Original Press Release:
BlueBackUp Revolutionizes Disaster Recovery by Introducing an Affordable DR Plan for Businesses
BRUSSELS, July 8/--BlueBackUp announces the launch of its new Disaster Recovery service, which significantly reduces the level of risk for companies by enabling them to restore their business quickly after a major incident - at a cost that is considerably lower than a conventional DRP, while also providing a broader level of service than its competitors.
Implementing a business recovery plan can be both complex and costly. Also, in the light of the current economic crisis, it comes a no surprise to learn that almost 50% of companies employing between 100 and 1,000 staff prefer not to invest in a comprehensive Disaster Recovery Plan.
There can be a number of reasons for this: the cost of investment may be too high, the business may lack infrastructure or be short of qualified staff. Also, by calling on a company that specialises in DR that also supplies backup offices and hardware, businesses are still ultimately responsible for the most critical part of the recovery process: rebuilding their servers and IT data.
BlueBackUp's new Disaster Recovery offering represents a highly attractive alternative for companies that do not have the budget or infrastructure needed to establish a full DRP.
How does the BlueBackUp Disaster Recovery Plan work?
- If there is a server crash or serious incident in the office, the customer's data is restored on physical/virtual servers at BlueBackUp's data centre (DR site).
- During the time it takes for new servers to become operational, the customer can connect remotely (via a VPN connection) to the DR site, where its critical applications will have been restored. This enables customers to restart their business within a very short space of time (3, 12, 24, 48 hours, etc.).
- BlueBackUp can also make backup offices and hardware available to companies that need them.
- Unlike other Disaster Recovery providers, BlueBackUp takes responsibility for rebuilding the customer's applications ? which represents a genuine added value in comparison with conventional DR services.
What are the main benefits of BlueBackUp compared with a conventional DRP?
- Business operations are back up and running within a very short space of time should disaster strike, plus greater flexibility of service
- In cases where customers are already backing up their data at our data centres, BlueBackUp is in the ideal position to help them recover their data very quickly
- Customers can choose the actual amount of time it takes to restart their business.
- No need to worry about the maintenance and cost of a disaster recovery site or finding replacement hardware
- Emergency spare servers are maintained by BlueBackUp at its own data centre.
- BlueBackUp handles the task of finding backup offices for customers who need it.
- Unlike conventional Disaster Recovery Plans, it is BlueBackUp itself that takes charge of the entire procedure of rebuilding data.
- Customers can also test the disaster recovery plan with a few mouse-clicks so that they are ready should disaster strike one day.
"Being able to guarantee business continuity should a major problem occur is a real worry for companies. explains Philip Wittmann, BlueBackUp's founder. "But not at any price - especially in the current economic climate. "With BlueBackUp and by combining backup and Disaster Recovery, every company can now protect itself against these serious risks, as well as implement a Business Continuity Plan that will deliver unbeatable value for money, whatever its size and scope."
