Your data survives failure, deletion and ransomware
Backup on Synology RackStation appliances, with automatic protection from servers and workstations – and a recovery process that has been rehearsed, not just storage.
-
Automatic backup with no “remembering”
-
A copy away from the main site
-
A recovery process that has been rehearsed
Who it is for
For companies that cannot afford to lose data
Backup is not a shelf with a disk – it is a process that has to be rehearsed before you need it.
Business data on the server
Documents, databases and shared folders with automatic scheduled copies – no human factor.
Ransomware protection
Backups kept separate from production, with dated versions. Immutable copies are included according to the supported model and agreed plan.
A second site as a reserve
Another copy away from the main building – fire, flood or theft does not wipe everything at once.
Fast recovery
Restore one file from yesterday, or a whole server onto new hardware – a process we have rehearsed with you.
