Started by Robert DuPuy, Customer Service Manager at Business Protection Systems International Hi Robert – great questions. I can best address the second one. No matter the business, it's always a good idea to have a data recovery system in place. The required speed of a BC/DR solution restoration has historically been dependent upon the business impact of a given system failure. Systems that generate revenue and enable critical office processes have historically been the high priority systems and therefore got the more expensive solutions. In the last several years, the importance of BC/DR solutions for email, office documents, collaboration and more have grown in importance. Fortunately, the cost of BC/DR solutions and their value have been changing dramatically with cost decreasing rapidly and value increasing exponentially. With this in mind, businesses should put a good amount of time and consideration into their backup plans.
