SAN JOSE, CA — (Marketwire) — 12/19/12 — If you weren-t worried about because the Mayan calendar suggests the end of the world on Friday, it-s time to rethink your strategy. Despite countless theories about an impending apocalypse, scientists have found no evidence of a galactic alignment or polar shift that will obliterate life as we know it on December 21, 2012. Therefore, ® urges small to mid-sized businesses to adopt a now, and test it regularly to ensure business continuity in a real disaster.
While the apocalypse has not yet been officially penciled in, the past few years have born witness to a number of disasters in their own right. Small to mid-sized businesses have sustained dramatic losses due to tornadoes, hurricanes and other weather-related disasters. But the truth is, any event that causes hours or days of downtime — including office fire or flood, or hardware failure — is a disaster for a small to mid-sized business. IDC estimates downtime costs as much as $70,000 an hour, and a recent CIO Pulse survey found that it takes an average of seven hours to resume normal operations after downtime. These are devastating statistics for small to mid-sized businesses.
Quorum, the leading provider of one-click backup, recovery and continuity for small to mid-sized businesses, understands this challenge. Its solutions eclipse traditional stand-alone tape or disk backup solutions by bringing data, applications and systems back up within minutes, effectively dodging expensive downtime. Furthermore, Quorum enables automatic and on-demand testing, eliminating the historically long and torturous testing process associated with other solutions.
“Should disaster strike, it may actually seem like the end of the world for a small to mid-sized business that has no in place, and that experiences hours or days of downtime,” said Larry Lang, CEO, Quorum. “That-s why deploying a disaster recovery solution that enables instant recovery of data, applications and systems — and ensuring the solution-s regular testing — is a safety net these companies can-t afford to go without.”
