IT service provider in Boise is suggesting backup solutions in combination with cloud bases applications. One out of three companies using cloud-based applications report losing data in those applications. The #1 cause of this data loss is user error. The twenty-five day trash the cloud provides is not a good data backup solution when your employee accidentally deleted the data weeks earlier, meaning the data is now lost permanently.
Even big tech companies like, Microsoft and Google, recommend utilizing a third-party backup solution for their cloud hosted services.
A constantly growing number of companies are using Office 365 and Google Workspace for business operations. More and more it has become evident that these companies’ disaster recovery plans are not stacking up, causing them to lose valuable data. Just like backup is important for on-premises data, it is also important in the cloud. Another common cause for data loss is licensing issues. There are a lot of ways that the cloud licensing model can cause issues with your data retention.
That is why we recommend protecting your cloud data the same way that you protected your on-premises data. Don’t become a statistic! Protect your businesses data from corruption, deletion, ransomware and accidental issues.
