In the event of disaster: system failure, natural disaster, human theft or error, it's imperative that your IT systems continue to operate as usual. Our cloud-based service provides the technology and expertise to bring IT systems back online.

Our online portal gives you the ability to manage, test and report on the disaster recovery service at any time. We make sure you have complete control of failover testing, ensuring that you can remain confident in the platform and its capabilities.
We offer full support, both proactive and reactive, to ensure your disaster recovery testing is as effective as possible.

Our systems provide automated failback, so in the event of a real disaster or test, systems will be seamlessly restored once the problem is resolved, or test ended. The technology we use on the platform works efficiently to ensure failback is as quick and as straightforward as possible with no resultant issues.
