What Could Tornadoes and Unexpected Events Mean to Your Business?

Houses, businesses and property were recently damaged across North Carolina.  Reports have indicated that around $100M of damages were caused by tornadoes.  WingSwept, a Garner-based technology firm, encourages you to keep reaching out to your neighbors who are in need of our relief efforts.

 

Beyond the physical harm that the storms caused, businesses lost power, connectivity and data.  As a small contribution, an engineer at WingSwept took it upon himself to setup wireless Internet access before lunchtime on Sunday at the command site for the North Carolina Baptist Men disaster relief team.

 

A couple weeks later, WingSwept’s team would like local businesses to rethink how they manage data.  Unexpected events, from natural disasters to human error, cause loss of critical information on a daily basis.

 

WingSwept considers data backup an insurance policy for your business. Losing data could mean more than lost information, but could result in loss of reputation and loss of business.  Some businesses do not have a backup policy at all while others don’t consistently carry out their backup procedures.

 

WingSwept offers data security through managed services for clients who want backups properly done on a consistent basis. Contact WingSwept at 919-600-5100 for more information on backup solutions and disaster recovery services.

Are you prepared for the next computer crash?

If you are a business professional of today, then you are most likely on the move and rely heavily on technology to connect you to your work.  When you are traveling, you may transfer important data to your laptop and work on it away from the office.  Perhaps you have to go home at the end of the day, but find your self plugging away on internal corporate documents on your personal PC.  If you are doing any of this, you are not alone! When was the last time you backed up your personal or corporate data on your off-site machines? You are also not alone if you haven’t ever backed it up.

Most people don’t understand how much critical information they carry around in their laptop or personal PCs until they crash, are stolen, or files are accidentally deleted.  Some irreplaceable documents you may be carrying are HR documents, time/expense reports, and client files. Laptops often have a short lifespan and disasters are likely to occur.

Many believe that backing up files on a personal computer is too expensive and difficult to do, but WingSwept is here to clear up the misconception.  Protecting your off-site machines can be simple, affordable, and accessible through the Internet.  If you want to see for yourself, try out WingSwept’s reliable online solution for your laptop or personal PC with a FREE 30 day trial.
