Automatic backups for all your systems: reliably back up databases, files, and configurations, test them, and restore in emergencies.
Data loss is one of the most existentially threatening risks for businesses. Whether from hardware failure, ransomware attack, human error, or natural disaster — without functioning backups, a single event can mean the end of a company. According to a study by Acronis, 93% of companies that experience data loss of 10 or more days don't survive the following year.
Yet many SMBs rely on manual backup processes: an admin sporadically creates database dumps, copies files to an external hard drive, or manually clicks "start backup" in the cloud console. These backups are irregular, incomplete, and — worst of all — untested. Only in an emergency does it become apparent that the last working backup is three weeks old or that restoration doesn't work.
Especially critical: modern businesses store data across dozens of different systems — databases, SaaS tools, cloud storage, email mailboxes, code repositories. A complete backup strategy must cover all these sources, maintain different retention periods, and regularly verify backup integrity. Manually, this is barely manageable with more than two systems.
Our backup workflow automatically secures all your critical data sources on a configurable schedule. Databases are backed up incrementally every hour and fully every day. File servers and cloud storage are continuously synchronized. SaaS data (CRM, helpdesk, project management) is exported via APIs and archived with versioning.
The key differentiator: every backup is automatically tested. After each backup, the workflow performs a restore test on an isolated test environment and verifies data integrity via checksums. If a backup fails or is corrupt, an alert is immediately triggered and a replacement backup is started.
Backups are stored following the 3-2-1 rule: three copies, on two different media, one offsite. Retention periods are configurable — typical: 30 days of daily backups, 12 months of monthly backups, 7 years of annual backups for tax-relevant data. A dashboard shows the status of all backups, the last successful backup, and storage consumption.
Databases (MySQL, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Redis), file systems (local, NAS, S3), SaaS data (HubSpot, Zendesk, Jira, Google Workspace), email mailboxes, Git repositories, and any API-based services.
Restore time depends on data volume. Typical: databases under 50GB in under 15 minutes, file systems up to 1TB in under an hour. For critical systems, hot standby solutions can be configured.
Yes, all backups are encrypted with AES-256 — both in transit and at rest. Encryption keys are managed separately and securely.
We analyze your process and show you the concrete savings potential — no strings attached.
