Data Loss - the facts!

Many people are unaware of how data is lost or how damaging data loss can be to a business. As our graphs demonstrate:

  • 82% of data is lost through simple hardware failure, human error or software corruption - every day occurences.
  • The resulting effects of this data loss is that businesses lose money and reputation with nearly 1 in 5 businesses having to cease trading due to having lost data.

Data - the lifeblood of business

At SafetyNet Backup Solutions we believe that data, the information that businesses use, is the lifeblood of the business. Without it they cannot function.

Data is by far the most valuable asset of any business - not its array of products or services, buildings, equipment or hardware.

Avoid Data Loss

SafetyNet Backup Solutions provides business owners with a reliable, verifiable and secure backup process to ensure that the future success of their business is not destroyed by a major loss of data. This is achieved by:

  • Removing the 'human error' element from the backup process.
  • Providing version control whereby there are many copies of the one file and you can restore to the point-in-time that you require.
  • Having an automated scheduler that will always back up the data at a specified time without any manual intervention.
  • Producing an automatic email informing the client of the completion and success of each backup job.
  • Automatically including any new files that are added to directories already part of the backup schedule.
  • Storing the backups in a secure offsite facility.
