Tranquil PC's Weblog and other thoughts

You know in excess of 55% of the sales of our Home Servers (as far as we know) are actually in use, protecting and supporting small businesses !

Of course larger offices will no doubt be using other Microsoft Server OS, but for small business, it seems WHS is a real winner !!

Some useful facts……

· In the UK there are 1.7M businesses with under 10 employees.
· 98% of all business do not carry out a daily data backup.
· 55% of file backups that are carried out are incomplete.
· 55% of data backup restore processes fail.

· By the 7th day of a major data loss, companies experience a 25% loss in overall income. By the 25^th day it is 40%.   For modern businesses with IT based systems, the effects are losses are more aggressive.
· 43% of companies that experience a severe data loss and that have no data backup plan in place never re-open.
· Even those companies that try to recover could be out of business within 2 years of major data loss,
according to a study by the National Archives and Records Administration

All worrying stuff really, and data often used by PC backup software companies to sell their products.

But why sell the ‘fear factor’ alone – a Tranquil WHS based server, offers not just ‘security’ but a whole lot more !

We’ve put together a small ‘learn more’ web page,  simply showing how the Tranquil server, can and should be used in any one of those potential 1.7M small business !

Any feedback, most welcomed.
