Why do businesses need disaster
recovery backup software?
Businesses without dedicated disaster recovery software systems are vulnerable to multiple negative consequences, including:
Permanent loss of critical data
Data loss can have a devastating effect on any business.
Regulatory noncompliance
Inadequate or nonexistent backup disaster recovery solutions may violate industry regulations and result in fines or penalties.
Operational disruptions
Without a recovery plan, extended outages lead to prolonged downtime, lack of business continuity and drops in customer service.
Increased vulnerability to cyberattacks
Without reliable disaster recovery solutions, attackers are more likely to exploit vulnerabilities.
Financial loss
This often results directly from downtime or costly outlay associated with manual recovery efforts.
Loss of competitive advantage
Time spent recovering from disasters detracts from a company's core business, which can hinder its growth and competitive edge.
Reputational damage
This includes a negative impact on brand reputation, damaging media coverage and loss of customer trust.
