CI-Net racks up for new data service offering!
It is an unfortunate fact that 80% of businesses that suffer a major disaster and lose critical data services do not recover. Keeping a copy of critical data and systems off site does not need to be expensive – but it is essential.
CI-Net’s dedicated hosting centre is an ideal location to cost effectively outsource your remote systems and business critical data.
Our remote back-up service allows you to backup data to secure and encrypted storage for a per machine monthly fee, while our remote replication service can store virtualised images of your servers with replicated changes at our hosting centre - the gold standard in complete Windows system recovery.
