The company offers an innovative, affordable, automatic, offsite backup and recovery solution using your existing high-speed internet connection.

According to recent studies, about 75% of businesses do not always perform backups leaving them vulnerable to a number of disasters including:

- Technical disasters such as, hard drive crashes and failures
- Human disasters such as, accidental or deliberate changes to data, theft of equipment or damage to the system by disgruntled employees.
- Natural disasters such as hurricanes, floods and fire.
- Laptop disasters such as loss, theft of equipment or damage caused by spilled liquid.

Research has shown that a large percentage of businesses do not have a backup solution in place. The few businesses that do, store copies of their data on portable drives, or on CDs.  In many instances, these copies are left at the office; the same place where if disaster strikes both the original and backup copies are destroyed. In addition, backups are done irregularly thus leaving the company vulnerable to data loss and unfortunately, the inability to recover data.
