Why SMEs Need a Data Recovery Partner (Not Just a Backup Plan)
Think your backup drive or cloud subscription will save you when disaster strikes? Think again.
Most SMEs believe having “a backup” means they’re protected. But when fire, ransomware, or hardware failure hit, it’s the businesses with a tested recovery partner who survive. Enter R3 Data Recovery, the UK’s trusted specialist in SME data resilience.
The Backup Illusion
A backup is just data — unless it’s tested, secure, accessible, and integrated into a full recovery strategy. Problems often missed by SMEs include:
* Incomplete or corrupted backups
* Poorly defined Recovery Time Objectives (RTOs)
* Lack of recovery testing
* Vendor lock-in and slow cloud restores
* No help when panic hits
