Here are some statistics about backups and data loss:
- 30% of all businesses that have a major fire go out of business within a year. 70% fail within five years of the fire. (Source: Home Office Computing Magazine)
- 31% of PC users have lost all of their files due to events beyond their control. (Source: Home Office Computing Magazine)
- 34% of companies fail to test their tape backups, and of those that do, 77% have found tape back-up failures. (Source: Home Office Computing Magazine)
- 93% of companies that lost their data center for 10 days or more due to a disaster filed for bankruptcy within one year of the disaster. 50% of businesses that found themselves without data management for this same time period filed for bankruptcy immediately.

- Over 1,000,000 viruses have been identified, and an estimated 400 are created each month. (Source: International Computer Security Association Labs)
- ALL drives fail, regardless of brand or type. Therefore data loss does not happen ‘if’ your hard drive fails, it happens ‘when’ it fails. Although Orion Business Technology Inc. and other consulting professionals offer data recovery services, these services cost considerably more than the Orion Backup service and there is no guarantee of successful recovery.
Orion Business Technology Inc. can design a backup system that will protect you data against mechanical failure, user error, fire/water damage, and acts of nature. Online, NAS, Hard Disk, and Tape based systems can be implemented in multiple combinations in your office. These systems are then monitored daily for success by either your staff or ours. Periodic test restores are done to assure that your data is retrievable. With our backup system, you can sleep well at night knowing that your data is protected.
