Backup is like cleaning your teeth - we all know we should do it, but perhaps we don't do it often enough.
Backup addresses a number of needs, from accidentally deleting one or two files, to recovering from a full-scale disaster, ranging from a sudden hard disk failure to something like a fire. If you think about it, your data may be worth a whole lot more to you than the hardware it is stored on. If somebody took the computer you are sitting in front of now along with all the data on it, would your business survive?
For a full backup solution, you probably need two or more backup methods, but for your day-to-day backup needs, one really convenient option that has recently become much more feasible is to backup to "the cloud". What this means is that your machines are set to upload your files securely to a location on the internet. This gets them out of the building, and out of reach of natural disasters such as fire or flood. Best of all, it can be set up so you are barely aware it is happening - nothing to remember, so that the procrastination that can affect us all from time to time doesn't compromise your backups.
As part of the solution, it is important to sample the backups from time to time and make sure they are actually happening and do actually work. We can help you build a full around online backup that mean you always have recent copies of your data, but without the manual chores that have been associated with performing regular backups hitherto.
Moving on from this, we can also help you arrive at a full business continuity solution should disaster strike.
