Some Companies tend to leave back up’s for a long time, hoping all will be OK. We recommend a back up at least every week, if not daily.

Whichever method you choose to back-up your data, the back up CD or tape needs to be taken offsite, just in case there is any damage to your premises such as a fire, flood or a break in.   It is wise to elect 3 people who are authorised to carry out a back up of your system and to ensure you have details of where they are storing the back up tape or CD.  NEVER JUST LEAVE IT IN A CAR!

 

 

CLUNK CLICK
We are partners with Clunk Click, who are the providers of external back-up solutions. This solution works with your existing broadband connection to automatically back-up your data to external servers based at data centres across Manchester.
For this to operate all it needs is a simple piece of software installed on either your PC, Laptop or Server and an internet connection.  
AND the best part is….once the software is installed, you don’t have to worry about it. Just leave the program to work in the background. We can even monitor this for you remotely!

The Features and Benefits:  

• Simple software download and installation.
• Automatic daily backup to secure offsite data centers.
• Set and Forget’ process, automate the routine and we can monitor it for you remotely, allows staff to concentrate on core tasks.

• Easily upgradeable.
• Access to backup files from any internet enabled computer, anywhere in the world.

In Comparison to Tape Drives:

• All data is held in-situ but is not protected against onsite disasters such as fire, theft, acts of God etc.
• Backup media such as tape and disks are volatile and can be corrupted.
• They are labour intensive, someone has to take responsibility for the daily backup. 
• They require maintenance and ongoing management.
• Onsite hardware devices need regular upgrading and are superseded by new technology.
• They can be expensive to run, manage, maintain and upgrade when the true costs are taken into account.
• Restoring from tape or CD can often be time consuming, difficult and unreliable.
• They rely on people - people are sometimes unreliable!  
  

Don’t put your system at risk! We can come to visit free of charge you and show you how to implement a back up procedure on site or we can show you the option for external back-up.
