If you are a small business owner there are two words that can make you go weak at the knees and NOT in a good way – Server Failure.
Servers are fundamental to the running of most businesses these days and if they die it can mean your business grinds to a halt. Buying new Servers, getting them installed and restoring them from the back-up can take anything up to three weeks. It’s the stuff of nightmares.
“But I’ve got Anti-Virus and my Server has worked OK so far…what could POSSIBLY go wrong?” I hear you say!
OK, here are some of the situations where your IT can suffer major down-time:
No 1 – Fire, Theft, Flood, Earthquake
Where your IT infrastructure is severely damaged or rendered unusable by a natural disaster or if you suffer a theft.
No 2 – New Virus Attack
If a virus attacks your Server and causes software corruption or component failure. Robust Anti-Virus protects against most viruses – however, new viruses are being created all the time. If a patch or ‘antidote’ for a new virus does not apply in time, your IT can be compromised.
No 3 – Systems Failure
Server component failure – Due to; faulty part, overheating, age, wear & tear, accidental spillage/breakage
No 4 – Deliberate act of sabotage
Where an employee or somebody outside the business deliberately compromises your IT equipment or data.
I’ll let you in to a secret… 999RESTORE can have you back up and running within a few hours and none will be the wiser.
999RESTORE is Supreme Systems’ Disaster Recovery Package
Here is how it works:
Step 1 – An Account Manager and an engineer works with you to create a Disaster Recovery Plan that meets your unique requirements and specifications.
Step 2 – Engineers visit your site and, using specialist DR equipment, create an exact replica of your Server software.
Step 3 – The replica is stored on a Supreme Systems Server in our secure Server Room where it is maintained, managed and updated and most importantly it’s GOOD TO GO when you most need it.
Step 4 – In the event of a virus attack, systems failure or deliberate act of sabotage Supreme Systems will deliver the replica Server and you can be back up and running within 4 hours. In the event of a natural disaster where your equipment is totally destroyed, your replica server is available for you to remotely access from a spare laptop or home PC.
Engineers will then begin the process of recovering your old Server using your back-up. You are free to use the replica server for as long as it takes to purchase a new Server or rebuild your original Server.
