Backup & Recovery

Business backup and recovery you can rely on.

Backups are only worth having if they work on the day you need them. Ours are checked daily and tested, not just taken.

At a glance

  • Backups verified every day
  • On-site, cloud and off-site copies
  • Single workstations to multi-server setups
  • A recovery plan written before you need it
What’s included

Your data, protected in more than one place.

Daily verification

Backup jobs are checked every day, and any failure is picked up and fixed.

Multiple copies

On-site, cloud and off-site copies, so one incident can’t take out everything.

Server backup

Protection for physical and virtual servers, from one machine to several.

Workstation backup

Important files on individual machines are covered too.

Restore testing

Backups are tested, so you know the data will actually come back.

Disaster recovery planning

A documented plan for what happens, in what order, when the worst occurs.

Why it matters

A backup you have never tested is only a hope.

Many businesses only discover a backup has been failing when they try to restore it. By then, it is too late to fix.

Ransomware, hardware failure and simple human error all end the same way: you need your data back, quickly. Verified backups and a written plan turn a potential disaster into an inconvenience.

Confidence
You know your backups work, because someone checks them every day.
Resilience
Separate copies mean a single incident can’t remove every option.
A faster recovery
Everyone knows the plan before the pressure is on.

FAQ

Your Backup & Recovery questions, answered.

Backups are verified daily. If a job fails, it is picked up and put right, rather than sitting unnoticed.

We recommend it. Microsoft keeps the service running, but recycle bins and retention settings are not the same as an independent copy of your data that you control.

They are one of your most important defences. Keeping separate copies means you have a clean version to recover from, alongside the prevention covered by our monitoring and security service.

It is a documented plan for getting your business running again after a serious incident: what gets restored first, who does what, and how you keep working in the meantime.
