Desktop and laptop backup

    Desktop and laptop backup protects small-business work kept on individual computers. It starts from £10 per device per month.

    An external backup drive and its cable

    Monthly starting prices exclude VAT and are based on a 3 year term billed monthly. Shorter terms cost a little more. Your price is confirmed in a written quote.

    What is included

    • A complete machine image, not just the documents folder.
    • Automatic daily backup testing.
    • Offline backup copies kept out of reach of ransomware.
    • Individual-file recovery or restoration onto replacement hardware.

    Who it is for

    Laptops that leave the office and computers holding work outside OneDrive or SharePoint. It complements cloud backup rather than replacing it.

    Questions about this service

    Is OneDrive enough for a whole PC?

    No. It does not by itself capture every installed application, setting or local folder.

    Can one deleted file be restored?

    Yes, individual-file recovery is part of the service, subject to a successful retained backup.

    Does a travelling laptop need to connect?

    A device must connect sufficiently for its backup to complete. We agree the practical requirements.

    Can you restore onto a new computer?

    Whole-machine recovery onto replacement hardware is available, subject to compatibility and the recovery assessment.
