Customers demand extra security for data

MoreSoft, one of Ireland’s most progressive and innovative IT companies have recently signed a partnership agreement to transfer all of their managed services accounts to the keepITsafe online backup for business platform. The partnership is a result of customers demanding extra security for their data.

The partnership came to fruition when MoreSoft made a business decision to standardise and streamline their entire backup offering with one supplier. “Our ethos is to offer cost effective but professional service without compromise and when keepITsafe approached us we soon learnt that they were the only online backup company with ISO certification. This basically means that they are the highest certified and secure online backup company in Ireland. We can take no chances with our customer’s data” stated Brendan Molloy, Sales Director, MoreSoft.

No one readily admits to liking insurance, especially paying for it BUT when something goes wrong everyone is extremely thankful they have it. The very same thing can be said about online backup. It needs to also be considered as an insurance policy for your data. Online backup in its simple form is the copying of files over the Internet and storing it remotely in another location.

Along with many other IT companies MoreSoft recognised the need to offer customers a secure and affordable way to backup their data with the guarantee that data would be available in the event of a file deletion, corruption or natural disaster.

There are still those that argue that their IT departments routinely employ tape cartridges to handle all storage requirements. Tape cartridges are expensive and have a limited lift span and in many cases restoration is impossible due to tape degradation. This type of backup is useless, unless validated and a copy is sent offsite adding to costs and time. Also it takes an exceptional amount of knowledge to configure, maintain and restore information to a tape.

What companies want and what they are seeking out is a simple solution requiring little to no amount of companies resources long term. This is the gap for online backup. By simply downloading the software and installing it onto your PC or server and allowing the provider to manage and monitor, you can administer a secure online backup strategy. What many do not realise is that this can be an automated procedure conducted at regular intervals and monitored by experts to allow them to react in the event of a file deletion or server crash.

“We have found the entire process simple. It’s what we want and it’s what our customers want. What is simpler than sending your encrypted, password-protected data to multiple datacentres over the Internet?” continued Brendan.
