How midsize businesses can get ahead by backing up.
As the engines of a smarter planet, midsize companies are faced with exponential data growth in their business operations. Losing information isn't an option. Yet with tighter budgets, midsize companies find it difficult to maintain a reliable in-house data backup and recovery system. That's why IBM and its Business Partners are using the power of the cloud to offer enterprise-level data protection designed to reduce your risk and meet your budget. With cloud-based backup from IBM, a smarter infrastructure helps ensure that your data is continuously backed up in one of IBM's 150 data centers worldwide-so the moment files are saved, they're protected. Anywhere. Anytime. Just go on with your business, and IBM will take care of the rest. Here's how it works:
Highlights
Lower your total cost of ownership by up to 40%. Work with an IBM Business Partner to compare your in-house system to a scalable IBM-managed cloud service that avoids capital expenditures.
Enjoy security-rich, automated backup. Data is backed up the moment files are saved.
Get what you need, when you need it. In the cloud, your data is readily available so you can make smarter business decisions and increase productivity.
Free up valuable resources. 95% of your savings are derived from focusing IT staff on more strategic initiatives instead of routine maintenance, as well as reducing backup hardware, software, and tape media.
SmartCloud Managed Backup is designed and priced with midsize companies in mind.
