Do you use USB memory sticks, tapes, USB hard drives to store periodic backups? Do you ever carry out tests of your backed up data to check that it is correctly backed up? Do you keep your backups offsite in case of fire, theft, flooding etc?

Do you worry about backups? You should.

We provide an online, offsite, automated backup service. Advantages:

• The service is hardware independent therefore no obsolescence. If your present tape/disk drive fails you would have to replace it with an identical unit if your existing tapes were to be used. If this type of drive is no longer available your tapes are of no use whatsoever. In addition if you upgrade your server you do not need to purchase a backup drive.
• It is performed 365 days per year
• No back-up media to be relied upon. Backup tapes should be renewed every six months as they can stretch and become damaged during use and transmission.
• No dependency on a member of staff remembering to change the tapes on a daily basis and remove from site for safe keeping. No concerns over holiday/sickness cover.
• Fully automated – electronic solution – reliable modem technology and communications reduce the risk of error or oversight.
• Data is stored off site fully encrypted and password protected. All data is encrypted on your PC or server before it is transmitted to the backup site so there is no way that your data can be viewed even in the unlikely event of the transmission being intercepted.
