Consonus Remote Backup Service

Traditional remote backup solutions, which are difficult and costly to operate, no longer align with the increasing value of data. Backup failure rates associated with these solutions result in an inability to restore needed data at a time when increasingly stringent regulations have made offsite data protection and recoverability a critical business decision.

The need for Cost-Effective Backup Strategies
Let’s face it, today’s firms face a lot of Information Technology challenges with finding, managing, and maintaining backup solutions that address current and future needs, and identifying an efficient, cost-effective, reliable, and secure tool that makes it easy to recover data. Today’s IT staff spends too much time worrying about, and managing in-house data backup and recovery. This is an unnecessary drain on precious IT resources, especially from a cost perspective. And evolving regulatory requirements are nearly impossible to keep up with. Consonus Remote Backup Service is a unique alternative to traditional data backup recovery methods, replacing conventional solutions with a fully automated online data backup solution.
