IT Disaster Recovery Gary

Back Online Fast When Disaster Strikes

When your systems go down, every minute costs money. You need your data back and your operations running before customers notice, before deadlines pass, and before revenue walks out the door.

That’s what proper disaster recovery does. It gets you back to business while your competitors are still figuring out what happened. Your team stays productive, your customers stay served, and your reputation stays intact.

You’re not just buying backup services. You’re buying the confidence that comes from knowing your business can weather any storm, whether it’s a server crash, a cyberattack, or a power outage that takes out half of Gary.

Business Continuity Planning Process

Simple Process, Reliable Protection

First, we assess your current systems and identify what needs protection. Every business is different, so we map out your critical data, applications, and processes to understand what you absolutely cannot afford to lose.

Next, we design your backup and recovery plan. This includes automated daily backups, secure cloud storage, and clear procedures for getting you back online fast. We set up monitoring systems that watch for problems 24/7, so we often catch issues before they become disasters.

Then we test everything regularly. A backup system that doesn’t work when you need it is worthless, so we run recovery tests to make sure your data comes back clean and your systems start up properly. You’ll know exactly how long recovery takes and what to expect during the process.

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

Recovery time depends on how much data you need restored and what type of failure occurred. For most small to medium businesses in Gary, we can have critical systems back online within 2-4 hours. Complete data restoration typically takes 4-12 hours, depending on your internet connection and the amount of data involved. We prioritize your most important files and applications first, so you can start working again while the rest of your data finishes downloading. During your initial assessment, we’ll give you specific time estimates based on your actual systems and data volume.
If ransomware encrypts your files, we immediately isolate the infected systems to prevent further spread. Then we restore your data from clean backup copies that the ransomware couldn’t touch. This is why we maintain multiple backup versions and store copies in secure, offline locations. Most Gary businesses with proper disaster recovery can be back online within hours instead of days or weeks. We also help you strengthen security to prevent future attacks. The key is having recent, tested backups ready to go – which is exactly what our monitoring and backup systems provide.
We test your backups regularly by actually restoring files and checking that they open correctly. Every month, we run verification tests on random samples of your backed-up data. Every quarter, we perform a more comprehensive test where we simulate a real disaster and walk through the complete recovery process. You receive reports showing exactly what was tested and the results. Many businesses discover their backups are corrupted or incomplete only when they need them most. Our testing catches these problems early, so you can be confident your data is truly protected.
Most Gary area small businesses invest between $200-800 per month for comprehensive disaster recovery, depending on how much data they need protected and how fast they need recovery. This includes automated backups, cloud storage, monitoring, testing, and priority recovery services. Compare that to the cost of losing a day or week of business operations. We provide upfront pricing with no surprise charges during emergencies – you know exactly what recovery will cost before you need it. We can also design scaled solutions that fit tighter budgets while still protecting your most critical data.
Yes, as long as you have proper backups in place before the crash occurs. If your server dies completely, we restore your data and applications to replacement hardware or cloud-based systems. This is why we recommend comprehensive backup strategies that capture not just files, but entire system configurations. For businesses without existing backups, we can sometimes recover data directly from damaged hard drives, though this is more expensive and time-consuming than restoring from backups. The best approach is having automated backup systems running before problems occur.
We serve businesses throughout Northwest Indiana, including Hammond, East Chicago, Merrillville, and surrounding communities. Our disaster recovery services work anywhere you have internet access, since we use secure cloud-based backup systems. However, if you need on-site support during an emergency, we prioritize businesses within our local service area for fastest response times. Remote monitoring and support work the same regardless of location, but being nearby means we can be at your office quickly when hands-on help is needed during critical recovery situations.
