How fast will you recover?

Imagine that your company data server(s) crashed. Some of us would say we have a backup of the data. However, most don’t realize how long a backup restoration process takes and the cost it has on your business. Here are some of the time consuming steps that occur during a data recovery process:

  • Server has to be repaired physically and correct parts have to be ordered
  • Server operating system, drivers, programs from CDs and updates have to be reinstalled from original CDs
  • On a domain controller all the users have to be recreated
  • On an email server all the mailboxes have to be recreated and old emails have to be imported into the mailbox store
  • Group policies and security settings must be recreated
  • Every device/machine on the network has to be rechecked to make sure it can connect to server
  • Workstations may have to be rejoined to the domain and old user profiles need to be migrated on EACH machine
  • Backup data is incrementally restored to server
  • Sharing permissions for the data are set
  • And the list goes on…

This process takes at least 2 – 5 DAYS if all data, program CD’s, server parts and software licenses are available. We are also assuming you have an accurate backup of the data. How much money does 2 – 5 days of network down time cost to your business?

OUR PROACTIVE SOLUTION:

Prepare a backup server that has your company’s data synchronized with the new server. If the main server fails, have the backup server take over while we repair your main server.
