Backup Your Business
Disaster Recovery Data Backup is widely considered the most critical aspect of a business's day-to-day technology. You can’t afford to just hope your backup and recovery solution will work correctly when you have downtime or a catastrophic event. On average, a single downtime event of 60 minutes can cost a business upwards of $100,000 without a reliable backup appliance.
Despite the risk and exposure, many organizations will continue to disregard it completely. Still others have a plan, but the recovery process is inadequate and results in costly downtime. The data protection solutions used today have greatly improved the ease of use for many searching for backup and disaster recovery. With the large number of options in the market, let Clare Computer Solutions help you discover which solution fits your specific business needs today. Build synergy and improve workflow among internal staff, with the ability to save and restore emails, documents, images, or files.

What is Backup & Disaster Recovery (BDR)?
Backup & Disaster Recovery (BDR) is a comprehensive strategy designed to protect your business data and ensure continuity in the face of disruptions such as cyberattacks, hardware failures, or natural disasters. At Clare Computer Solutions, we combine regular data backups with a disaster recovery plan that enables your business to restore operations quickly and minimize downtime.
Why is BDR especially important for Bay Area businesses?
he Bay Area is uniquely vulnerable to threats like earthquakes, wildfires, and cybercrime. With a high concentration of tech-reliant businesses, any data loss or downtime can be costly. Clare Computer Solutions helps local businesses prepare for these risks by implementing robust BDR solutions tailored to their specific needs and industry requirements.
What types of backups does Clare Computer Solutions provide?
We offer cloud-based backups for secure offsite storage, local backups for rapid recovery, and hybrid solutions that combine both for maximum resilience. Our team works with you to determine the best mix based on your infrastructure, compliance needs, and recovery goals.
How frequently should backups be performed?
Backup frequency depends on your business operations. For most clients, we recommend daily backups for critical systems, hourly backups for high-transaction environments, and weekly full backups with daily incremental updates. Clare Computer Solutions customizes backup schedules to ensure optimal protection without disrupting your workflow.
How quickly can Clare Computer Solutions restore data after a disaster?
Recovery speed depends on your setup, but our goal is to minimize downtime. With our advanced BDR tools, we can achieve Recovery Time Objectives (RTO) as low as one hour and Recovery Point Objectives (RPO) as low as 15 minutes. We use image-based backups and virtual failover to restore systems quickly and efficiently.
Is my data secure during backup and recovery?
Yes. Security is a top priority in all our BDR solutions. We use AES-256 encryption, multi-factor authentication, secure data centers, and adhere to compliance standards such as HIPAA and SOC 2. Your data is protected both in transit and at rest.
What’s the difference between backup and business continuity?
Backup ensures your data is saved and recoverable, while business continuity ensures your operations can continue during and after a disruption. Clare Computer Solutions provides both, enabling your team to stay productive even if your primary systems are compromised.
Does Clare Computer Solutions offer Disaster Recovery as a Service (DRaaS)?
Yes, we offer DRaaS to provide scalable, cloud-based disaster recovery solutions. This includes automated recovery testing, virtual failover, and 24/7 monitoring. DRaaS is ideal for businesses that need high availability without investing in expensive infrastructure.
How can I tell if my current BDR plan is sufficient?
Clare Computer Solutions offers a free BDR assessment to evaluate your current strategy. We analyze your backup frequency, recovery speed, security posture, and compliance gaps, then provide a detailed report with actionable recommendations.
What industries does Clare Computer Solutions specialize in for BDR?
We serve a wide range of industries including professional services, healthcare, legal, construction, nonprofits, and manufacturing. Each industry has unique compliance and operational needs, and we tailor our BDR solutions accordingly.
