Fire and lightning are only two disasters that can cause a total loss of equipment, and even more importantly, your financial data. Add water damage, ventilation and cooling system failures, or computer viruses to the mix, and there is a real possibility for catastrophe.
Imagine the impact - you can't access BudgetSense. And even if you could, the databases that store your payroll, purchasing, tax receipts, everything - are gone.
You're basically dead in the water - no paychecks, no vendor payments, no cash collections. In short, you are out of business. So what is your plan to prevent, or at least recover from, total data loss? How would you pay employees? How would you rebuild your system?
If a disaster happens today, it's already too late to ask these questions. The solution is completely worthless to you.
You need a Disaster Recovery and Continuity (DR&C) plan in place BEFORE the alarms go off. Chances are, your insurance carrier, your Board, and even your auditors are already pressuring you to develop a proactive and demonstratable plan of action too. Can you honestly reassure them that all is safe and sound?
If you are struggling to produce an effective and affordable response, then you are not alone. Many UniFund clients have asked us to help solve this dilemma. We heard you, and now have an answer for you! At the 2009 Idea Summit events, we announced the release of our DR&C solution.
Here's how this service subscription works:
- We install a remote backup agent on your BudgetSense server.
- The backup agent automatically sends daily copies of your database to a secured remote data center.
- Daily, monthly, and annual snapshots of your data are preserved and completely protected.
- UniFund monitors the condition of each snapshot to ensure that each one has data integrity.
- If a disaster strikes, UniFund initiates the recovery process.
- If your server is destroyed, we retrieve and restore your latest backup copy on UniFund's server farm, so that a limited number of users can process data from your site.
- When your new equipment is in place, we re-install your software licenses and databases. You're back in business.
It's hard to put a dollar value to peace of mind, but no doubt you can add up the labor hours lost to forced down-time, and then to data reentry as you try to rebuild what is lost. Instead, avoid panic and anxiety with the UniFund DR&C solution. You'll be up and running, ready to get that payroll out.
Recovery will be routine, and under control.
It's an affordable, recurring, annual subscription. To find out more about our Disaster Recovery and Continuity solution and how it will benefit you, contact your UniFund sales representative.
