BCDR solutions for SMEs

We help SMEs protect business-critical data with fully managed continuity, backup and disaster recovery — designed, monitored and maintained so you are not left managing recovery alone.

Onsite BCDR

Protect local systems with configurable onsite continuity, backup and restore so you can recover quickly when hardware or software fails.

Backup and
offsite DR

Keep a reliable offsite copy for site-level incidents — fire, flood, theft or prolonged onsite outage — so recovery does not depend on one building.

File & folder backup

Recover individual files and folders quickly when something is deleted, corrupted or encrypted — without always restoring a whole server.

SaaS
backup

Granular backup of Microsoft 365, Google Workspace and Dropbox so email, OneDrive/Drive files and shared data can be restored when retention is not enough.

A partner you can trust

Running your own business can be challenging and time-consuming. With so many things to focus on, such as sales, marketing, HR and customer service, the last thing you need to worry about is your IT. However, if your systems went down, you fell victim to a cyber attack, or you lost your business-critical data, where would that leave you? Would you still be able to run your business as usual should the worst happen? BCDR Solutions can take away the stress and hassle of keeping your systems and data recoverable in the event of a disaster. Our expert team has many years’ experience in creating tailored BCDR services for businesses of all sizes. Related reading for SMEs: Backup for SMEs – five key things to consider.

For security and peace of mind

Businesses and organisations of all sizes need a robust business continuity, backup and disaster recovery plan for their networks, data, applications, files and folders, and Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace environments (see SaaS backup and Do you need Office 365 backup?). Without these vital safeguards, they increase the risk of cyber attack, security breaches, malware and critical data loss. These all pose enhanced compliance, financial and reputational risks. However, despite the need for BCDR, many SMEs don’t have the in-house resource or expertise to look after this vital, business-critical area. That’s where BCDR Solutions can help. We design, build, install, monitor, test and maintain the solution so you can keep operating — and recover — when an incident hits.

Why choose BCDR?

BCDR provides managed business continuity and disaster recovery to help businesses get back up and running quickly in the event of a critical data loss. Unlike other providers, our service is primarily built around ensuring business continuity, to keep downtime to a minimum so you can continue to provide an exceptional service to your customers. If you need a clearer plan for backup and recovery without building it all in-house, we can help.

Frequently asked questions

SMEs often assume cloud apps are “already backed up”, or that a single USB or NAS copy is enough. These answers cover common gaps — without scare tactics. For advice on your specific setup, book a free consultation or call 01386 898324.

We use Microsoft 365 — do we still need backup?

Yes. You own your data in Microsoft 365; retention policies are not a full backup. Accidental deletion, ransomware and misconfiguration still happen. Read Do you need Office 365 backup? and see our SaaS backup service.

What should an SME prioritise first?

Start with knowing what must be restored and how quickly (servers, shared files, email). Then combine local recovery with at least one offsite copy. Practical checklist: Backup for SMEs – five key things to consider. Service options: onsite BCDR and backup and offsite DR.

Is backup the same as business continuity?

No. Backup gives you copies. Business continuity is the plan to keep trading while systems are restored; disaster recovery is the technical restore path. Overview: What’s the difference between Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery? and Why Back-Up?.

Can you manage this for us end to end?

Yes. For SMEs without spare IT capacity, we typically design, install, monitor, test and maintain backup and recovery — including file/folder and SaaS where needed — so day-to-day care is not left on your plate. See the services on this page and file and folder backup.
