Online Data Backup for Small, Medium, and Enterprise Business Online Backup Services

Online Data Backup

WHEN you lose significant data...

Will you be in the 93% of companies that will go out of business after it happens??

No! Because CRC will guarantee that you will never lose properly backed up data -- for less than the cost of a comparable tape backup system.

Let's face it. Online Backup is not very exciting, and it's not going to drive more traffic to your website or double your sales. But we all know that if you don't do it, you place your business at risk.

In fact, even if you do it -- but do it wrong, you've wasted time and money...and worse...put your financial future at risk. When the time comes to restore...if you don't have what you need, you're in big trouble.

If you're learning, evaluating, or ready to buy Online Backup services, we hope CRC DataProtection will be a great resource for you. This page will discuss three topics: Why Online Backup is the best solution, common shortcomings of online services and how we we overcome them, and things to keep in mind when chosing a provider.

Why Choose Online Backup?

Automated Online Backup will absolutely save your business from disaster if implemented properly. Once you get things set up, you can almost forget about it unless you get an email saying something went wrong (such as your Internet connection was down).

With CRC DataProtection, as you'll see, even if your Internet connection fails, you will still have a local backup copy. You can have files backed up within seconds of them changing, and you can do it without putting undue burden on your people, servers, or Internet connections.

Need to restore? 24x7x365 if the time comes when you need to restore, you can do so without our intervention -- and without additional costs. You can protect email, database, system settings, and of course, files. Our technology enables all of this to be available at a price you can cost justify -- starting as low as $70 per month for up to 10 Gigabytes.

We will help you every step of the way, and we will help you to: find and identify critical files (one one PC, or across an entire network), get critical files protected for as many generations as you need, identify data that is important but not critical, and get that protected at half the cost of critical information, and teach you how to use the software.

Our software can be as simple to operate (like files on a single PC or laptop), or as complex as high-end computing demands (Exchange and Notes single message restore, enterprise database backup, and bare-metal server restores).

We offer a 30 day free trial, and a contract that you can terminate with 30 days notice.

Both Service and Software matter, however. Insist on the best of both.

Why Choose Our Software?

While we believe we offer the best solution -- one that solves all the problems with Online Backup, unfortunately Online Backup seems to have a reputation with some people who think that, while it is a good thing, it has several negatives. Some people think it is too slow, too expensive, and takes too much bandwidth.

We got in to the Online Backup business because we felt that there were significant opportunities for improvement -- and we are happy to report that the software that we use to provide this service, Asigra, has met every challenge we saw. Before Asigra, it did take too long to restore large amounts of information -- and too much bandwidth.

Making matters worse, many companies would set you up and you'd never hear from them again (except each month when they sent an invoice). Meanwhile, you would install new programs -- and because it was too expensive to back up an entire disk, the new programs were not being backed up. If the end user fogot to change the settings, they would lose their information despite the fact they were paying to protect it..

CRC DataProtection was established to help people safely back up and NOT have these problems.

The CRC DataProtection Service provides the ability to perform Storage Discovery on a regular basis -- helping to make sure that new information that appears on the network is found -- and backed up. To speed up the restore process a 'Local Restore' option solves the problem by preserving -- at your office -- as many copies of information as you are preserving on our vaults.

Should you need to restore from a loss that did not result from a total site loss, it can be done as quickly as computers can copy files across a Local Area Network -- and the local copy can be replicated to your home or other office -- so even a total site loss can be restored quickly.

We have provided a way to affordably back up all of your critical information -- by putting information that does not change frequently on -- just as safe -- vaults that are available in hours (compared to our main vaults which are instantly available). We also solve the problem of your changing storage needs by regularly consulting and reminding you to use our tools to find new storage that isn't being backed up -- to make sure that it will be.

Finally, we provide all of the above whether you have one office, or hundreds of locations that need to be backed up -- and provide the tools to oversee ALL of those backups from one easy-to-use program on your desktop.

Why CRC DataProtection?

CRC has been in business since 1993, and we pour millions of dollars in to our solutions. Not all companies make the extreme investments necessary to offer business critical solutons.

10 Reasons to Try CRC

1. CRC is powered by Asigra; a solution unmatched in the industry as verified by the award icons at the top-right-hand portion of this page (scroll up and click on them to read more).

2. CRC has been in business since 1993. CRC protects the business critical information of over 1,000 companies -- many of them the name brands that you see in major retail stores every day. In fact, CRC protects the information of major retailers as well. CRC has spent 16 years building rock-solid infrastructure and world-class security and protection systems.

3. At CRC, we don't simply sign you up and forget about you -- we take an active role in your Online Backup. We assign an account manager to your account, and it is the account manager's responsibility to call your company each month to consult and make sure that all of your information stays protected. Our management team reviews the call logs and makes certain that as your needs change, the service we provide changes with them.

4. Our pricing is reasonable. It is not the lowest pricing available, but we guarantee our service. We provide Service Level Guarantees, and via our automatic Verification and Self-Healing systems, we guarantee that you will be able to access and restore your information when you need it. There are no hidden charges for restoring. So, while you can find Online Backup services for less money, we believe that for the price we charge, we offer the best, most accountable, and reliable system out there.

5. In fact, we even provide tools to help you monitor our service levels. If our vaults are ever down, the SLA Monitoring Tool will let you know -- and automatically adjust your invoice to not charge you for the time we were down. (Note: we have never been down.)

6. Our software automatically updates -- without your intervention -- and without interrupting your backups. For example: Continuous Online Backup and Message Level Restore are two new features. When they became avavailable, our clints got them automatically. So you never need to worry about falling behind. As technology progresses, you progress with it.

7. Our software allows you to keep a handle on the cost of our service. There is a budgeting feature that lets you enter a maximum amount you are willing to pay for offsite protection. Should your charges exceed your budget in any given month, you will get notification to ensure that you are alerted and call us -- or we call you -- to get things under control.

8. We understand that data changes value as it ages. While the information you are running your business with today would cause great harm if lost (and you were unable to retrieve it immediately), last year's information -- while important -- does not need to be immediately available. But it is still very important in the event of an audit or discovery process. Understanding these truths prompted us to offer 'Backup Lifecycle Management' which is a tool that lets you ensure that last year's (or for some businesses...last month's) information is just as safe as last night's. But the important part of the story is that you are paying half as much to store last year's data -- and the only tradeoff to you is that it takes a few hours to restore it should you need it.

9. Delta Blocking. It seems like a simple idea: if a huge file changes (let's say that one word in a dictonary that is already backed up changes) -- the computer should just backup the one word -- not the whole dictionary. Easy to say, but not easy to do. However, CRC DataProtection does it. What this means to you is the storage you pay for is only the initial storage you back up, and only the smallest part of each file that changes. CRC DataProtection is sophisticated enough to remember all the changes, and reassemble any file that needs to be restored -- quickly, accurately, and reliably -- no matter what the operating system. Starting from scratch, it is estimated that this technology would cost ten to fifteen million dollars to develop; but you can take advantage of it for as little as $70 per month.

10. CRC wants to earn your business. We understand that the more companies we serve, and the better we serve them, the more successful we will be. We only succeed by ensuring, and even guaranteeing, that you succeed in your Online Backup needs.
