Local vs. Online Backup

Our last newsletter looked at the history of backup, from punch cards onward. History continues to be made as DataPreserve Pro offers a full-featured local backup software integrated with online backup and storage.

Until recently, IT professionals needed one application to ensure local copies of backup were running smoothly, and another application for online backup and storage. Managing and coordinating the two systems quickly became a nightmare, particularly when remote offices and branch offices came into play.

Now DataPreserve Pro allows you to set up an integrated local, server-based backup and online 'cloud' backup with one single software interface. Even with multiple clients, networked servers and multiple offices, a single DataPreserve Pro solution can be used to manage backups and protect your data.

There are other solutions that boast of local and online backups. Some, however, can back up only a single local machine, not multiple, networked machines. Help make history yourself by using DataPreserve Pro to protect your customers.

Baseball and Backup

There’s one position in baseball that has a lot in common with online backup – the backup catcher. As Mel Antonen writes in USA TODAY, “Backup catchers deal with little playing time, big expectations.” They are expected to stay out of the way, sit on the bench. Yet they must continually remain prepared to be called into the game.

While pitchers rarely pitch a whole game, catchers typically play the time. That means that backup catchers may play once a week. When they are needed, backup catchers are required to go from passive waiting to active play at a moments' notice. They need a combination of infinite patience and quick, effect response. Further, backup catchers are a primarily defensive position. They are relied upon to keep opposing teams from scoring. Finally, “General managers say a dependable backup isn't easy to find. And deciding what kind of backup a team needs depends on how the roster shakes down.”

So too, online backup is required to restore data infrequently. Day after day other business processes are used and referenced while online backup patiently backs up the daily changes to data and stores them securely offsite. Many of our customers forget that they have online backup until they need it. Then the online backup solution, like the backup catcher, transitions into play. With fan fair or compliant the backup solution restores critical business data back to the user to defend the team from data loss.

Business managers also know that a dependable backup isn’t easy to find. The right solution requires and understanding of the type of data to be protected, the amount of data changed daily, bandwidth and other human and technology factors that require experienced professionals to determine.

The good news is that with DataPreserve business managers have access to experienced professionals through the DataPreserve reseller channel. DataPreserve has been reliably and patiently playing backup for over five years.
