Data Backup
A cloud backup is a systematic process of storing a copy of your data files and folders offsite (through the Internet) so it can be retrieved at a later time.
Carbonite
Periodically, all the computer files are backed up to Carbonite’s server through an annual subscription-based service.
The Carbonite program needs to be downloaded and installed on each device, after which the backup process is automated.
This solution is ideal for businesses that are small to medium in size and have a reliable and fast Internet connection.
Datto
Datto offers a unique hybrid cloud backup solution where individual or multiple computers can be backed up to a single device at the business location. This device synchronizes with a cloud server at regular intervals.
This solution is best suited for medium to large sized businesses that have large data files, multiple computers that require backup, and servers and workstations that require quick recovery during issues. Although a fast and reliable Internet connection is recommended, it is not essential.
The pricing for this annual subscription-based service depends on the amount of backup space needed.
