Virtual Disaster Recovery Testing

Time and time again I have done a new customer audit and discovered that their Backup Tape/Drive that they have been diligently rotating for months contains either nothing at all or backup files so old as to be next to useless.

Vertech has been countering this with our flat-rate Max Backup cloud DR service and we are now happy to announce that we can provide a regular Virtual Disaster Recovery Testing Service.

Currently if Vertech is visiting your site for a regular maintenance visit the Second thing we do (The First is making sure the server isn't about to burst into flames) is a test restore of files and folders to confirm the backup data chain is intact. Now Vertech upgrade this testing to provide a regular full restore of your Servers into Microsoft Azure hosting platform to confirm that the Servers will actually Boot up!

Previously doing a full DR restore of servers was an time-consuming and expensive manual service. We are now able to automate much of the donkey work to be able to offer this peace of mind at a much better rate. Further more this test restore can be used as the basis for a Fast full site recovery option should the office go up in a puff of smoke!

If your business needs a reality check on your Backup and DR then give me a call on +64 9 9720364 or email me daniel@vertech.co.nz and I'll be happy to come out and provide a free consultation.
