Small Business - Backup Essentials

Small and medium-sized businesses need a data protection solution that is easier and more reliable than how it's done today. The fact that tape -- the de-facto method for protecting data -- simply doesn't work is becoming too obvious to ignore. Industry analysts have long noted that tape backups fail to fully restore as much as 50% of the time. This level of avoidable risk is indefensible. After all, which half of data can companies afford to lose? The customer orders, the client records, the invoices? Fact is, nearly all of a company's data is critical to ongoing operations and can't be placed in jeopardy.

A hot, new approach to data protection promises to address the challenges posed by today's tape-based backup solutions. Following are the Top 10 reasons why disk-based online backup and recovery is replacing tape at today's small and medium businesses.

Protect your business-critical data with disk-based online backup and recovery for these reasons:

"By 2008, the majority of data restores will occur from disk, not from tape."
