Backup & disaster recovery
A failed drive or an accidentally deleted folder can take important files with it. I will set you up with automatic backups and plan how to recover your files and systems when something goes wrong.
For your home
- Automatic backups for photos, documents, and other important files
- Checking what your existing backups include, and where they’re kept
- Local, cloud, and offsite backup options that fit your needs and budget
- Help restoring files or getting set up on a replacement computer or other device after a failure
- Make sure that the backup works and we can restore your data
For your business
- Identifying the files, applications, and systems your daily work depends on
- Setting up automatic backups for computers, devices, and shared storage
- Keeping backup copies separate from everyday systems and your workplace
- Planning the order and steps for restoring essential services
- Backup and switchover options where downtime would be especially costly
What to expect
We agree on priorities
Some files are irreplaceable. Some systems need to be working sooner than others. We will identify what matters most, how much recent work you could afford to lose, and how long you could manage without access.
Check that recovery works
I check that important files are included in your backups and test restoring them. That helps uncover missing folders, access problems, or other gaps before you need the backup in a hurry.
A plan you can follow
You will get an explanation of the recovery steps, what is needed, and what could affect the time involved. We can revisit the plan when your equipment, important files, or business needs change.

Not sure what you need?
That’s a perfectly good place to start. You don’t need a complete list of your files or a recovery plan already written. Just tell me what you’d hate to lose or what you couldn’t work without, and we can go from there.
