Backups & Disaster Recovery Brentwood FAQ
Doesn't Microsoft 365 back itself up?
No, not really. Microsoft's default retention is short and aimed at recovering recently deleted items. For proper protection (especially from ransomware or accidental admin deletions) you need a third-party Microsoft 365 backup solution.
How often do you test backups?
For managed clients, we run monthly file-level test restores and full disaster recovery tests at least annually. Untested backups are not real backups.
How long does it take to recover from a backup?
It depends on the data volume and what failed. A single file restore takes minutes. A full server restore can take hours. We'll design the solution so the recovery time matches what your business can tolerate.
