Information is a critical part of day-to-day
operations and quick access to our member information
is vital. DS3 DataVaulting provides an approach to redundant
backup services that cannot be matched with a typical
tapestore or offsite tape storage plan. DS3 DataVaulting
provides instant access to all of our information that
has been stored at their offsite datacenter at a click
of a button!
[We used to use] the typical DAT tape setup controlled
by one of our in house servers. Time was always an
issue or tapes wore out, plus not only were we dependant
on the tape devices doing what they were supposed to
do, we also had to depend on the server that the DAT
drive was installed into. I looked into multiple tape
store solutions but I still would've needed to rotate
the tapes weekly and the upfront cost is VERY high.
I also looked into offsite pickup and delivery of our
backup tapes by a company, the reoccurring cost of
that service was staggering.
I met Idris Grant with DS3 DataVaulting when he was
setting up the datacenter facility. After talking to
him and seeing how the service worked I saw no other
comparable solution for RILA.
My experience has been great and I would recommend
it to any small, medium or large business looking to
upgrade from archaic tape store systems of the past.
The cost for the service is very reasonable. DS3 DataVaulting
was able to comply with my budget and on occasion is
below projected cost estimates. The change over was
quick, easy and the DS3 DataVaulting techs made sure
I understood how the system worked!
With DS3 DataVaulting I am able to control all of
my backup and restore needs from my workstation and
I receive detailed daily logs to let me know all my
information is safe in case the worst happens!”
