Hurricane Preparedness for Florida Businesses

Before storm season, STS reviews your backups, confirms offsite copies are current, checks UPS batteries and makes sure staff can work remotely through Microsoft 365. If your office loses power or has to close, your data is safe offsite and your team can keep serving customers.

Frequently Asked Questions

How often are backups taken?
Critical servers and workstations are backed up automatically on a daily schedule or more often, and Microsoft 365 data is backed up daily. We set the schedule based on how much data your business can afford to lose.

Where is my data stored?
On a local device for fast restores and in a secure cloud data center for disaster protection.

How long does recovery take?
It depends on the system and the event. Most file restores take minutes; full server recovery is measured in hours. Your recovery plan lists targets for each critical system.

Is backup included in your managed IT plans?
Yes. Backup is part of every STS business plan, starting at $149/month. See our managed IT services plans and cybersecurity services.
