According to the National Archives and Records, 93% of companies that lose access to their data for 10 days or more due to a disaster filed for bankruptcy within one year of the disaster.
This truly shocking headline leads to the inevitable question - are you confident in your business continuity and data recovery processes?
With the advent of Cloud solutions for businesses, not being confident in your business continuity and data recovery processes is simply a risk that a proactive business owner should not be taking in today’s turbulent world.
Losing to access to data for even one day, let alone a week or more is a scenario you should not put your business in. There are simply too many solutions available with the Cloud.
Things to consider when reviewing your business continuity and disaster recovery strategies:
Geo-Redundacny – Having your back up system on-site or simply in one place is not enough. What is your off-site position?
Tactics to ensure 100% productivity? Are you using tactics such as Hosted VoIP so that inbound/outbound calls will continue? Are you using Hosted Desktop so that employees can work from home and still access all data during a data disaster?
Cloud Servers enable data to be safe regardless of power surges and Cloud back up data ensures the data is safe from data corruption or power issues.
There are enough challenges that business owners face everyday, it is time to use Cloud technologies to limit some of these challenges that are proven to destroy a business.
