A reliable backup solution is non-negotiable in today’s business environment. Whether it’s ransomware, hardware failure, or accidental deletion, data loss can bring operations to a halt. Datto is a trusted name in backup and disaster recovery, especially for small businesses that need enterprise-grade protection without the complexity.
One best practice is to adopt a hybrid cloud backup strategy. This means backing up data locally for quick restores and also to the cloud for resilience in case of local disasters. Datto’s solution automatically performs both, ensuring you can recover files, applications, or entire systems with minimal downtime.
Another key practice is to test backups regularly. Too often, businesses assume backups are working until they try to restore and realize data is missing or corrupted. Automated testing and verification, which Datto provides, helps eliminate this risk.
Ransomware protection is also built into the Datto platform. Backups are immutable, meaning they cannot be altered or encrypted by ransomware, which ensures a clean recovery point is always available.
Implementing Datto isn’t just about software—it requires a plan. Identify your critical data, determine acceptable recovery time objectives, and document your process. With a clear policy and a reliable backup tool, you’ll be prepared for whatever comes your way.
