Tom Dugdale-Shutts • July 1, 2024

Choosing the right backup and recovery solution is important for any business, and here at 1-Fix we understand that it is not a one-size-fits-all situation. That's why we offer three varied levels of data protection.

Backup Plan:

  • Suitable for businesses needing a simple, reliable backup solution.
  • Provides a full system backup to the cloud with 1 backup per day.
  • Offers 28 days of data retention and up to 2TB of off-site storage per server.


Disaster Recovery Plan:

  • Suitable for businesses needing a more frequent and comprehensive backup solution.
  • Provides a full system backup to the cloud with 4 backups per day.
  • Offers 60 days of data retention and up to 2TB of off-site storage per server.
  • Includes a local data store (Hybrid backup) for faster recovery time objective (RTO).
  • Includes quarterly restore tests of the backup data.


Business Continuity Plan:

  • Suitable for businesses needing the best backup and recovery solution available.
  • Provides a full system backup to the cloud with 12 backups per day.
  • Offers 90 days of data retention and up to 2TB of off-site storage per server.
  • Includes a local data store (Hybrid backup).
  • Includes monthly restore tests and daily “screenshot verification” of the backup data.
  • Includes a standby virtual machine in Microsoft Azure for quick disaster recovery restoration.
  • Covers the cost of running your server(s) in Azure for up to 30 days in the event of a disaster.


Please note that additional time on Azure will be billed at Microsoft Azure’s published rates.
