Find the Best Ways to Optimize Your Backup and Restore Program
With the tremendous growth in data, looming cybersecurity threats, and a growing emphasis on disaster preparedness, organizations are taking a hard look at their backup and restore capabilities. But where do you start when there are so many options?
OnX can help you make more informed, confident decisions about tailoring your backup and restore resources to your precise needs.
OnX’s Backup and Restore Assessment can help provide some answers. We’ll help you examine your current IT landscape, determine how well protected you are, and identify the best opportunities for optimizing your backup and restore environment.

OnX Managed Backup-as-a-Service
The need for IT staff to devote more time to core business initiatives is a common theme we hear from clients. If your company is in that position and would benefit from a fully managed backup-as-a-service, our team builds flexible managed backup-as-a-service solutions that align with your recovery objectives, risk profile, and budget.

What to Expect with the Backup and Restore Assessment
OnX’s assessment of your backup and restore capabilities includes:
- Thoroughly documented assessment processes and a predefined project outline
- A close examination of your organization’s underlying requirements — exploring the business and technology issues and priorities your backup and restore plan should cover
- Best practices discussions covering strategic direction, applications, and processes
- Potential backup and restore optimization architectures, including where these fit in your organization, their limitations, and suggested initiatives to pilot in your company
- A well-defined, strategic roadmap for data backup and restore
Assessment Flow
We start by gaining an in-depth understanding of your business requirements for backup and restore. It’s all about your business outcomes — not the technology. As we learn more about your specific needs, we apply them to core concerns like data retention, recovery times, compliance, security, and encryption. Our process:
- Pre-assessment scoping call
- Assessment kick-off meeting and workshop
- Staff interviews
- Updating and developing backup requirements
- Collecting IT environment data using either company or OnX-supplied tools
- Analyzing and verifying data
- Compiling recommendations and findings in a detailed report
- Presenting findings to your key stakeholders
