Data. Most people think it is a term relegated to the kingdom of geeks.However, in today's world your data is your life. Chances are every piece of data you might ever rely upon to make an important decision has been reduced to a digital format and resides somewhere on your computer's hard drive. Improved functionality and productivity are the benefits. However, on the flipside one wrong click, one nasty virus, one untimely power surge or unhappy employee and that data is gone forever! |

Data loss can cost your company uncountable
hours in lost productivity and revenue. In addition
to the direct loss of a potentially unlimited amount
of data (and the payroll hours that it took to generate
that data) your company’s business and potential to
generate revenue can also be crippled by even the most
minimal of data-destroying meltdowns.
Imagine the loss of productivity that would occur if
your accounting department suffered the loss of all
of their files. In fact, 20 megabytes of accounting
data takes 21 days and costs $19,000 to reproduce. Among
companies who lose data in a disaster, 50% never re-open
and 90% are out of business within two years!
Payroll files, tax data, and budgetary datasheets are
just a handful of the hundreds of types of data that
are generated by a modern day accounting department.
Most companies employ entire departments of professionals
just to take care of this fundamental chore that is
so integral to the success of any company no matter
what the size or earnings bracket. Now imagine one months
work for this department vanishing in the blink of an
eye. Now imagine six months work pulling the same vanishing
act. It’s enough to make even the most thick-skinned
CFO cringe at the thought of it.
Now imagine there is a way to minimize or even eradicate
this potentially enterprise threatening series of unfortunate
events. Actually, you don’t have to imagine it, because
it already exists right now. It’s called an online backup
solution and it’s the key to the success of any company
that relies even moderately on information technology.
If your company generates even the most modest amount
of computer data on a regular basis your IT department
should certainly consider employing the use of an online
backup partner. Having access to your data at all times
can mean the difference between an absolute failure
and a resounding success in the business world. Your
company is only as secure as the data it generates,
so if your company depends on access to its information
under any circumstances, an online backup solution will
play a key role in ensuring that access.
There is no substitute for the protection secure backup
storage can provide every business, from tiny startups
to the multinational enterprise, secure online backups
are making sure today’s business is prepared for anything
that happens tomorrow and beyond.
Your DATA is your LIFE! Protect it!
