Why Is It Important To Backup?

In today’s world, it is more important than ever to ensure your data is backed up securely, on a reliable network. Think of it as your personal insurance policy against having to recreate all of your data in the event of a disaster.

One example of possibly detrimental data to your business is your accounting software. The database within your software comprises of your customers, suppliers and perhaps even your employee’s contact details, invoices and tax information.

Losing this information could mean days or even weeks of downtime for your business and as a result, your business would begin to lose shocking amounts of money. This could result in many long term ramifications. This is why it is so important to be certain your data is backed up in a secure place.

At vCloud, we are noticing more and more clients who want to have their backup process fully automated and off-site. This gives them the peace of mind that if there is an issue with their backup, we will notify them immediately and take action. This also means that if you so wish, we can have your backups incrementally updated every hour onto your network storage device, then it can be replicated onto our database for off-site replication and re-verification.
