Backup & recovery

Backups you have actually seen restore

A backup that has never been tested is a hope, not a plan. We back up Microsoft 365, servers and critical laptops to immutable storage in Canada, and we prove it works every quarter.

What's included

  • Microsoft 365 backup for Exchange, OneDrive, SharePoint and Teams, three times daily
  • Image-level server backup with local and cloud copies
  • Immutable, encrypted copies that ransomware and rogue admins cannot delete
  • Storage in Toronto and Montréal data centres only
  • Quarterly restore tests with a written result for your records
  • Documented recovery time and recovery point objectives agreed with you
  • Annual tabletop disaster recovery exercise with your leadership team (Enterprise)

Recover in hours, not weeks

Critical servers can be spun up in our Canadian cloud within hours while the original hardware is repaired or replaced.

Deleted is not gone

Restore a single email, a folder from last Tuesday, or an entire mailbox from a departed employee.

Proof for auditors and insurers

Every restore test is logged and reported, which is exactly what cyber insurers and auditors want to see.

FAQ

Questions about backup & recovery

Doesn't Microsoft already back up our data?

Microsoft keeps the service running, but its retention for deleted items is limited and it will not help you recover from ransomware that encrypts your files or an employee who deletes a SharePoint site. A separate backup closes that gap.

How long do you keep backups?

Our standard retention is one year for Microsoft 365 and 90 days of daily server restore points, with longer retention available for legal or regulatory needs.
