Buying a Better Backup

We live in a 24/7 world where you can't afford to lose any data. The beauty of buying backup software that lets you protect your data on a real-time basis - throughout the day - means that you won't lose that critical presentation you've just spent hours creating. Can you afford to lose that document, slide show or spreadsheet? 

Most business backup takes place once a day, usually in the evening. But most employees are updating information throughout the day. If you lose that information, you've lost productivity. What's even worse, lost data can effect morale as well. 

The solution is backup that updates throughout the day. And forget about recovering from a tape backup. A disk-based solution will help you restore in a few minutes, rather than hours. Plus, you can restore the entire system, if you need to - not just files and folders. 

When you evaluate a solution, here are some things to consider:

• How quickly can I perform a backup?
• Will this backup solution allow me to restore from a specific point in time?
• Can I recover quickly?
• Is this solution only able to recover data? Can it also recover my entire system, if necessary?

The bottom line is to evaluate the solution that will be best for your bottom line.
