SmartBackup features
Onsite Backup – Fast and reliable local backups
With onsite backups stored on a secure local backup drive, data recovery is quick and efficient. Whether it’s a system crash or accidental file deletion, most recovery scenarios can be resolved in minutes. For added reliability, our network backup drive comes with a lifetime warranty.
Cloud Backup – Secure Offsite Storage in Microsoft Azure
For added peace of mind, SmartBackup stores copies of your data securely in Microsoft Azure, protecting it from physical damage, theft, and cyber threats. Unlike local backups that can be compromised in events like fire or ransomware attacks, cloud backups remain secure and easily accessible. Even in the event of a major outage, your data is always available when you need it.
Did you know? 60% of businesses that lose critical data shut down within six months—a secure cloud backup can prevent this.
Monthly Backup Verification & Test Restores
A backup is only valuable if it works when you need it. We conduct a full test restore every month to confirm that your backups are functional and recoverable. This is a crucial step for businesses that require compliance assurance, regulatory reporting, or cyber insurance validation.
Only 23% of businesses regularly test their backups—many don’t know if they work until it’s too late.
Proactive Backup Monitoring & Issue Resolution
Backups are only useful if they work when needed. Our system is actively monitored to detect any failures or issues before they become a problem. If a backup fails, our team is alerted immediately and takes action to resolve it. With continuous oversight, your data is always protected and ready for recovery.
Fact: A backup that isn’t actively monitored is likely to fail when restoration is needed.
Encryption & Ransomware Protection
SmartBackup keeps your data secure with end-to-end encryption, ensuring that backups cannot be accessed or altered by unauthorised users. Cloud backups are isolated from your local network, meaning they remain secure even if your systems are compromised by ransomware. This ensures that your business can always recover, no matter the threat.
In 2023, ransomware attacks surged by 93%, increasingly targeting UK businesses—secure backups are your best defence.
Monthly Reports & Compliance Assurance
For businesses that need transparency and compliance, SmartBackup includes detailed monthly reports. These reports provide insights into backup success rates, failures, and skipped backups, ensuring your business meets data protection regulations and insurance requirements. With documented backup performance, you’ll have the proof you need for audits and peace of mind.
