Why Do I Need To Backup?

Everyone knows what backup is, but many businesses don’t take it seriously. Or they underestimate the costs and risks of having inadequate or no backup in place.

At Muscatech, our backup technologies are flexible. For your mission critical systems, we can guarantee you will be up and running again within your business expectations following a major incident. Muscatech also guarantees you will lose no more than 15 minutes of work using our onsite recovery product.

Muscatech backup solutions provide both onsite hardware that keeps local copies of your backups to allow for fast recovery times. A further layer of cloud-based protection safeguards your business against natural disasters such as fire and flood. We will work with you to backup according to your budget to ensure risks are limited and your business is protected in a cost-effective way.

There are two key criteria that your backup solution must meet:

The Recovery Time Objective (RTO) & the Recovery Point Objective (RPO)

The RTO is the maximum amount of time your business can afford to be without a service while it is being restored.
The RPO is how often a backup needs to be taken of your systems.
