?

In order to give you a correct calculation we need to get an idea of how much data you have in your system across your organization.
How much data do you have on critical business systems?

?

From when disaster strikes, how long does it take you to assess the situation, access your backups, and start the recovery process?
How long does it take to initiate your recovery process?

?

Storing your data locally is designed for fast data transfers, however you are at risk if there is a disaster in the office such as fire, floods or theft. Cloud data is stored off-site, such as in a CloudTek9 data center, which brings an extra level of availability albeit at a slower speed for full bare metal restores.
Where do you currently store your backups?

?

Speed of cloud recovery comes down to the amount of data you are trying to recover and your download speed. Devices with slower connections will take longer to recover.
