Backups, your most important friend.

11/03/2010
 

Our lives have changed so much that we cannot do business without having a computer on our desk. Even at home we just have to have a computer to surf the internet, do homework or just to relax and talk to your friends and family on Skype and Facebook. All our digital photos are stored on the computer, hundreds of them!!

Then one day your computer does not switch on and it strike you like lightning...."I don't have a backup of any of the information on this PC that just died on me!!!". This can be caused by so many factors. Especially power outages, viruses and old hard drives.

Hours of work, valuable information, precious photo memories and so much more will be destroyed - forever.

It happened to me once. I had a program on the PC that controlled the access gates. One day the power tripped; like so many times before. When I switched on the trip switch, the hard drive blew up! It cost me R 5,600 to get that one program's data back on CD. The access control could not be updated for two weeks. Just because I did not have a backup. But what if the data could not be recovered? I don't even want to think about it!

We all know how important backups are, but we just don't find the time to do it. It just takes a few minutes and we are safe. But who likes to sit and watch the computer backup some files??

This is where I come in. It would be an Honor to protect your DATA by doing your backups for you on your site. I will be your reminder and your hands to do the backups for you.

How will this work? 

  • * There is an initial investigation to establish the amount of data that needs to be backed up.
     
  • * Thereafter a setup fee (starting from R950 incl.)  is payable to start the process for the backup.
    This fee covers the backup drive (portable, not less than 160GB of storage space) and one months time slot fee. 
     
  • * You will be allocated a time slot for the backup on your premises. There are 40 time slots available at this moment. Monday to Friday, 4 weeks a month, 8am to 10am and 14:30pm to 16:30pm. Each time slot will cost R350 incl. and it is used for backups.
    The remaining hours are for Restoring the data if requested. 
     
  • * As an introductory offer, no costs are involved for restoring the data.
     
  • * The drive will be password protected. If it is stolen then no one without the password will have access to your data.
     
  • * Each company will have its own hard drive with password. It is preferred that one backup drive is used per computer for the backup and not all the computers on one backup drive.

The backups may be stored on site or off-site. Off-site storage will be done at no extra cost and will be preferred. If there is a fire at your site, the PC as well as the Backups may be damaged. The choice is up to you.

While the backup is running, I will check for viruses as well. If you do not have an Anti-Virus, I will advice you on the different versions and you may purchase one to keep your computer from being affected by viruses.
