The old adage that ‘bad things happen to good people’ applies just as much to good businesses. In the information age, many otherwise healthy and profitable businesses can be irreparably damaged or even destroyed by unforeseen events that wipe out or render unavailable their technology infrastructure. InLine’s new suite of products can help you protect yourself from the unthinkable.
With the start of what looks to be another active hurricane season right around the corner, many business owners are considering what they can do to protect themselves and their valuable data. Disasters come in many shapes and forms, many that do not make the national news. Fires, floods, catastrophic hardware failure, all can render the information systems on which your business depends unavailable for extended periods of time. How will you continue to service your customers in the event of one of these kinds of disasters? How can you continue to function if you don’t know how much your customers owe you, or perhaps even who they are? How will your customers get in touch with you if your telephone or e-mail communications systems are rendered useless? InLine can help!
At one time, a disaster recovery service meant 5 figure monthly contracts and a fleet of tractor trailer trucks packed with hardware showing up in your parking lot. The combination of a number of new technologies, united with InLine’s experience and unique set of capabilities, have come together to allow us to offer a completely different paradigm of service. By combining several core services, we can ensure that you have reliable access to all of the services you need to get your company back in business quickly and effectively at a cost you can afford.
Advances in technologies such as replication and server virtualization allow us to take regular snapshots of the exact contents of your business critical servers and send those complete images with all your data and programs intact to InLine’s secure data center. You then have the security of knowing that your operations are being protected on a minute-by-minute basis. For clients requiring additional security, we can also replicate this information to our Atlanta data center to provide another level of protection. In the event of a disaster, all that is required to get your business back to basic functionality is simple internet access. Logistically, your business base could be in a hotel or other facility with broadband internet access, or if your employees have access, they could work from home.
This valuable service is complemented by our InTouch phone service, which allows your telephone system to move seamlessly to any location with Internet access, and our InGuard service, which allows us to cache your incoming e-mail for up to 7 days while InLine helps your business get temporary e-mail services back up and running.
