Are your data backups running to completion?

Are your data backups running to completion?

07:00 01 December in IT

Several months ago, your IT guy scheduled and implemented various data backups for your business.  No one has asked for these backup to stop, so it’s assumed that they still running, right?  Well, it’s not that simple…  Unless that same IT guy (or anyone else with the required know-how) is doing regular checks, there’s no guarantee that those backups are working – properly, or at all.

Software updates, network changes, internet interruptions, insufficient drive space and hardware failures.  These are just some of the issues that can influence the efficacy of your backups.  We therefore recommend that, as a business owner or manager, you ensure that someone with the required knowledge runs regular checks on your backup data.  Not only to establish whether back-ups are running to completion – but also to perform restoration “dry runs” to verify the integrity and accessibility of the data, and to ensure that your back-ups will provide you with everything you need, when you need it.

At CommsPartner, we can handle all of this for you.  From back-up implementation to data restoration, you can rest assured that your data will be professionally managed at all times.  Contact us to find out more.
