Remote Data Backups & A & C Direct IT Consulting Partner to Protect Clients’ Data

A & C Direct IT Consulting Owner James Readnower today announced it has partnered with Remote Data Backups, Inc. to provide its customers with the the most cost effective, convenient and secure way to automatically back up their data offsite.

“This is a mission-critical service every business needs,” Readnower said. “We are excited to be able to integrate Remote Data Backups into our core offerings. They have an impressive list of clients who praise their reliability — the most important aspect in data protection — and ease of use.”

One in 4 PC users suffer from data loss each year, according to a Gartner Group study. Seven of 10 small firms experiencing a major data loss go out of business within a year (DTI/PriceWaterhouse Coopers).

“We know how frequent and damaging data loss can be, and this is the best way to prevent it,” Readnower added. “Backups need to be automatic, secure and offsite. With RDB, you can rest assured your data is safe.”

Clients are encouraged to take a free 30-day trial at http://ancdirect.databu.com. Setup is simple and takes just a few minutes.

After the initial backup, nightly automatic backups compress and securely transfer only new files and block-level changes, for fast, efficient backups with minimal bandwidth usage and transfer time. With one click, you can also run backups on-demand any time, on Windows exit, or on network connection (great for laptops) backups.

Users can retrieve files via the desktop agent or securely online through the Remote File Access feature. Easy System Restore provides a full system backup to protect the operating system, program files and registry settings.

CIO Assessment Program Launched by Click Consulting

Click Consulting has created a new service helping small businesses understand the way that technology fits inside of their business, the CIO Assessment. After looking at the way technology was treated inside of their own client’s businesses, Click Consulting decided that they had to develop a system of connecting business goals and IT so that technology was no longer overhead but rather a driver of business.

“In today’s climate of tighter spending and shrinking margins, IT can become a true driver of business growth if the appropriate technologies are in place,” said Jeff Lenning, president, Click Consulting. “Our CIO Assessment program helps companies analyze their current situations and makes recommendations based on each company’s unique requirements. We keep up with the latest technologies so that our clients can focus on running their businesses.”

Most small businesses spend their time thinking about their business, not the technology that runs it. At the same time, most managed services companies just maintain the IT infrastructure without thinking about the business it exists within. Few IT service firms ever work with small businesses from a business perspective; instead everything becomes a maintenance issue so growth never occurs as a result of IT spending. Click Consulting decided that this downward spiral needed to stop.

The CIO Assessment process starts with in-depth interviews of major stakeholders and decision makers at the company to understand the business choices that are being made. Then, after a deep inspection of the technology currently used at the company, Click Consulting delivers a report complete with suggestions about how to better align technology and the business. The assessment becomes a roadmap, helping guide the growth and profits of the company over time.
