Do you need to backup your files?

- c: 30% of all businesses that have a major fire go out of business within a year – 70% fail within five years
- d: 93% of companies that lose their data centre for 10 days file for bankruptcy within one year
Do you know which statement is false?

FALSE – 31% of PC users have lost all of their files because they did not take proper backups
Yes, you need to backup your files.
At HDG we believe that a backup system needs to have four things to make it a…
No Brainer Backup Solution
- They must be EASY to set up
- They must be AUTOMATIC so that you don’t forget or keep putting it off
- They need to store the backup data OFF-SITE so if your PC catches fire it doesn’t take your backup with it
- They must be FANTASTIC VALUE FOR MONEY otherwise you may be tempted to go for a solution that is not EASY, AUTOMATIC or OFF-SITE
Which is why we use Livedrive from fmBackup to protect our documents, photos and music for only £2 a month.
