Backup that's actually monitored, tested and ready to restore from, not just a job that runs quietly in the background until the day it's needed and hasn't been working.
Most businesses find out their backup didn't work at the worst possible moment - during a ransomware attack, a hardware failure, or after someone deletes the wrong folder. We set up backup properly so that doesn't happen to you.
We follow our 3-2-1 backup rule, three copies of your data, on two different types of media, with one copy kept offsite, across your servers, workstations, Microsoft 365 mailboxes and SharePoint/OneDrive data. Backups are monitored daily by our team, and we run regular test restores so we know they'll work before you ever need them - part of the wider protection covered by our cyber security services.
No add-ons to chase down later - this is what's included as standard.
Every server and workstation you rely on, backed up on a schedule that suits how your business actually works.
Mailboxes, SharePoint sites and OneDrive backed up separately to Microsoft's own retention, covered in the FAQ below.
Copies held offsite and in the cloud as standard, encrypted so a stolen or lost device is never a data breach.
Our team checks every job daily and acts on failures straight away - not weeks later when you go looking for a file.
We restore sample data on a regular schedule, so we know a backup works before you're ever relying on it.
Retention tailored to your compliance requirements, with a disaster recovery plan alongside your backup strategy.
Add exactly the backup you need, priced per user or per device - no bundles to buy into.
Mailboxes, SharePoint and OneDrive backed up separately to Microsoft's own retention.
Local and cloud copies of each workstation, monitored daily and test-restored.
Full hybrid onsite and offsite server backup, ready for fast restore after a failure.
The two get used interchangeably, but they answer different questions - and a solid strategy needs both.
Backup is about the data itself, keeping copies so a deleted file, corrupted database or ransomware attack doesn't mean the data is gone for good.
Disaster recovery is about getting the business running again - how quickly your systems, servers and applications are back online after a server failure, flood, fire or major outage, not just the files inside them. We plan for both together, so a bad day never turns into a bad month.
Microsoft protects the platform's uptime, not your data from accidental deletion, malicious deletion or ransomware. A separate Microsoft 365 backup covers what Microsoft's own retention policies don't.
It depends on what's failed and how much data is involved, but we agree recovery time targets with you upfront as part of your backup and disaster recovery plan.
Yes. We regularly review and take over existing backup setups, tightening up monitoring and retention where it's needed.
Backup protects your data, the files and databases themselves. Disaster recovery is about getting your systems and applications running again after a bigger failure. A proper strategy plans for both, not just one.
Yes. Mailboxes, SharePoint sites and OneDrive are all backed up as part of your Microsoft 365 protection, so a deleted site or file is recoverable in the same way as a deleted email.
