Every business needs a backup — but most backups can't actually be restored when you need them. Smart Geeks builds tested, reliable recovery plans so you can bounce back from anything, fast.
A backup is only worth what it can restore. We see it constantly — businesses with backup software running green checks, who discover during a crisis that their last successful restore was months ago, or that the backup was corrupted, or that the backup ran out of storage space and stopped three weeks ago. Here's what a real recovery plan looks like.
Your physical and virtual servers, plus every workstation that matters, backed up automatically. Images and files, retention policies that match your compliance needs, and verified restore tests every month.
Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace store your data — but they don't protect you from accidental deletion, ransomware, or insider threats. We add the backup layer that Microsoft and Google don't provide.
Ransomware encrypts everything — including your backups if they can be reached. Immutable backups are write-once, read-many — even if an attacker compromises your network, they cannot modify or delete your backup copies.
A disaster recovery plan isn't a document — it's a tested playbook your team can execute when everything is on fire. We build your DR plan, test it quarterly, and update it as your environment changes.
When something goes wrong — a server fails, ransomware hits, an office burns down — every minute of downtime costs money. We design recovery environments so you can be back online in hours, not days.
You should never have to wonder whether your backups are working. We monitor every backup job, send monthly reports on backup status and storage usage, and investigate any failure within minutes.
60% of small businesses that lose data shut down within 6 months. Not because the data itself was irreplaceable — but because the downtime, recovery costs, and customer trust gap were too much to survive. The math is simple: a tested DR plan costs a fraction of what data loss actually costs.
We review your current backup situation — what's being backed up, where it's stored, how long restores take, and what the gaps are. You get a written assessment with priorities.
Critical gaps are fixed first. We deploy proper backup agents, configure immutable storage, and set up monitoring so you know immediately when something fails.
We document your DR plan and test it — for real, in a sandbox environment. When a real disaster happens, there's no guesswork. Your team knows exactly what to do.
