Data Recovery Digest

EVault is a subsidiary of data storage company Seagate. It provides cloud based backup and recovery through a variety of products.
Data storage is a vital part to any business. Important financial documents or customer information could be some of the things that your business needs to retain. As such, it is important that this data is secure and that procedures are in place should disaster strike. This is where EVault comes in.
EVault boasts three big reasons as to why cloud connected backup and recovery is the superior way to protect your data. Firstly, their solution is disk based. This means that it is scalable, automated and comes with the reliability of being stored physically. Their systems run on wide area networks, meaning that data can be moved quickly, efficiently and securely across the business. Secondly, all of your backups are stored onsite. This means that if one of your servers goes down then it can be restored instantly with no hassle. Finally, all of your data is backed up to the cloud. Your data is available wherever you are and at any time. This also means that if there is an onsite disaster then your data is not affected – it’ll still be floating up above in the cloud, safe and sound.
Using a company like EVault can be great because it will minimise business downtime. Say, for example, your onsite storage broke and you hadn’t got a backup of your data. Not only does this mean that there will significant downtime due to loss of work, but there will also be costs attached to actually restoring the data – both in the work load and financially. Having a solution like EVault in place means that should a disaster occur then you will be able to restore all of your data with speed. You will also have their technical prowess, meaning that they can guide you through the process if needs be.
Handing your data off to an external company can be worrying, especially if your business holds a lot of secure data. EVault’s data centres are ISO certified or SSAE 16 compliant and top tier rated. However, you should always bear in mind that nothing is one hundred percent secure. If possible, you might want to visit the data centre just to be sure how secure it actually is.
Another benefit of choosing EVault is that they have a support team that is available all year round, 24 hours a day. They have been in business since 1997, which they claim gives them the experience and knowledge to help guide you through data recovery and storage.
EVault offers a variety of products and services to suit different needs. They have a handy questionnaire that can be filled out in order to determine which of their products would be best for your business, along with twelve tips for their best practices to data storage and recovery.
EVault is currently offering 100 GB of their storage for free. This will allow you to try out their services and determine whether or not their services could prove useful in your business.
