Yes.  Backup and Disaster Recovery has come a long way from the days of the unreliable Tape Backup System.  Today, vendors are producing Backup Software that allows you to make an IMAGE of a Windows Server Operating System with all its configuration settings intact.

 

It also allows you to restore to different hardware, so if your server encounters a physical problem, your Windows Server IMAGE can be restored to different physical hardware without having to wait for replacement parts or ordering a brand new server.

 

Can I see it work in my office?

Yes.  We are currently offering a FREE onsite demonstration thru 9/30/09 of the Kaseya Backup and Disaster Recovery System in conjunction with the Kaseya Managed Services software that allows ACS to remotely manage, monitor and support our clients PCs and Servers with the Kaseya Remote Control Software.

Disasters take all shapes and forms from Fires & Floods to Server crashes and corruptions that makes running your business impossible without access to the data that you depend on.  Because a disaster can COST your business dearly, many business owners are re-evaluating their Business Continuity Plans and replacing their Tape Backup Systems with a more advanced Backup and Disaster Recovery System that gets their business going again in hours and not days.

Can you recover your Business if a Disaster Strikes?

What’s wrong with Tape Backup?

Can I still recover using my Tape Backup System?

Is there a better way?

If you have a meeting setup and your invitees have declined to come, it’s obviously an irritation for them to then receive an Email message confirming the cancellation of the meeting.  Instead, you can delete the meeting without sending a notification.

 

1. Right click the meeting and then click Delete.

2. In the notification Email message, delete all the addresses from the TO field, and type your own Email address instead.

3. Click Send.
