Your Data Backup and Disaster Recovery Plan

Ask yourself "How long can I afford to be without my critical systems and data?" 70% of companies that suffer a serious data loss are out of business within two years.

Implementing a business continuity solution is not as complex as you may think, the first step is a plan.

  1. Detailed audit ensuring that all critical data is being backed up.
  2. Daily backups and a full backup at least once a week.
  3. Quarterly backups and restore tests.
  4. One copy of your backup stored away from your system, offsite for security.

Are you using tape backups?

Tape based backup solutions fail regularly. It is a cheap, 50 year old technology that is highly unreliable at keeping data safe. 

Human Error

Without automation, scheduling and reporting, backups need to be manually looked after and carefully watched by employees. This takes up valuable time and makes the backup highly vulnerable to human error. Often, problems with the tapes or backup software prevent data from being backed up properly without anyone even knowing there is a problem.

We have a solution that will give you the confidence of knowing your data is secure and immediately recoverable in the aftermath of a data loss disaster. Datto Protection features instant onsite and offsite virtualisation and can be set-up and running within five minutes. It allows you to fully restore your servers within seconds.

Call 1890 89 89 89 or email info@netcommunications.ie for help with your plan.
