Data Recovery Solutions Process

Simple Setup, Automatic Protection, Fast Recovery

First, we evaluate your current systems and identify critical data that needs protection. We determine how quickly you need to be back online and what level of data loss you can tolerate. This assessment shapes your entire disaster recovery strategy.

Next, we implement automated backup systems that work around the clock. Your data gets copied to multiple secure locations – typically a combination of local and cloud storage. These backups happen automatically, so you don’t have to remember to do anything.

Regular testing ensures everything works when you need it. We run recovery drills to verify your data can actually be restored quickly. We document exact procedures and train your staff on what to do during an emergency.

When disaster strikes, you call one number. Our team immediately begins recovery procedures, getting your most critical systems online first. You know exactly what’s happening and when you’ll be fully operational again.

How long does it take to recover data after a system failure?

Recovery time depends on how much data needs to be restored and which systems failed. For single file recovery or small database restoration, you’re usually back online within an hour. Complete server rebuilds typically take 4-8 hours for most small businesses. The key is having the right backup strategy in place before problems occur. We design recovery plans based on your specific business needs – if you can’t afford to be down for more than two hours, your backup system gets configured to meet that requirement.
Local backup devices keep working even when internet connections fail. Your most critical data stays accessible on-site while cloud backups provide additional protection once connectivity returns. Many businesses also benefit from backup internet connections through cellular networks or satellite services. We help you evaluate whether backup connectivity makes sense for your operation. The goal is ensuring you can keep working regardless of what infrastructure fails around you.
Most small businesses spend between $200-800 per month on comprehensive disaster recovery, depending on how much data needs protection and how quickly they need to recover. This investment typically pays for itself the first time it prevents a major outage. Consider that just four hours of downtime often costs more than a year of disaster recovery services. We provide transparent pricing based on your actual needs, not generic packages that include services you don’t require.
Regular testing is the only way to verify backup reliability. We perform monthly recovery tests on random data samples to ensure everything can be restored properly. We also run quarterly full-system recovery drills that simulate real disaster scenarios. You receive detailed reports showing exactly what was tested and verified. Many businesses discover their backup systems don’t work only when disaster strikes – proper testing prevents that nightmare scenario from happening to you.
Cloud-based disaster recovery solutions provide secure remote access to your business data from any location with internet connectivity. Your team can continue working from home, temporary offices, or other locations while primary systems are being restored. We set up secure VPN connections and cloud applications that maintain productivity during extended outages. This capability proved invaluable for many businesses during recent natural disasters and the COVID-19 pandemic.
Comprehensive disaster recovery protects against both common and catastrophic events. Hardware failures, software corruption, and human errors happen regularly and account for most data loss incidents. Cyberattacks including ransomware are increasingly common and can encrypt all your business data. Natural disasters like floods, fires, and severe storms can destroy entire facilities. Power outages and internet service disruptions also threaten business operations. We design recovery plans that address all these scenarios, ensuring your business survives whatever problems occur.
