We've finally reached the time of year that people of all ages look forward to, summer. But, with those beautiful summer days and nights comes the threat of severe weather such as tornados and hurricanes. It's the time of year when natural disasters come into play and often has individuals and businesses alike asking, "are we prepared?"
While these events can't be prevented, there are things that can be done to help you prepare. Anyone who has lived through any type of disaster will tell you that material items are all replaceable, and they are correct. As a manufacturer, you also have to consider how the loss of your data will impact your business.
Many will say they use tape backups. Good, at least you are doing something. However, where are those backups located? Are they on the premises where the disaster occurred? How far back is the data being saved? At EVS, we strive to offer solutions that will be there for you no matter the situation by providing Sage 500 Cloud Disaster Recovery.
This ERP disaster recovery solution gives you real-time mirroring of your Sage 500 ERP production environment and data. That means you don't have to search back through tapes hoping all of your data is there. The Sage Cloud Disaster Recovery solution mirrors your own system within 2 minutes at any time of the day. Another important feature is that the data is stored in a dedicated and disaster resistant offsite facility, including a diesel generated power backup with a 90 day fuel supply.
While no one knows the exact statistics, it's been said by the American Red Cross that as many as 40% of small businesses do not reopen after a major disaster. You have the business insurance to cover the physical equipment needs, but you also need the best plan to cover your data needs as your business continuity will depend on it.
