Offsite Backup | PC, Mac and laptops

"Up to 60% of business data is stored locally on individual workstations"

MD5's Offsite Backup for PC's, Macs and laptops ensures that all data stored locally on individual workstations is automatically backed up.  This solution is ideal for businesses that have remote or mobile workers who tend to have large amounts of data stored locally on their machines and not on central servers.

Our offsite backup solution is installed on all workstations and will ensure that regular backups are taken of the data held on these workstations.  This will protect your data and ensure that your PC's, Mac's and laptops are protected from hardware failures, virus attacks and other threats that may cause data loss.    

MD5's Offsite Backup service will:

• Automatically back up all data stored on your PC's, Mac's & laptops
  
• Encrypt your data
  
• Send it securely over the internet at the end of each day
  
• Securely store it in one of the UK's largest data centres
  
• Provide high speed restores should you ever suffer a data loss in the future
  
• Maintain multiple version copies of your files

For a low monthly cost your business and data can be securely protected.  Enquire below to get a free quote:

Advantages over other backup methods

MD5's Offsite Backup solution offers many advantages over conventional back up methods.  The most common backup method for many businesses is to use backup tapes.  However tape backups suffer from the following drawbacks:

• Restores suffer from high failure rates
  
• Manual back up process which can be forgotten
  
• Capital investment required in hardware
  
• Additional ongoing maintenance costs
  
• Data not encrypted
  
• Tapes can be lost or damaged

If you currently use tapes to take backup's of your data and would like to switch to online backup, Cleardata also offers a service to manage your old backup tapes.  Follow the link for further information on our offsite tape storage services.
