A backup and disaster recovery solution is critical to running your business

In today’s world of exponential data growth, a reliable disaster recovery and backup solution is critical to running your business. Legacy solutions (like offsite tape repositories) don’t provide the immediate access required in this high-availability era. More and more, HostedBizz customers are asking for fast access to backups and always-on data availability via a disaster recovery (DRaaS) as a service solution.

It does, however, improve recovery time performance by a staggering 58%!
