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?
