We work with Veeam®, the leader in backup solutions that deliver Cloud Data Management™ to ensure the managed backup solutions we provide, whether cloud, on premise or hybrid are simple, flexible and reliable. Working with Veeam® allows us to backup your data whether it be cloud, virtual or physical from a single platform.

Sometimes you might need to retain your backups for longer than your usual backup schedule allows. We can work with you to either setup a long term retention policy, often known as a G-F-S or grandfather, father, son backup, or backup archiving where we store specific backups externally for longer than your usual backups. This can be useful if you need to retain backups for a longer period for compliance or regulatory reasons. 

As our reliance on IT and the importance of data grows it is a useful business tool to be able to analyse and interrogate your environment. We can use your backup solution to create a replica of your live data which can be used for intensive reporting, fault finding or test upgrades without affecting the performance of your live environment and with no risk to data. 

A common phrase in the IT3000 office is that a backup is not a backup until it has been restored! We will work with you to carry out regular disaster recovery tests where we interrogate your backups to check for faults or corruptions and to compare data against your live environment. We also carry out test restores based on your company's disaster recovery plan to ensure that, in the unlikely event that a full restore to new hardware is needed, everything works as expected.
