Remote Backup & Online Backup Services

Remote data backup and online backup services are fast becoming the number one and most favoured method of remote data storage and data redundancy.

Online data storage has come of age principally due to the ever increasing availability of high speed broadband connections which gives business and home users alike access to corporate level secure data centre storage facilities that only a few years ago would have been beyond the budget of any home user or SME.

Secure online file storage now gives all computer users a viable and realistic alternative to the traditional method of using network attached devices, servers or traditional tape back up solutions which by comparison are slow and cumbersome, and often the data still resides in the business and is at still at risk.

An ever increasing number of companies are now placing a much higher focus on their disaster recovery plans as recent events have highlighted how fragile a company is if it loses its core data. A recent DTI survey even revealed that 71% of business fail within 18 months of suffering from a severe data loss.

Remote data backup services offer some very real advantages to all levels of users least of which is the fact that data is stored offsite and in the event of a system failure your files can be restored almost immediately to any location resulting in less business down time and less risk of significant revenue loss.

In addition the availability of automatic server backup scheduling eases the burden on the business and often overstretched internal IT staff.

It’s little wonder therefore that remote online backup services form a principle part of any sound disaster recovery protocol or business continuity strategy in a modern business environment.
