Remote Backup Frequently
Asked Questions
If you have a question you cannot find an answer for, please
contact us.
Why should I backup data offsite?
Backing up your business data and then leaving the CD next to the
server isn't going to help if there is a fire, hurricane, theft or
other disaster. There are also many other ways to lose data.
Backing up to a secure, remote location can help ensure that your
valuable business data is there should you ever need it.
There is no substitution for your business data; once it is
gone, it is gone, so be sure to protect it
accordingly.
While backing up on tape drives, DVDs, CDs, or hard drives, and
other such devices is much better than no backup at all, these
methods run an increased risk of failure over secure online backup.
These methods are also time consuming and dreaded for most
businesses. That is why so many businesses fail to properly backup
important data. With online backup there is no hardware to buy and
it is easily scalable as the amount of data grows.
This online backup service also serves as a fail-safe for those
businesses that are backing up regularly already. Many businesses
utilize remote backup services as secondary protection.
Isn't backing up and restoring difficult and time
consuming?
Not at all. We take the headache out of backing up your business
data. Once it is setup, backups occur automatically at scheduled
intervals (usually every night).
Isn't online backup expensive?
No. We provide very competitive prices with Backup Plans for
businesses of all sizes and data amounts and provide local service
(in the Southwest Florida area). Compared with all the other
expenses to protect businesses such as insurance, online backup is
very reasonably priced. We have plans that start at about $1/day to
protect your business.
Is my data secure?
Definitely! All data is encrypted before it is sent over a secure
connection to our secure servers. The data is then stored in
encrypted form on our secure servers in our secure data center. Now
you know why Secure is our middle name.
Can anyone see my data?
No. Since all data is encrypted the whole way, from transfer to
storage, not even employees of Data Secure Services will have the
ability to view your data in any readable or identifiable
form.
Can I backup multiple computers and/or
networks?
Yes, all of our Backup Plans allow for extra computers. Any
configuration is possible. For customized network options, contact us.
What if I want to back up remotely more than once per
day?
This is an option. Contact us
for more details.
Can you keep other versions of my data that are backed up
in case I accidentally overwrite a file I need?
Yes, this is an option. There a couple of ways to do this. For
customized solutions, contact us.
Do you service large businesses?
Yes. Please contact us to discuss a
customized enterprise plan. Volume discounts are available.
