Servers & backup
The systems that hold your business data, set up to run smoothly, and a proven way to get everything back if the worst happens.
What we do
We recommend the right home for your data based on your software, your budget and how your team works.
Windows and Linux servers specified, built and installed, from a single office server to a full rack.
Run several servers on one physical machine with Hyper-V, Proxmox or VMware, cutting hardware and power costs.
Shared storage with the right permissions, snapshots to undo mistakes and enough space to grow.
Encrypted copies of your data kept away from the office, following the 3-2-1 rule, so a fire, theft or ransomware attack does not take everything.
A written plan for getting your business working again, with recovery times agreed in advance rather than guessed on the day.
Prefer not to own hardware? Run your servers on our hosted platform or in Azure, managed by the same team.
Our approach
Plenty of businesses discover their backup was not working on the day they need it. We monitor every backup job, check for failures daily and run test restores, so you know your data really can come back.
Servers are kept patched and monitored, and before any risky update we take a snapshot so we can roll back safely if anything misbehaves.
Your server is more than five years old
You are not sure when the last backup ran
Backups sit on a drive in the same office
Shared drives are full or painfully slow
Nobody has ever tried restoring a file
Questions
It depends on your software and how you work. We will look at both options, including costs over several years, and recommend what makes most sense.
Encrypted in secure data centres away from your premises. We agree the location and how long backups are kept with you.
Yes. We can protect email, OneDrive and SharePoint alongside your servers and computers.
Individual files are usually back within minutes. For larger recoveries we agree target times with you in your disaster recovery plan.
Our free IT health check includes a review of your servers, storage and backups.
