What’s one of the worst case scenarios that you and your small business could face? What would you do if someone broke into your office and stole or destroyed all of your computers – the computers that had valuable information and data? Financials, important contacts, contractual agreements, business plans and models etc., all gone. Do you have a way to gain any of it back? What if there’s a horrible natural disaster and everything is ruined? What if there’s a fire in your house or your office? Machines, computers and technology are not invincible.
In a continuing effort to help our customers improve and maintain their business, 123Print has become a partner with Carbonite, an automatic online file backup system. With Carbonite’s software, all of your important files (email, client records, invoices etc) are backed up automatically and continue to be backed up in the background. All of your files are encrypted at all times and restoring lost files is easy and more importantly fast. So if any of the worst case scenarios mentioned earlier were to unfortunately happen, Carbonite will help you get everything set back up so you don’t miss a beat.
Back in April of this year, Carbonite surveyed small businesses with between two and 20 employees to study their disaster recovery and data backup methods. The survey showed that almost half of small businesses have already lost irreplaceable data. Are you one of these small businesses? Are you ignoring a potential risk that could inevitably make you one of these small businesses?
Remember how back in August, we encouraged you to be prepared in the event of a natural disaster? Take a cue from the following infographic, and have something in place to protect your virtual life and data.
