Downtime. Every business owner dreads the very real possibility, yet many tempt fate and try to skimp on their backup and disaster recovery planning in an effort to save on expenses.
Downtime, for the purposes of this discussion, is defined as the loss of access to your critical data for a period of time that significantly impacts your business operations.
When it comes to downtime there are two types of costs – direct and indirect. Direct costs are fairly easy to quantify like employee productivity, salary costs, missed customer deadlines and impacted sales. Indirect costs are harder to quantify but can include reputation damage, loss of faith of customers and and loss of potential new customers. These costs are much harder to put a finger on.
Take a moment and try to estimate what a significant downtime event might cost your business. Then look below to see what other business owners thought the cost of downtime was to their business.
