Backup, Continuity & Disaster Recovery

Today’s small to mid-sized businesses, or SMBs, are creating more data than ever. Their growth calls for robust solutions to back up their business-critical data. Due to limited financial and IT resources, SMBs must know what to look for in a backup solution.

Successful backup is the foundation for disaster recovery and business continuity. Without it, recovery and continuity cannot exist. Technologies that created decades ago to store data are not enough. Antiquated methods, like tape backup, are not going to ensure data retention and recovery during business-critical time windows.

When choosing a backup solution, SMBs should look for six essential pieces of criteria: comprehensiveness, ease of use, recoverability, performance and reliability, affordability, and scalability. Specific features to look for include proof of backup, image-based backup, virtualization, and secure storage.

Benefits include: Cost-efficiency, increased employee productivity, greater customer retention, and better understanding of scalability.

IT Support & Service

Many business owners think of IT support as a service they pick up the phone and call for whenever something breaks or hardware or software needs replacing. This is a traditional reactive model known as “Break-Fix”. We understand that sometimes you need help right away, which is why we will provide as-needed IT support and technology services to businesses both on-site and remotely, on a short-term basis.

Break/fix services may be the right model for specific businesses and particular situations. It’s all too easy for break/fix models to create recurring conditions where we are always dealing with angry business owners in crisis mode, ruining nights and weekends that add high cost to the services rendered. The urgency surrounding a preventable crisis causes a disruption to staffing, which could potentially impact our partners.

By encouraging businesses to adopt a managed IT approach, we aligned with your business. We are motivated to prevent problems in the first place, which is the same goal. Instead of unexpected invoices, you get a flat rate, managed IT services with predictable costs, and cost savings on the services your business depends on (hardware, software, phone, and internet). Break/fix will cost your company more over the long term and managed IT is more affordable than in-house IT.

Benefits include: Better alignment, predictable costs, better stability, infrastructure upgrade, more affordable than in-house IT.
