There was a time when we all operated without a backup solution. Then as people started to think about disaster recovery we all rushed out to put a backup solution in place. For the majority of businesses however that backup solution is usually right next to the server and is never taken off site. Without an offsite backup solution you can fairly argue that you don’t have a backup solution at all.

Now that sounds harsh but the reality is that if you have a fire or theft is unlikely that either will politely leave you backup alone for your business to continue. With most businesses going bust within 12 months of a fire or flood the importance of an off-site solution is vital.

At GEEX we can offer a number of solutions but a favourite is our cloud storage. But what is Cloud Storage?  “Cloud storage” generally refers to a product which enables people and/or businesses to store data remotely in secure servers. Meaning, you can store your files in a secure place on the internet and then download or view the files through an internet connected device.

Our Backup folder is like a mirror of your hard drive. The software that we use creates a copy of the files on your computer and places them in the Cloud. This makes sure that you never lose your files, even if their computer is stolen or breaks.

As you would expect, if you create, edit, or delete a file on your computer, the same will happen to the file in the cloud.

The costs of our cloud service are £291.67 + VAT per annum and include the following:

Installation and transfer of data across to the cloud archive.

Many of our customers have account managers who are on the road, who like to access PDFs and alike when out in the field.  Then we can add our Briefcase solution to your package for £49.99 + VAT per annum and gives an additional 512MB of data.

The briefcase technology lets your employees access their files anywhere. It adds a new drive to their PC or Mac, and files they put there are synchronised between all of their computers. They can login online to view and even edit their documents from the web browser, and they can use our free mobile apps to access their files on the move. We can add extra 512MB of data for £14.99 + Vat per annum if you thought you would need more for the briefcase solution.
