Backups

From business continuity perspective it is imperative that your organisations information is fully backed up and in some industries this is a legal requirement from a regularity authority. The risk of Hardware failure, theft, fire, or even flooding could have disastrous consequences for any business. The ability to recover an important deleted e-mail from last month or even an internal database containing your order history for the past five years may be vital to your continued success. In addition, finding that old spreadsheet you thought you’d never need may just save you time and money. It is also possible to completely restore an entire server if necessary and in many instances this can be relatively straightforward and cost effective to implement. As the price of hard drive storage continues to fall the obvious choice of that old tape drive solution may not be as safe and cost effective as it once was. Alternatively you could opt to automatically backup your data using an offsite solution. We have a partnership agreement with an online backup provider and can offer very competitive prices based on a per gigabyte basis.
