The Challenge

The challenge was to remove the risk of having on site backup tapes and a slow recovery process caused by legacy equipment. Their current tape backup solution had been installed over 8 years ago and their data had increased year-by-year and the tapes could not hold anymore business data. The charity needed to cover GDPR compliance and support their internal business plan for IT recovery planning.

PDQ cloud backup

Result

  • Identified all of the data, documenting the backup strategy
  • Migration of all the data to our UK cloud backup service
  • Backup of their 365 email every 3 hours

We performed various steps in order to understand their individual requirements; we were then able to recommend PDQ 365 Cloud backup.
