Why Remote Back up?
-
To protect your data against environmental damage
Fire, lightning and floods will not only destroy your computer and data but will also destroy all your onsite backups. With a remote backup system in place data will be protected.
-
To protect your data from theft
Computer theft is a very real problem. And very rarely will stolen computers be recovered. If your laptop or computer gets stolen you will also lose all the data on it. Your insurance may replace your computer but it will not cover the cost of losing your data. With a remote backup system in place you will now be able to recover your data even if it gets stolen.
-
To protect your data from hardware failures.
It's not a question of if but rather when your computer disks will fail. Most companies who have a drive failure will lose some or all of their data. And, most small businesses don’t have a backup plan that fully protects them and many go out of business after a catastrophic loss of data. With a Remote Backup System they can protect their business by recovering all of their lost business data.

To protect against accidental deletion of important files
Accidentally deleting the wrong file can be costly but if you have our remote backup software then you can quickly and easily recover files.

Backing up to CD or tape isn't a guarantee
For example, the city government of a small town was carefully backing up their computer system onto tape cartridges and each day. When their system crashed they tried to restore their lost data from their tapes but they were all blank. They had never tried to restore the data before. Nor did they ever verify the tapes. All data had to be re-entered from paper, which took several weeks and man hours resulting in lost time and money. If they had used our Remote Backup System they would not have had to re-enter everything. Our Remote Backups are automatically verified each time.

To protect your data against human error
Busy people often rush through backups without verifying them, put off backups until a more convenient time, and leave backup disks or tapes in a drawer next to the computer where they'll be lost in the same disaster. Our Remote Backup System is completely automated to ensure backups take place when they are supposed to. And, the data is automatically verified and sent to a secure offsite storage facility.
