices. Photos and videos can also be uploaded to Stash from your mobile phone or tablet.

The Stash beta service is available now for MozyHome customers with a 2 GB free, 50 GB or 125 GB plan. Stash runs on Microsoft Windows (XP and later) and Apple Mac OS X (10.5 Leopard and later). To access the beta version of the service, MozyHome customers can visit their account settings and select the Stash Beta page.

"We've been seeing a huge increase in interest and double-digit growth, which is just testament to consumers and businesses that they are becoming even more comfortable using the cloud," Gytis Barzdukas, Mozy's director of product management, told Mashable. "People understand the concept now and have faith in its security, which is why we wanted to expand our services file synchronization on any device, regardless of where you are."
