Backups That Actually Restore
The Test Nobody Runs Most small businesses think they have backups. There’s a drive in the corner, a cloud subscription, or a button someone clicked last year. It all feels fine — until the day you actually need the data back. That’s when the truth comes out: the backup was empty, broken, or weeks out […]
Printers Don’t Have to Ruin Mornings (or Payroll)

Why Small Businesses Still Need Backups, Even with Cloud Apps
The Cloud Isn’t a Backup Many small businesses assume that using cloud apps like Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, or QuickBooks Online means they don’t need backups. After all, the data lives “in the cloud,” right? But cloud platforms protect against system failure — not user error, deletion, or malicious attacks. That’s why backups are still […]
Slow Computers? Why Managed IT Beats Break-Fix
