How would your business cope in the event of an IT problem? Do you have a proper recovery plan? The impact of disasters like fires, floods, hardware failures or thefts can threaten your business. Sadly, too often, the full impact of the damage is only realised after it happens.

Backup

Even businesses which think they’re protected are often vulnerable. How strong are your backup systems? Does your backup really work? Has a restore been tested? How long would it take to replace your main server and your backup device? Can you make sure that your current backup tape can be read by a newer device, if at all?

One of the first things we’ll do for you is make sure your existing backup systems are resilient before looking at better options to help you save money.

Virtualisation and disaster recovery

Running your IT on virtual servers lets you remotely backup your entire server, including data and configuration. If you do have a problem, if you’re using VMWare, you’ll be able to:

  • Restore a full working machine in the time it takes to restore from backup media.
  • Restore onto a completely different server.
  • In some cases, be up-and-running the same day.

This, in conjunction with new backup technologies by Veeam, Symantec and Acronis, restoration has never been easier.

Client Feedback

When we started the business, we chose Bowker IT straight away as we knew the team would get the job done. From recommending Cloud Storage - to allow us to have access to a server and our email at a low cost no matter where we are in the world - right through to remotely accessing our computers when we have problems, they have provided exactly what we need to operate our business efficiently. They are friendly, straight talking, approachable and always ensure any issues are sorted out quickly, which allows us to concentrate on running the business. They have become a valuable part of our company and I’d happily recommend them to other businesses looking for support as they grow.

Laura Mashiter, Refresh PR

Client Feedback

We are extremely happy with the service we have received from Bowker IT, right from the start they were clear and helpful in implementing our IT upgrade. Unlike other companies I have worked with, they kept us in the loop and kept the conversations jargon free and non patronising. The installation was quick, painless and passed without disruption to our work, and they are very quick to provide off and on site support, even for relatively small issues. I would definitely recommend them to any of our clients with similar requirements.

Dominic Williams, Fat Media Limited

Client Feedback

"The Engineers from Bowker IT were very professional and made sure that the solution fit our requirements. The install was done during quiet time but we still had a large number of people coming in and out, they were not disrupted and work was done to a high safety standard."
