REMOTE BACKUP
» WHAT IT IS
Tech911 is the complete solution for your business
or personal backup needs. Featuring
unmatched security, robust version
control, and online restore of data 24
hours a day!
FACT: The average business has
$60,000 worth of computer data and many of them have little or no protection at
all.
FACT:
It does not take a
dramatic natural disaster to make you lose your data. Every day viruses, worms,
hard drive crashes, software failures, and theft turn businesses upside down in
an effort to recover information and resume operations.
FACT:
The average PC data
loss can cost more than $2,000 when you consider technical support for recovery,
lost productivity, and lost data.
Tornados, hurricanes, earthquakes, power
surges and outages, employee mistakes or sabotage - there are simply too many
opportunities to lose your mission-critical data. Service from Tech911 helps to
ensure that your data will survive... even if your computer hardware doesn't.
Consider
for a moment the valuable role that computer data plays in your life and
business. Many households and businesses spend hundreds of dollars a month on
other, less critical, elective expenses - while leaving their most valuable
asset, their data, totally unprotected.
Service with Tech911 is the most
economical, secure and automatic way to insure your data. Tech911 uses the
world's most popular and secure software, which has been securing data for more
than 19 years.
Cost/Benefit of In-House
Backups vs. secure, offsite and
automatic Tech911 service
Copying data to CDs/DVDs or tapes that
are left on premises only insures that
some data will be available for restore
if the backup media is accessible after
a data loss event – and if this data is
taken offsite it is usually unencrypted,
making it available for viewing and use
by virtually anyone that might come into
contact with it. Fires usually destroy
backup media that are left onsite, and
in many cases the affected premises are
off-limits to everyone for many days
after a fire or other disaster. Proper
backups are done automatically, at
non-peak business hours, are securely
encrypted, are available for restore at
any time, and are taken offsite – every
night.
Costs for
proper in-house backup include:
-
Employee time - backing up: (daily)
˝ - 1 hour
-
Backup Media: $2 - $200 – depending
on format
-
Hardware: $200 to $8000 depending on
format
-
Employee time - verifying backups:
(weekly) 1 hour
-
Employee time – swapping media:
(daily) .25 hours+
Assuming
that the employee responsible for the
backups, removal of media, verifications
and restore processes is on a salary of
at least $30,000 per year, and using the
minimum time dedications outlined above,
the cost of properly backing up an SMBs
data is about $71.25 per week, $285 per
month, and $3420 per year – not
including hardware. If you factor in the
cost of true manual ‘rotation’ of backup
copies to a secure offsite location
using a courier service ($300 per
month+) and the aggregate costs
associated with restoring data from
tapes or the internal costs of managing
a single total loss/restore event, the
costs of in-house backup can skyrocket
to well over double the previous
estimate.
Compare
this to the Tech911 service, operating
automatically at non-peak hours, and
without imposing on your existing staff
or adding hardware or media resources of
any type.
Typical average charges for Tech911
service might be $50-$75 per month,
resulting in a minimum cost savings of
between $2520 and $2820 per year.
