Webhosting providers tend to backup large amounts of data at once. Because of this, they usually only run weekly backups. Most Webhosting providers also charge a fee for them to restore the backup for you. If your webhost closes down or has any long downtime you will have the peace of mind that you have a backup with us. To eliminate the risk of losing data, backup daily!
Backups are usually placed on the same hard disk as the website that the backup is of. If something happened to that hard disk, your backups will be lost as well as the website. Backup processes also need to be run regularly to ensure that all the latest data is backed up. Our service eliminates those risks and give you the peace of mind that you don't have to worry about your data if something goes wrong with your website.
We offer a simple management system; we manage the servers and you take care of your backups. Our Staff monitor the server uptime and activity around the clock. If anything happens, rest assured that a Data Centre Engineer will be alerted and working on the server until the problem is solved. Weekly Security Audits and monthly staff training keeps our Staff up to date with the latest technical knowledge. Our first priority is making sure your data is safe and secure.

Our Server is located in Washington, DC. If you want to know more about our Network, please visit our Network webpage.
We offer fully unmetered premium Bandwidth and every server is connected to the internet with a 1GBps port- your only speed limit is the port speed!
We have an extensive privacy policy in place which protects your personal details and your files. If you don't want to store plain files on our server, you could use an encryption tool such as Duplicity. The archives that duplicity produces can be encrypted and signed using GnuPG, the standard for free software cryptology. The remote location will not be able to infer much about the backups other than their size and when they are uploaded. Also, if the archives are modified on the remote side, this will be detected when restoring.
You can backup as many servers as you want on our backup servers- the only limitation is the amount of backup space you have.
This risk is pretty low, our servers have redundant power supplies, redundant network connections and hard drives running in RAID. If any hard drive fails, our servers will keep running and can the failed hard drives will be replaced without risking any downtime at all. In more serious cases we might schedule maintenance to shutdown the server so that we can replace the hard drive and minimise even the slightest chance of data loss.
Yes, we may have to move you to another server but generally it's always possible to upgrade.
We accept Credit Cards, Paypal and Moneybookers.
