Remote Data Backup
Never Underestimate the Value of Your Most Valuable Asset –
Your Data!
If you do not believe in the seriousness and importance of performing
remote data backups on a regular basis, simply ask anyone
who has ever had a major data loss happen to them. Critical data
losses can occur at any time and any location:
- 25% of all PC users suffer from data loss each year.
- 15% of all laptops are stolen or suffer hard drive failures.
- 70% of small firms that experience a major data loss go out
of business within a year.
- 31% of PC users have lost all of their files due to events
beyond their control.
- 34% of companies fail to test their tape backups, and of those
that do, 77% have found tape back-up failures.
According to the National Computer Security Association (NCSA),
without adequate data backups there is an enormous cost associate
with recreating even a small amount of data:
- 19 days and $17,000 to recreate 20 MB of lost sales or marketing
data
- 21 days and $19,000 to recreate 20 MB of lost accounting data
- 42 days and $98,000 to recreate 20 MB of lost engineering data
What is the data on your system worth and could you afford to
lose any or all of it?
The costs of offsite data backup services are minimal when compared
to the total costs of purchasing, installing, and maintaining a
local backup drive. Just the cost of the average tape drive alone
can cost more than a few years of a typical 10 GB remote data backup's
service. Backup tapes cost $50 to $100 each. Since you need a minimum
of 20 tapes for a proper offsite rotation, just the media costs
alone are more than one to two years of the subscription service.
Most importantly, since the average data loss incident costs $2,557,
preventing just a single data loss occurrence is worth more than
a decade of offsite backup service. It is the most important insurance
policy money can buy.
SystemWatch’s data backup solution
is a backup service that includes valuable data access and recovery
features that separates TeamLogic IT from other backup providers.
From 5GB to 1TB, we can protect your data securely off-site.
Catastrophic data loss is preventable and sadly enough most people
do not know the value of their data until they lose it and at that
point it is too late. Your organization can have its mission critical
data automatically backed up offsite every night. Considering this
service costs less than the average cup of coffee, this is very
inexpensive insurance to protect your organization’s most
valuable asset.
