A failure isn't 'if', it's 'when'.
Disaster recovery is more than backup — it's a plan and a proven ability to get back to work in minutes, not days, after a failure, attack or fire. We build it on Veeam, with a defined RTO and RPO and regularly tested recovery.
You have a copy of the data. But can you get back to work?
Backup answers whether the data survived. Disaster recovery — whether the business keeps running. After a serious failure, restoring files isn't enough: you have to bring up servers, networking, applications and identity, in the right order and on time. Without a plan that's improvisation under pressure, with a loss counter ticking in the background.
What we do
- Disaster recovery plan with a set RTO and RPO per system
- Offsite replication — an environment ready to start outside your premises
- Veeam Instant Recovery — boot a machine from backup in minutes
- Veeam Cloud Connect and immutable copies, ransomware-resistant
- Recovery order: what comes up first so the business runs
- Periodic recovery drills with a report
- Business continuity support for NIS2
How we work
- Analysis — which systems are critical and what their downtime costs
- Targets — we set RTO and RPO; they drive the plan and the cost
- Implementation — replication, procedures, recovery order
- Drills — test recoveries and reports, on a cycle
DR is built on backup we run as a service — see managed backup. Together they give full resilience: the data is there and the business gets back to work.

Frequently asked questions
How is disaster recovery different from backup?
Backup is a copy of data — it answers "do we have the data". Disaster recovery is the ability to restore a whole working environment after a failure — it answers "how fast are we working again". Backup without a DR plan means the data exists but the business is down for days. We handle both.
What are RTO and RPO?
RTO (Recovery Time Objective) is how long the return to operation may take. RPO (Recovery Point Objective) is how much data you can lose, counting back from the failure. These two numbers drive the whole DR project and its cost — we set them with you up front, based on what an hour of downtime actually costs you.
How fast can an environment be recovered?
With Veeam Instant Recovery a machine can boot directly from backup within minutes — we offer plans with RTO under 15 minutes for critical systems. Less critical ones we recover more slowly and more cheaply. We match the pace to the importance of the system, not the other way around.
Do you test the plan, or just write it down?
We test it — and that's the point. A DR plan nobody verified is an assumption, not a safeguard. We run periodic recovery drills and you get a report from each. We'd rather the first real recovery wasn't the first one ever.
What does a day of downtime cost you?
