IT Disaster Recovery Services

IT Disaster Recovery Services in Charlotte, NC

Even with the best business continuity planning in place, when an unexpected disaster strikes, you have to be in a position where you’re up and running with your IT systems as fast as possible.

And in order to plan for natural disasters, fire damage, water flooding, or a burglary, it’s important to have a team that has planned all the details and is ready to execute that plan.

For most small and medium-sized businesses, having such an in-house team is not going to be an option. And that’s where disaster recovery as a service (DRAAS) becomes a vital solution to avoid unnecessary hardship.

Let us show you what our team at Charlotte IT Solutions can offer you as a leading DRAAS service provider.

WHAT IS DISASTER RECOVERY AS A SERVICE?

Disaster recovery as a service is a process by which you can outsource the critical workload to a DRAAS provider. The external team will then take care of creating a disaster recovery plan, setting up all the services needed, and monitoring for potential threats.

Also, when disaster strikes, this team will be on standby to get your IT systems up and running with as little time delay as possible.

The whole idea is to avoid data loss and ensure that you have a full backup of all your critical data and software systems.

And you gain all this added IT system and data protection at a fraction of the cost of hiring an in-house team.

WHY IS IT IMPORTANT TO HAVE A DATA BACKUP AND DISASTER RECOVERY SOLUTION

Coming up with your own disaster recovery plans to prevent data loss involves a lot of careful analysis of your entire IT infrastructure. And if there is any small flaw in your plan, then the worst-case scenario can turn into exactly that.

Your plan will only be as robust as its weakest link.

To ensure that you have all the possible angles covered to protect and restore data, you need a highly experienced team, as it involves more than just having a basic self-service DRAAS with automated backups.

If you can financially and operationally afford such a team in-house, then that can certainly be a great option. But most companies will be better off hiring an outsourced service provider.

HOW DOES THIS SERVICE WORK?

When you hire a DRAAS provider like Charlotte IT Solutions, an external team will work with your employees to create a full map of all the IT systems, data storage devices, desktop computers, mobile devices, and anything else your teams rely on for day-to-day work.

By understanding what the most critical systems and storage devices are, DRAAS providers then go through disaster recovery planning processes to ensure everything can be backed up and recovered from off-site services.

In the event of a natural disaster, fire, flooding, or cyber attack, this external team will also be involved in making sure that you experience a rapid recovery with as little disruption as possible.

OUR COMMITMENT TO CLIENTS

Here are Charlotte IT Solutions, we have built a reputation for dedication to understanding our clients’ businesses. This has allowed us to better tailor a disaster recovery plan to the specific needs of industries and organizations.

And as the leading DRAAS provider in North and South Carolina, we can help you maintain business continuity even in the worst-case scenario.

BUSINESS CONTINUITY PLANNING

Business continuity shouldn’t be just about your ability to recover lost data in the event of natural disasters, fire, flooding, or burglary. What our team aims to do is create a disaster recovery plan that ensures your business operations suffer as little disruption as possible. The more confidence you have that systems will be up and running fast, and you can continue to work with clients and vendors, the less you’ll have to worry about such disasters. While your peace of mind in such situations is important, it’s also a great way to promote yourself to your clients as being able to continue your services if the same natural disaster affects a larger area.

FULLY OUTSOURCED SOLUTION

When you partner with us, we’ll ensure that you have the best possible systems in place for secure backup data. And we’ll also make sure that you have fast and secure access to those back-ups without having to wait hours or days. We can arrange this through a virtual or cloud-based data center, which has the added benefit of providing an even more robust solution to protect from widespread disaster outages. We can also help you choose an external disaster recovery site that would allow you to relocate critical business teams if you didn't have access to your office space for a while.

BACKUP VALIDATION TESTING

Any disaster recovery plan is only as strong and reliable as it can be tested. It’s great to use theory for how you will deal with certain situations, but until you fully test a data recovery execution, you won’t know if the plan will work. Our team at Charlotte IT Solutions will help you to run disaster recovery tests to identify shortfalls before they become a problem. This method will give you the confidence that you can indeed recover data from a service provider’s cloud system and allow you to operate as close to full capacity as possible.

24/7 MONITORING

Part of our recovery point objective aims to ensure that your disaster recovery plan naturally grows with your business. By constantly monitoring your systems on a 24/7 basis, our intelligent systems will ensure that new devices and storage space get the necessary attention. If you introduce new data storage or expand your product and service range, we can ensure that you don't have to worry about those systems being recoverable.

ADVANCED ENCRYPTION

Whether you use physical or virtual servers for your disaster recovery backups, you need to be certain that all data exchanges happen in a fully encrypted way. You simply can’t afford to become the victim of cyber criminals that might try to intercept sensitive and confidential data about clients and vendors. Here at Charlotte IT Solutions, we have worked with businesses in many highly regulated industries, including health care, dental, education, and finance. And that has given us key insights into understanding your regulatory obligations for data storage and backups.

FAST CLOUD RECOVERY

As part of our recovery time objective, we set very ambitious goals to ensure you are up and running in the fastest possible time. A lot of that will depend on the overall plan, data center location, private or public cloud services, and whether you have chosen to have access to virtual machines at an offsite location. But our disaster recovery as a service will give you clear guidance as to how fast you can be operational in different situations, allowing you to make an educated decision on how much budget you want to allocate.
