Online Backup for Accountants, Lawyers and Architects
Accountants, Lawyers and Architects
In terms of online data backup, what makes professional organisations such as accountants,
lawyers and architects special, is their increasing reliance on computers to process and store
information and data. Accountants need to manage their own and their clients data.
Lawyers produce large amounts of case data, with multiple versions of documents. Architects
are characterised by their increasing volumes of drawing data.
Fee income for all professionals is related to the productivity of staff and partners.
And if billable staff are non-productive, it can impact directly on the bottom line of the
business.
There are liability and other legal issues to consider when much of the work involves dealing
with important and client confidential data, data which might not be properly protected.
Perhaps one final factor is that most firms rely heavily on their professional reputation for
continuity of business and for winning new clients.
So what price lost client data, lost productivity and damaged reputation?
Online Backup Business Benefits
Online backup provides a hassle-free, reliable and effective way of dealing with the critical
task yet non-core task of protecting business data.
Online backup ensures:
- No lost productivity in case of data loss - case files, client financials and drawings
can be recovered within minutes.
- Reduced professional liability insurance fees because of the additional protection
provided to 3rd party business records and the reduced risk of litigation.
- Reassurance that your professional reputation will not be damaged by accidental loss of
client data.
- Peace-of-mind knowing your data is always backed up and recoverable in a fast,
secure and hassle-free way - and that you are not paying internal staff to perform this
mundane task.
Plus for those that work with shared data:

of online backup.
- Share files between office and home office environments.
- Access backed up files when at client sites or when travelling using a secure web-browser
access.
