Implementing A Small Business Backup Plan


ITBusinessEdge: Implementing A Small Business Backup Plan

Paul Mah looks at basic options for small business backup and explains how to go about implementing a solid backup plan.


Continuing with my ‘Eight IT Projects for SMBs’ series, I want to touch on the topic of data backups for small- and mid-sized businesses. I have lost track of the number of friends who have, at some point or another, approached me with failed hard disk drives (HDD) or flash drives containing corrupted files. The problem is exacerbated when it happens to businesses, as important budget spreadsheets, documentation and stock records become inaccessible.

Implementing backup is a very broad topic. So, for this post, I want to focus on some of the common misconceptions related to data backup and some recommendations to help SMBs.”
