Why choose to backup online?

What would happen if you arrived at work tomorrow and found that there had been a fire and you couldn’t gain access to your premises? What if there had been a break in and your file server had been stolen?

Disaster Recovery planning for your business is an important part of any companies overall Business Continuity plan. The Motion IT Online backup service allows for peace of mind knowing that whatever happens to your original site, your data is safe and can be downloaded from any internet connected pc.

• Peace of mind
  With the Motion IT Backup service you get a managed backup solution. We install, configure and then monitor your backups so you can relax knowing that your data is safe.

• Secure
  Backup servers are located in several world-class data centres across the globe. Each data centre adheres to the highest standards of security for optimal data protection.

• No mechanical parts to go wrong or bulky tapes to take offsite and store
  Traditional backups to tape can be problematic with tape drives prone to error and failure. Tapes also have to be stored securely off site and transported to and from your office regularly with the potential risk of loss that this involves.

• Multiple restore options
  Your data can be restored directly to the server it was backed up from, to any other internet connected location, or if required by ordering a DVD restore.*

• Minimal Impact
  After the initial backup has been completed, the Motion IT Backup service only backs up new or changed files and can employ bandwidth throttling so that future backups are lighting fast and have minimal impact on your internet service.

• Exchange, SQL, Active directoy and network drive backups
  By utilising the Volume Shadow Copy Service (VSS), the Motion IT Backup service is able to backup business critical applications without needing to take them offline.

  You can restore file versions for up to 30 days, meaning that if you change a file every day for 30 days, you can choose to restore any one of these versions!
