4 Challenges MSPs Face with Disaster Recovery

Challenge #1

Costly BDR hardware and software requirements• Vendor-specific hardware appliances• Field deployed appliances are hard to upgrade• Expensive Windows operating system components• Many BDR vendors force long-term contracts

6 © 2015 eFolder, Inc. All Rights Reserved.

Challenge #2

Chain-based backup problems• Risky – single base image and extensive chain dependency• Lengthy chains and retention policies• Requires reseeding the base image

7 © 2015 eFolder, Inc. All Rights Reserved.

Challenge #3

Ongoing labor and management• No automatic verification of backups• Feature-light management portals• Poor reporting and integration with PSA tools

8 © 2015 eFolder, Inc. All Rights Reserved.

Challenge #4

Unreliable backups – no guarantee of recoverability• Incrementals and chains are not verified• Virtualization and recoverability is not actually tested• Corruption of operating system can render backups useless
