IT Disaster Recovery
What constitutes a disaster for you? Can you afford 1 hour, 1 day, or 1 week of server downtime? Which critical business functions will not be able to operate in the event of interruption? What if you experienced data loss where a single critical file is corrupted and lost forever? Building a Disaster Recovery (DR) plan does not mean you will be able to recover from a disaster – it just means you have an idea of what you expect to happen. That plan needs to be your plan, tailored to your answers to the questions above. Never forget to test the plan. 40% of enterprises with DR plans never test their business continuity plan. You can have a good disaster recovery plan, but without proof, staff is untrained, and problems in the process are not found.
We’ve Got You Covered
With our two hosted server locations on two different power and internet grids, we provide server redundancy, peace of mind and compliance. Cold or hot start, physical or virtual server, our years of experience will ensure that you’re covered. Complete documentation, constant monitoring, and immediate emergency service are all part of our disaster recovery service. This is one of our most popular services. Pricing is based not only on size but also how quickly you need access to a particular service. If you have a physical server, smaller data needs, and recovery time isn’t key, our flexibility allows us to tailor our price to your need.

Don’t limit your plan to a lengthy, dense document that might satisfy an auditor but is ineffective in a crisis. Common incidents with simple action plans are more effective. If a rogue employee deletes a large client file folder, or if ransomware finds its way onto your servers, you must be able to react quickly. Hardware, software or security will fail. Focus on improving overall resiliency and recovery instead of trying to generate a risk probability analysis. With a bit of foresight, a concise but safe plan can be put into place that is suitable for your exact needs.
You must create a disaster recovery project roadmap to close the gaps between your current DR capabilities and recovery objectives. Start with a risk assessment and build a good disaster recovery plan from there. Once you have corrected shortcomings, use this Disaster Recovery template to test your processes. If you do not have an existing process, our template will guide you through key DR plan elements, including:
