Data Backup & Transfer

The cost of data backup and recovery varies based on factors like data volume and recovery complexity. Backup services typically range from $50 to $200 per year for cloud-based solutions, depending on storage capacity, while data recovery can cost $100–$300 for simple cases and $500 or more for complex issues. We offer transparent pricing with free estimates before starting any work, so you’ll know exactly what to expect.

Yes, in many cases, deleted data can be recovered. If the data is not overwritten, our data recovery services can help retrieve it from your hard drive or cloud storage. However, it’s important to act quickly because the longer you wait, the greater the risk of permanent loss.

It’s recommended to back up your data regularly, depending on how often you create or modify important files. For most people, a weekly backup is sufficient. For businesses or users with rapidly changing data, daily or hourly backups may be necessary to ensure you don’t lose important information.

The best way to store backups is to use a 3-2-1 backup strategy:

• 3 copies of your data: One primary copy and two backups.
• 2 different media types: For example, one on an external hard drive and one on the cloud.
• 1 off-site backup: Store one backup in a secure location, like a cloud service or remote server, to protect against physical damage like fires or theft.

This strategy ensures data redundancy and safety.

Yes, using a hybrid backup solution that combines cloud backup and physical drives is an excellent approach. Cloud backups provide off-site storage, while external hard drives or NAS devices offer quick access to your data. This combination ensures you have multiple recovery options in case of data loss.

The duration of data recovery depends on the type of data loss and the complexity of the issue. Simple recovery tasks, such as recovering deleted files, may take only a few hours. More complex cases, such as recovering data from a damaged hard drive or corrupted files, may take longer. Our experts work efficiently to ensure fast recovery without compromising quality.

Yes, cloud backup is secure when done correctly. Reputable cloud backup providers use encryption to protect your data both during transfer and while stored on their servers. However, it’s essential to choose a trusted provider with strong security protocols, such as end-to-end encryption and multi-factor authentication.

If your backup fails, don’t panic. We offer data recovery services to retrieve your lost data. A failed backup can happen for several reasons, such as insufficient storage, corruption, or a malfunctioning device. We’ll analyze the issue and attempt to restore your backup or recover your data from other sources.

Regularly test your backups to ensure they are working correctly. Perform a backup restoration test to check that the data is intact and can be recovered without issues. Additionally, verify that your backup software is running on schedule and not encountering errors. Setting up automatic backups ensures that your data is regularly backed up without manual intervention.
