Business Continuity & Disaster Recovery
Your retail or restaurant business generates an enormous amount of very important and confidential data. Server crashes, weather related natural disasters, power outages and hacker attacks can all take down vital network systems.
- Easily and securely backup client records for whenever they need to be accessed or retrieved to protect against an unexpected outage or server failure.
- Significantly reduce the time it takes your business to recover from any event that causes downtime.
Do you have a Business Continuity Plan (BCP)?
- We can help you put a BCP in place and address the following concerns that directly impact your business:
- Identify what critical data is currently unsecured and ensure that it gets secured and properly backed up
- Guide you in selecting the right security solutions for a layered approach, based on your type of data and your specific compliance requirements.
Cloud Services
Cloud computing can help retail stores and restaurants improve performance in a number of ways.
Cost Savings and Usage-based Billing
With cloud computing, you can turn a large up-front capital expenditure into a smaller, ongoing operational cost. There is no need for heavy investments in new hardware and software. In addition, the unique nature of cloud computing allows retail and restaurant businesses to pick and choose the services required on a pay-as-you-go basis.
Business Continuity
With cloud computing, the provider is responsible for managing the technology.
You gain a higher level of data protection, fault tolerance, and disaster recovery. Cloud computing also provides a high level of redundancy and back-up at lower price than traditional managed solutions.
Business Agility and Focus
The flexibility of cloud-based operating models lets your business experience shorter development cycles for new products. This supports a faster and more efficient response to the needs of your customers. Since the cloud is available on-demand, less infrastructure investments are required, saving initial set-up time. Cloud computing also allows new product development to move forward without capital investment.
Cloud computing also enables businesses to move non-critical services to the cloud, including software patches, maintenance, and other computing issues. As a result, you can focus more on the business of retail sales or restaurant operations, not IT.
Sustainability leads to additional cost savings
Organizations can use cloud computing to transfer their services to a virtual environment that reduces the energy consumption and carbon footprint that comes from setting up a physical infrastructure. It also leads to more efficient utilization of computing power and less idle time.
