Information Management Systems Introduces New Service IMS Business Continuity Solution

Fargo, ND - A new service is being offered for businesses that currently use tape backup systems to backup their data. Information Management Systems is introducing the IMS Business Continuity Solution (BCS) for businesses to safely backup their financial data, client information, and files several times a day and then upload the summary data backup to a secure, offsite data center at the end of the day. Tapes have to be manually rotated and all tape drives will fail at some point. Most companies won’t realize their tape drives have failed until it’s too late.

Here is how the Business Continuity Solution works:

• The first backup of your data is transferred to a base unit hard drive and sent offsite.
• All of your backups after the initial backup are incremental which means that only changes to your data need to be backed up. This allows for quick and easy snapshots of your data to be backed up several times per day, which only takes minutes and can be done while your staff is working on their computers.
• Your data is safe from fire, floods, storms, viruses, hackers, hardware malfunctions, and human error. Your data is protected by not only one offsite facility, but by two offsite facilities for even more peace of mind that your data will be there when you need it.
• You can back up ALL of your data and not be limited to the size of your tape drive.
• In the event that you need to restore your data, the process is very user friendly. You just copy the files you need from the local backed up environment to your local system. You don’t need help desk support to retrieve the files you need.
• If you experience a failed server, you can instantly recover the files. You don’t even need the same type of server you had as your replacement.
