Remote Backup

What would happen if your house or office went up in flames right now? Or what if there was a flood? Internal sabotage by disgruntled employees? If you don't have your data backed up off-site, you would be in deep trouble. Insurance can replace equipment and even property. However, years of data can be wiped out in an instant, with no chance of recovery or replacement. Correctly backing up is not a luxury, it's a must for any individual or business that relies on important data! But what is the "correct" way of backing up?
Don't be ashamed if you find out your company is lagging in the backup department. In our experience, most businesses and individuals do not have a sufficient backup strategy. At Unbreakable Solutions, we are surprised each year when we find out that a new client was never correctly informed of how to backup by previous computer consultants. To summarize, the correct backup procedure requires:
- Backing up of all critical data from all servers AND workstations daily
- Keeping an off-site location for backups and rotating data daily
- Checking to make sure that the media is 100% operational and that the backup job is completing successfully daily
Few companies are completing all three steps of the backup procedure. Sometimes, a company will do step number 1 and they will backup to a tape. However, usually they will forget to backup everything important on their computers. A company that is also doing step 2 is in better shape, if they keep it up. Many times we have to remind clients to keep rotating their backup media off-site on a daily basis. It's not their fault, it becomes a chore and another thing to remember with their busy schedule. Now, a company that does everything including step number 3 is impressive, and, unfortunately, in the extreme minority. Verification that the backup job is completing successfully is important. You don't want to find out that your software or hardware were not backing up properly and all your tapes are blank after your server crashes! Backup media is also known to be unreliable and expensive. But is there a better way to correctly backup with all three steps without consuming a lot of time each day?
Enter the Unbreakable Solutions Remote Backup plan. Any customer with a high speed Internet connection (cable, DSL, etc) can painlessly backup remotely every day without worrying about a thing.
