Downtime is not a question of it happens, but when it happens.
Is your business a downtime statistic?
- 24% of companies said they experienced a full data disaster?
- 44% of small businesses have been a victim of a cyber attack?
- Do average midsize companies have 16 to 20 hours of network, system, or application downtime per year?
Data loss means downtime, and downtime will impact your bottom line.
To be unprepared is not worth the risk. Many compliance regulations, like HIPAA, require a data backup and data recovery plan. 70% of small businesses that experience a major data loss go out of business within a year. The average SMB can expect to lose about $100,000 worth of revenue in unexpected downtime annually. The average downtime cost is estimated at $8,000 per hour. Considering that average downtime lasts 7 hours, that number goes over $60,000 of loss, not to mention the loss of employee productivity, morale, and possibly your reputation.

Protecting your data is protecting your business. You have business insurance to cover damages to your building and to protect your employees – why not business data? You may end up using your backup and disaster recovery solution before you’ll use your insurance.
No two businesses are the same. How much downtime can your business afford? Seconds, minutes, days, weeks?
