Services: Internet Backup / Disaster Recovery

Why Internet Backup?

With sales contracts, accounting records, marketing materials, business contacts and emails all being stored in digital format nowadays, it has become increasingly important for all businesses to back up your business data, because, in the event of hardware failure, restoring data from the backup is a much cheaper operation than rebuilding from scratch.

Your data is worth US$10,000 per MB
Your have invested a lot of TIME, MONEY, and ENERGY to develop your business data. Whether it’s sales records, proposals, receivables, presentations, formulas, client lists, this data is the heart of your business. Data loss is not acceptable. Studies have shown that:

  • 100MB of data is valued at US$1,000,000, i.e.: US$10,000 per MB.
  • Re-building just 20MB of lost data could cost more than US$17,000 and could take up three weeks to re-build.
  • A leaked record may cost you US$180 to rectify.
  • Retrieval of data from a dead hard drive can cost you a fortune, and there is NO GUARANTEE that all data can be recovered.

Data loss makes your business suffer

  • Your business data go hand-in-hand with your business operations. The loss, or just temporary inaccessibility, of these data may threaten your hard-earned business edge.
  • Companies without proactive data backup and recovery policies are likely to be OUT OF BUSINESS within 2 years after the loss of their business data.
  • Loss of business data may ruin your company's reputation or lead to expensive litigation.
  • Most importantly, data loss interrupts your business operation.
