Backups are a requirement for today’s companies. Digital data is rapidly growing at a rate of 80% each year, and businesses like yours are responsible for maintaining 85% of that information. Traditional backup solutions can be expensive and take weeks to implement, leaving your business vulnerable to revenue and productivity loss. Hard drive crashes, spilled drinks, accidental file deletion, and theft can occur at any time and put your company’s future in jeopardy.

Backing up your centralized data goes a long way toward protecting the essential business information, but it’s not enough to keep your business protected. Data can be restored to another server if the server fails, but what about the applications that are shared on that server?
Backup the shared data on the file server.
Replicate that data to an offsite datacenter or “cloud”.
