Disaster recovery services options for smaller businesses on a budget
If you run IT for a smaller midsized company, what kinds of affordable disaster recovery services are out there for you?
SearchCIO asked several leading DR providers about their managed disaster recovery and business continuity services for companies with up to about 200 employees. All of them offer disaster recovery services tailored to this segment.
With prices starting at $100 a month, SearchCIO found several options for organizations with a monthly budget in the hundreds of dollars, as well as a few priced in the low $1,000s. The difference? How fast you get access to your data after an outage, what you personally have to do to make that happen, and what else comes as part of the service, such as temporary access to applications hosted by the provider. Here’s an overview of options from two traditional DR providers, IBM and SunGard Availability Services LP.
