What's Included With Backup & Disaster Recovery

The Data Nobody Thinks About

When we review backups for new West Palm Beach clients, the server is usually covered. Laptops and desktops often are not. Yet that’s where people save scans, drafts, downloads and files they “were going to move later.”

When a laptop is stolen from a car, a drive fails or coffee meets keyboard, that data is gone.

How We Protect Workstation Data

Find what’s local. We check what is stored on each device.
Redirect where possible. Desktop and documents folders synced to OneDrive or SharePoint, so files follow the user.
Back up where needed. Devices with local data or specialized applications get managed backup.
Encrypt. Lost devices don’t expose company or client data.
Monitor. Our team watches backup jobs and follows up on failures.

Replacing a Device Without Losing a Day

With files synced and devices managed, a replacement laptop can be set up quickly and the employee picks up where they left off. See PC and server backup.

The Technical Side

How workstation data is protected:

Known Folder Move: Desktop, Documents and Pictures redirected to OneDrive automatically, with version history
Policy: users guided to save to SharePoint, Teams or OneDrive instead of local-only folders
Device backup: agent-based backup for computers that hold local data or specialized software
Encryption: BitLocker or FileVault so data on lost devices stays unreadable
Autopilot rebuilds: replacement laptops that set themselves up and resync files
Monitoring: alerts when sync or backup stops working on a device

Data Backup in West Palm Beach: Common Questions

Aren't our files already on the server or in the cloud?

Not always. Desktops, downloads folders and local application data often hold important files that are not backed up anywhere else. We check what is actually stored on each device.

What happens if a laptop is lost or stolen?

With encryption, the data is protected from whoever has the device. With backup or syncing, your employee can be working on a replacement with their files quickly.

Do you back up every computer?

Not necessarily. For many businesses, moving files to OneDrive or SharePoint is enough. Workstation backup is recommended for devices with local data or specialized software.

Does backup slow down computers?

Backups run quietly in the background and are scheduled to minimize impact.

Is OneDrive syncing the same as backup?

Not entirely. OneDrive keeps versions and a recycle bin for a limited time, which covers many everyday mistakes. A separate Microsoft 365 backup adds longer retention and protection if the account itself is compromised.

What about data on personal devices?

Company data should live in company systems. We can protect company apps and files on personal phones and computers without managing the whole device.
