Why Offsite Backup?

By now, just about everyone knows someone who has experienced a problem with data loss. It's not a matter of "if" you will lose your data, it's a matter of "when".   Hard drive crashes, human error, hackers, corruption, viruses, fire, flood, theft, disgruntled employees, data loss is a fact of life. The single most valuable insurance you can buy is Datumguard Offsite Backup. 

Fortunately, Internet technology has now allowed for a vastly superior method of backing up your data: offsite backup. Offsite backup has considerable advantages over other computer backup methods.

Offsite Backup is automatic.

Once the Datumguard software is installed and configured, backups start automatically. You never have to change disks, rotate tapes, or label CD's.
