Datto offers a strong lineup of backup solutions, but picking the right one means matching it to how your business operates and how much downtime you can tolerate.
Start by figuring out your recovery time objective (RTO) and recovery point objective (RPO). Do you need data back in minutes? Hours? Can you afford to lose a day’s worth of files? Then, look at whether you need appliance-based, cloud-only, or hybrid options.
Datto SIRIS, for example, is ideal for businesses that need local and cloud redundancy. It can virtualize systems directly from the appliance, minimizing downtime. For smaller setups or highly mobile teams, Datto ALTO may be more cost-effective without sacrificing reliability.
Regulated industries should consider Datto’s features for immutable backups, compliance tracking, and encrypted storage. Centralized dashboards are especially helpful for IT teams managing multiple sites or remote offices.
And don’t just set it and forget it. Test your backup and recovery process regularly. Make sure your staff knows who to call and what steps to take. Datto gives you the tools, but the strategy is still yours to own.
Choosing the right Datto solution isn’t just about specs. It’s about aligning your risk tolerance with a tool that works when it matters most.
