Though most businesses perform some sort of data backup, many fail to ensure that the backup data is securely stored offsite. Performing a routine tape backup and leaving the tape media in the same server room does not give any protection against many types of data losses. One the frequent reasons for data loss is theft of computer systems from the office premises -- typically the backup tape is also stolen. Another common reason for data loss is fire -- the backup tape often burns along with the rest!
Secure Offsite Backup is the primary business for SmartPick Backup. Using our automated offsite backup solution, small and medium businesses can perform daily data backup, with safe offsite storage for data. With SmartPick's offsite backup you do not need tapes or any other hardware. By simply installing the offsite backup client program on your server you can enable automated offsite backup according to your schedule. (Read more about how it works..)
