Once you decide on which files are the most important to be backed up and where the best place is to back up these files, it is important to decide who is the best person to handle this information.  This is extremely important in that you want to trust that your information is being handled properly and securely.  You want to be sure that your data will be there for you when you need it.

According to ETech7, “The servers you use to back up your data will need to be effectively managed if they are going to operate effectively. This kind of support needs to be performed by properly trained people who know your goals in keeping backup servers. If your IT department isn’t up to the task for any reason, this alone may be a solid enough reason to justify outsourcing your Business data backup.”
