BUSINESS CONTINUITY & DISASTER RECOVERY

What would happen if disaster struck tomorrow?

We don’t like to think about it, but our businesses are vulnerable to threats that are out of our control.

What keeps you up at night?

Theft, viruses, fire, water damage, hardware failure?

These events happen more than we’d like to think. And while we can’t always prevent disasters, we can make sure your business is equipped to recover quickly.

Business continuity is all about bouncing back from catastrophic events with minimal downtime.

It’s about protecting critical assets like email, Customer Relationship Management (CRM), inventory control and more.

DATA-BASED BACK-UP IS NOT ENOUGH

Data-based back-up means that you make copies of data to make sure you can recover important information in case of emergency. So if you’re using a USB disk or saving information to File Sync and Share (FSS) platforms—think Google Drive, Dropbox and OneDrive—that’s data-based back-up.

This method preserves your data in the event of a disaster, but it doesn’t protect your environment. That means that when disaster strikes, you can’t simply plug in somewhere else and get back to work immediately. Data-based back-up doesn’t let you continue to work in the event of a disaster, software or hardware failure.

To make matters worse, recovery with data-based back-up can take weeks, resulting in significant revenue loss.

Consider the time it takes to recover from disaster if you’re using data-based back-up:

Steps	Time needed
Procure a new server	5-10 business days
Reinstall software	1-2 business days
Restore data from back-up & test	1-2 business days
Reintegrate all PCs, test printers and other hardware	1-2 business days

That adds up to 8-16 days of downtime.

No business can afford that.

That’s why image-based back-up is a game changer.

IMAGE-BASED BACK-UP: THE BETTER SOLUTION

Image-based back-up captures a snapshot of your device in its current state, including the operating system, applications, settings and data. Unlike data-based back-up that focuses on individual files and folders, image-based back-up captures the entire system and data structure.

The benefits of image-based back-up include:

Faster recovery
We can get you up and running within an hour of a disaster.
Reduce costly downtime
The average infrastructure failure can cost businesses $100,000 per hour, according to IBM.
Complete system recovery
Your entire system will be restored—everything from your operating system to your applications and data.

Easier to manage
Your entire system is backed up on one comprehensive image file, which can run on any other device, instead of many individual files and folders.
More reliable
Since your entire system will be backed up in one file, you reduce the risk of data loss or inconsistencies between multiple data-based files.
Prepared for anything
Your business will have a robust method of swiftly recovering critical systems and data in case of emergency.

Whether it’s theft, fire, flood, virus or hardware failure, your entire system will be accessible, so your business experiences minimal disruption.
