You can be ready for any worst-case scenario by securing your data online. Services like SOS Online Backup have plans specifically for business users. You can back up multiple computers with a single account and pricing is determined by the amount of storage you need. Backups can be hourly, daily, weekly or whenever changes are made.
Most businesses will have at least 20 or 30 GB of data that need to be backed up and SOS lets businesses do an initial physical upload that can save time. You can send encrypted data in on a DVD or have SOS send you a disk overnight that you can use to copy your backup. Moving forward, daily backups won’t take as much time since SOS will only need to save any changes made.
SOS also stores unlimited versions of your data, so you’ll be covered in case you accidentally delete a file or it becomes corrupted. It only deletes files from its system when you’ve chosen to do so. It won’t remove anything you only delete from your computer.
You can use SOS to back up your entire computer. It comes with a free local backup system that you can use to save information to a USB drive, iPod or local network location.
For small-business owners, SOS offers webinars from time to time on how to protect your business from data loss. Also, each account comes with a 14 day free trial during which you won’t be billed. After that, you have 30 days to request a full refund if you are left unsatisfied.
