Data Backups

Providing on-site and online backup services to ensure your documents, files and databases are safe, should the worst happen. “Backups, I'm far too busy to take backups!” - The team at Livewire Solutions have heard this all too often.

Protecting the computer files of your business is often not your first priority, especially when you are heavily involved in the day-to-day running of the business. But protecting your data from the everyday threats that face your I.T. systems should be considered a higher priority.

Consider how many hours it took to input all of the data on your computer system? Think about where you would be if you suddenly lost it all...

  1. All your ordering information
  2. Your customer and supplier details
  3. Names, addresses and phone numbers
  4. The information in your stock system
  5. All of your accounting and financial data

How would you know how much you owed people, or more importantly how much they owed you? And just imagine the bill from the accountants for reconstructing your accounting information from scratch... it doesn't bear thinking about!

  1. What could cause this catastrophe?
  2. Hard disk failure
  3. Virus attack
  4. User error
  5. File corruption
  6. Hardware theft and flooding or fire

These are just a few examples... the list seems endless.

We provide on-site backup services, as well as online backup services for those looking to automate their systems:

"I keep forgetting to backup my files... can I automate it so I don't need to worry?"

Yes you can.

Livewire Solutions can provide you with a mechanism to automatically backup your files to our remote server on a regular basis should you require it. An online backup system is very simple to set up, and very effective in providing you with a simple means of keeping your work safe. Backup is done via a secure system, so you do not need to worry about unauthorised access to your business information caused by its use.

The benefits of performing online backups include:

  1. Backups can be scheduled to run at night, all you have to do is leave the PC or server on
  2. The files are stored off-site, mitigating losses in the event of an on-site disaster such as fire or flooding
